So to be honest - no definitive plans yet, but I am trying.
Supersport: All my You-Tube videos were made in Salt Lake - I don't plan on any new ones, unless somehow or another I can get my '07 to the strip and have it recorded there, other than that, no I don't plan on any more U-Tube videos. Thanks for asking. Sam
Hopefully I will see you there. You have one car I would really like to see in person.

Too bad the car in the pictures is not a 2006, and the LS1 engine is in a completely different car...Notice the Master Cylinder....I call B.S.
Looks to be an f-body bay.. lame..

Oh well, can't wait to see Sam's progress!

Hey Mitch: I have to tell you that you might have been the inspiration for my new build. I remember a picture of a 6th Gen Monte - a Red one like yours that was photo-shop'd with some rear large rear tires. Made it look like a RWD. I really liked the look - kinda helped me decide that was what I wanted.
Like Zippy02 was the inspiration for my first build and you or at least I think it was you are the inspiration for my RWD build. SAM

Yes that's the car. Obviously my memory was wrong in recalling the details and I apologize BUT that is the car I was talking about and it's pretty awesome IMO

I Personally believe that the Monte is in fact Rwd though. This guy has a few vehicles for sale that are completely custom. If you click the shinearide link he has a custom duramax swapped truck. Easiest way to figure it out is go look at the car. It's in mt. Sterling Ohio lol

If you take a look at the vehicles and boats This guy has in his garage, I have no problem believing he handed someone a ton of cash and said make this thing rwd lol

Im sure you guys have seen this video before but if not it just proves it can and has been done

I think if I had a RWD monte that was as nice as that white one is - I wouldn't abuse it by doing donuts and showing off to a crowd of people who probably don't appreciate what the car is, such as he did.

I agree that the middle of an intersection is not the place to be doing what he is doing but if I had that car it would be hard to resist doing it in a parking lot or something
