I work at a Fab shop,so deals come and go all the time,plus doing everything myself saves me tons of $$$ I do my own engine builds,also my own transmission rebuilds aswell as fab up anything that i think about..
here's my whip,went from a 5speed with a twin disk to an auto and N20 and picked up 8tenths :):

Not all in this car, but i think off the top of my head,

Blackhawk
Autobahn
Seca
Road America (bmw event)

and of course the panoz private test track. I haven't been i about 2 years I think. I am due. I just don't feel like buying new brakes,tires,clutch and all after beating the crap out of it on the track.

oh and thanks. I love the new caddie ctsv would rock that over a vet.

if you are talking about the sound from the car, it sounds like a fing jet plane. I got stopped in the city by cops who just want to check it out. Its real hard for them to say I have an after market exhaust thats to loud when they have no idea what "stock" would even be.

here was one of my favorites
I am parked in a 15 minute zone legally with my blinkers on. I come out to see a cop walking around my car. She is like I am going to write you a ticket. I was like why I am legally parked. She is like "you don't have a front plate and that illegal here, I am trying to write you a ticket, but can't find what kind of car this is, what kind of car is it. I looked at her shrugged my shoulders and said I have no idea, good luck with that. She got pissed and walked away because she couldn't fill out the ticket and knew it would be tossed. I was laughing the entire way home. 1 for the little guy!
