Hey- everyone, I'm Chris. Probably not the best way to introduce myself- but thought I might find some sympathy here at least. 2 Saturday's ago, a 17yr old kid in an '04 Explorer decided to pull out in front of me. I T-boned him at about 25-30 on the passenger side, he spun around and hit another car on the other side of the road. His left front tire was blown completely off the wheel. My Grand Prix took it pretty well and still ran(!), though totaled. The idiot tow-truck driver even tried to drive it up the flat-bed at a 40 degree incline. Front end damage and both air bags deployed of course. No one was really hurt, I just have a little whiplash. I'm so pissed though- I loved that car. But I guess almost 213K is pretty good. Luckily I didn't take my '07 to get pizza...

thanks everyone

The new Domino's pizza they are advertising isn't much different than what I used to get in college. Or maybe it was the crappy beer back then.

Here is the '07 GT. I really wanted the S/C this time, and this was the last year it was an option. I'm definitely thinking about getting SSC springs and the adjustable KYBs.

Hey Andy! We gotta get this guy to go to the Wampsville meet! Shouldn't be too bad of a drive from Albany to there. No more than for me.
