i got off of tampa racing along time ago. all they do over there is bicker back and forth about what some did to their car but then never post a pic or get all defensive when someone says something about them.

815 bank of amercia it is.

I am also on TR. But ever since I bought the G, I rarely go on TR or OrlandoForums or any other forum now. G35Driver is the one for me.

It's hard enough to keep up with one forum... Damn, I really should get back to work. G35driver.com has made me less productive!

TR has become more of a social forum with a huge amount of morons. Need 2 Speed is where all the Big Dawgs (10.99 and lower 1/4 time) moved to.

No...not 10.99 and lower. Look at their 1/4mile sheet. There are only a few guys that have had a 10second pass. But there are a lot of 11 and 12 second cars. My buddy used to go out with them every Saturday night and race his '98 Mustang GT with a 5.4L swap and a Vortech S-trim. Can we say fast? But Need2Speed is a cool website with a great new idea. King of the Streets. You guys should check out their site.

I'm pretty sure it's a mostly Tampa forum. If anyone remembers seeing a video on the internet of a few cars toying with a red Ferrari Enzo, that was the guys from Need2Speed recording.

Sounds like a fair turnout expected. I just got my car back from the shop, after having the hood repainted due to some chip damage, and it looks great! I highly recommend Frank's Auto on 49th Street in Clearwater. He also painted that black trim attached to the mirror/body for me to match the rest of the car. I hope to make it down, but might not be able to fight the urge to keep the car in the garage when I get home. Should be installing the replacement clear bra sometime in the next few. If I don't see you guys tonight, enjoy the wings!

I'm not saying everyone there is 10.99 and lower. I'm saying all the guys capable of that time moved from TR to Need2Speed. Many of the fastest cars of the area are down right now, but are expected to be up and running very soon. There are going to be quite a few very good races in the future. I used to go out and run with many of those guys on a regular basis, but since I don't really street race anymore, I lost the urge.

I agree it was fun meeting everyone and putting actual faces and names with the screen names we see all the time. If I was here full time I would definately do it more often, kind of like what the O-town guys do I guess.
