  • Finally joined after meeting some of the group last summer...

    Well, it took me awhile to actually get around to registering here, but I figured better late than never. My name is Patrick and I live in Big Rapids with my girlfriend Ashley. We met some of the Mi F-body group last summer while cruising around Grand Rapids. You had a meeting across the street from Berger and there were a lot of nice rides there. Sorry I can't recall names, but I am sure I will learn them again. My ride is a 1998 Pontiac Firebird Formula LS1/M6 . It's been a work in progress and I have been modifying it a bit this winter to get a little more power out of it and put that power down to the ground. Already have installed a Chris Alston adjustable torque arm and some HD Bilsteins, as well as a spring isolator delete in the rear. Also did white faced gauges and a Harlan shift light to help with trips down the track so I'm not staring at the gauges the whole time. Coming soon will be a TR224/224 cam, FAST 78MM intake and ported TB, a set of LTs/ORY, along with the prerequisite AIR/EGR delete. Later this summer when finances allow, I'm getting a custom Comp grind cam and a pair of PRC stage 2.5 5.3 heads. The GF drives a Mustang GT, but we respect any american muscle so don't rag on her too hard if you see her Here's a few pics of our rides:

              Thanks for the welcome! I see a few people on here are also members on LS1Tech (where I spend most of my time, lol). I also spend a lot of time on michiganspeed which has been quite a fun way to meet people from around the state. Don't mind the stock look of the Mustang either, we're working on that presently. The GF does all of the wrenching on that car too! Hopefully we can attend some get togethers this spring!

                          Hey Patrick, welcome to the site! We have a meet up coming June 16th at Kensington Metro Park outside of Detroit's west side. I'm sure there will be a big group of cruisers coming in from the West side of the state, too.
