Yeah I don't blame ya. It would totally be awesome if we could get our montes side-by-side sometime though && btw I figured out not that long ago that my monte originally was from New York right before we owned it, we are her 2nd owners

If we get 3 or 4 cars then I could see if any of my Pontiac friends want to come out also and make a day of it. It is not like my Monte has never been next to a Pontiac at the track.
Ahh cool cool. The only problem is that it's kinda hard for me to get outta the house bcuz my parents are pretty protective of me still =/ but I'm thinking about transferring to a college in KC area in the spring so it's not totally outta the question if we do it here sometime, i'm gonna see if anyone else from the other forums wanna come

That would be awesome to get our montes together . Hmm, KC might be less of a trip for me.. Maybe sometime in the future. I know my parents won't let me leave the state anytime soon. lol

No I didn't I wanted to take those, the spare tire, & the back seat out of it but I had no place to put them & Ryan nor Kris would watch them for me to make sure no East Saint Louis bum stole them. I prob won't race her again til the meets I set up in like September unless it cools down enough for one of the races before that

I'm just curious about this, so I'm not being rude or anything, but did you swap the 3400 in the Malibu? The reason I ask is because the 97-04 Malibus never came with a 3400, but the 97-03's did come with 3100's (the 04 came with a 4 cyl for the Classic model). But I would believe that the Malibu ran that time because they're actually fairly lightweight cars.

Back on topic, take the Monte back and run some 14's
