So myself, Pro skater Nick Dompierre, and Dick from Best of Show went and scooped up the Firebird from Anaheim the other day. She had a small issue.. and needed some TLC.

The guys at Best of Show threw her on the rack... and Dick worked his magic. In no time... keys were thrown to Nick (runs a low 8 sec camaro on a regularly
basis..) and put some shake down miles on her today.

She is ridiculously ridiculous. lol... I really don't think the Perrelli P Zero's are the right tire for this car!! haha. :rofl:

Here are a couple little vids of her. As you can see in the first... she like to spin the tires. :unibrow:

Some guys have all the fun!:thumbsup: I wish I would have seen the job posting for the All Speed factory test pilot!

That's why I live in Michigan - so that I can watch other people drive my car in the winter.

Looks and sounds awesome.

Have fun and send more footage!

It’s been a while since the last post but we’ve had a ton of fun the last couple of months. The car has been in S. Cal since the beginning of the year where Dick from Best of Show and car guys (and pro skaters) Josh Kalis and Nick Dompierre helped with the initial break in. They also ran it at RTTC2 and had a great time. Due to having the completely wrong tires it will not connect in 1st or 2nd. I’ve attached a few videos where you can see Nick pushing the first two gears hard but it finally connected in 3rd. Solution – a pair of Nitto’s widest NT05’s get mounted on Monday and we are going to set up the front suspension a bit more aggressive for additional autocross events this summer. We are also adding a DSE sway bar to the quadralink in the rear. The car is heavy but with these tweaks and some more time behind the wheel we should be competitive. I live 10 miles from Grattan Raceway and will be spending some time out there getting to know the car. Other than a few minutes in Dec., I haven’t driven it yet and cannot wait. It ships back to MI next week!

So far we will be running at Run to Music City (Nashville) in May, Motor State Challenge (Michigan) in June, Goodguys Nationals (Columbus) in July and the Performance Car Challenge (Joliet) in July. Hope to see some of you there!

Here are some pics of Kalis’ Camaro that was featured in this month’s Camaro Performers and the Firebird. Kalis and Dompierre been having fun doing the local S. Cal events. I’ve also included a few clips of the RTTC2 event.
