It's been a long time since i've been here,but now i'm back.I can't believe it'd been since '05 that i've posted here!I had an accident and spent a lot of time recovering,then depression set in and i spent a long time feeling sorry for myself.I'm happy to say that crap is behind me and i'm doing great.My Camaro played a large role in bringing me back to reality.It had been sitting untouched for nearly 4 years in the garage,and after looking it over in it's sad state reminded me how pitiful i had become.I set out in spring of this year to make her right again.It really wasn't anything major,but even small things can be a challenge for me after my accident.I got her done just in time to put her back into storage for winter,but the therapy it provided me has been invaluable.I did end up getting a set of Ronal R15's for it as well...money well spent in my opinion.

Thank you all,i appreciate the welcome.I'm not looking for sympathy,in fact i wasn't going to mention my issues,but i did just to show what a car can do for someones psyche.Back when i first found this site,i liked it here because it seemed a little more mature than some other sites...i use that term loosely...lol!Seemed to be lots of knowledge from the members here so i stuck around.I don't post much on forums because i don't just spout crap to get my post count up,i couldn't give a shit about that.I post if i can actually contribute something useful.It don't happen often but maybe now that my heads outta my ass there may be hope.Lots of nice rides around here,i'm looking forward to seeing more of the members rides and talking to you all.

Thanks for the welcome and i appreciate the nice comments about my Camaro.I guess i could share some info about my car,so if you give a shit here it is...lol.
1991 Z28,tuned port 5.7,Borla catback.It's been lowered with Eibach springs front and rear and i just installed a wonderbar and an adjustable panhard bar.It's pretty much stock except for minor bolt on mods such as,1LE driveshaft,fuel tank and fuel pump.Most of this crap isn't really worth mentioning,it's nothing special but it's still fast enough to get me in trouble.I seem to accel at the trouble thing.Cops are attracted to this thing like a magnet,must be the rear spoiler.I got pulled over for window tint....uhh the windows aren't tinted,unless you count what is on there from the factory.Pulled over for loud exhaust....umm it's got a full exhaust and it's pretty damn quiet,i have the restrictor plate in the Borla and it's not even the largest one!Got pulled over for bald tires....umm they are D.O.T. approved drag radials dummy.I haven't been pulled over for speeding yet,which is a miracle.Guess cops around here are bored to death on the weekends?I got a fix it ticket for the exhaust and the same cop approved it a week later and i didn't do shit to it...go figure.
