Talking **Updated w/Video** Good 'Ole Boys + 650whp =????

** Hey guys, thought I would bring this one back, since someone sent me a camera phone video of the burnout... quality is pretty crappy, but still looks pretty cool! Added the link at the bottom of the pictures... **

Thought I would just share some pictures from this Good 'Ole Boy party I went to this past weekend with the Z up in Fort Wayne, IN.

This is a party that has been going on for the past 27 years and was started by a group of high school buddies back in 1980! Now it has grown to about 300 cars and 500-600 people every year. They have a burn out competition, live bands, and a contest to see how long a junker will last with a brick on the accelerator pedal. I know, I know... Kinda hick stuff, but a lot of fun! It is completely put on my these 5-6 guys and no sponsors... pretty impresive if you ask me.

Most of the cars there were big block Chevys, tubbed out on drag slicks... A few mustangs and Mopar stuff too. I was one of the only imports there and had to repersent in the smoke show... Plus I had drank enough by that point my buddy convinced me that it was a good idea to let him do the burn out, lol First and probably last time my car will ever do that!




















And here is the video...

Sounded like a 2 step @ first, and surprisingly your dumps/wastegate didnt open? All I hear is the APS exhaust, my dumps open when Im burning out, doing donuts...
