    If for any reason you still have more bugs to work out on the Vette after the dyno, since it sounds like you are FINALLY committing to the Firebird, does this mean the Vette will stay on hold with the bugs, and you'll get the Trans Am up and rumbling???

    BTW, you're camera takes the same quality mine does. If the vid turned out that way and was taken from your video camera, I would go back to its original recording source (CD or video tape), and then look for a better place to host the vid. A lot of places like photobucket buffers vids WAY down and kills the quality.

    streetfire is pretty good for example.

    No, if there's bugs with the vette they will be worked first. I'm talking bugs preventing the car from being done. Things like new inlet pipe, BOV's, ect, can wait. But if something is fubar then it's getting fixed.

    The vid for the camera direct recording to the memory stick is crap. A minute isn't even six megs if that tells you anything. I know what I'm doing with it, I just chose to play with the crap settings because it's something new and I wanted to see how it does.

    The V ain't bad though. I'd actually consider one if I have to toss the Vette for some reason, but it's just WAY too small inside for me.

    Nice! Reminds me of last weekend when a guy I know pulled up in his 1100rwhp(through an auto) 03 cobra and nobody thought much of it, sounds sooooo tame. I love sleepers!

    I understand the idea behind them. To me, unless you're in it for the money, and to be sneaky, being a sleeper is pointless.

    Who wants a car that doesn't sound, look, or cry out to the world "I am the fastes Mo Fo on the street". Now thats what I always wanted

    But to each his own...

    And Sean, you definatly have achieved sleeper with your Vette.

    A Vette in the same color and the same wheels passes me each morning in the opposite direction on the highway. I can only imagine how much better it would look blowing off the tires at 90mph!
