Since I felt I needed to create a damn user name to defend myself finally and set the record straight.

**** happens to alot of people. In the world today a lot of people lost their asses, cars, toys, etc.

No one is perfect, least of all some of the people talking crap about Mike and I on the forum. We all make mistakes and pay dearly for them, in the same breath what comes around, goes around three fold.

Mike and I are good hearted people and that is why we ended up on top once again. As some of my true friends say that what we have endured lately and we are still very happily married we are meant to be together always.

As to your comment Doje (David), I never had to look at Mike twice, he emailed me and you know the story, you were at our wedding in Lake Tahoe so you can stop the bs, you never even knew Mike.

For you Teddy, you felt you were wronged and we both got wronged by the same person, too many people playing high school games. I always appreciated you for setting me up with on hec of a stereo installer Chris.

For you Brian, I don't need to say a thing. Everyone else has said it for you behind and in front of your back.

For you ZR1Speed, you may think you know me but you don't know me at all because you wouldn't have had to ask whether I supported my devoted husband in these times, you would have already known where I work and what I do.

I wish none of you ill. Mike and I just know now that the only good thing about owning our cars was that we met each other and are very happy. We also know that over our dead bodies would we ever own another Corvette and associate ourselves with people that smile in your face while they are back stabbing you at 2am on the forum.

For the altruist people, we love you.....For the back stabbing, rude without tact, I hope you find what you are looking for.

Mike and I sleep well and can look ourselves in the face each morning without guilt or sadness for something we did to someone else.:blueangel: ]]> Northern California ladydarkhorse http://forums.corvetteforum.com/northern-california/2472602-zr1speed.html http://forums.corvetteforum.com/northern-california/2472600-video-of-my-760-rwhp-procharged-gto-new-post.html Sat, 21 Nov 2009 05:26:38 GMT I've been tinkering with this car for about 4 years and recently swapped my maggie for a procharger. Also installed a fuel system to handle E85 and just put in a vacuum pump to control my oil blowby issue. This is the fastest car I have ever been in. Planning on going to Sac raceway next Saturday if anyone else wants to head up there. Thanks to Nick for the tune, I think his first with E85. Check it out (all driving was done on private roads during a recent trip to Mexico):

We had a local Machine shop cut down the shaft of an 09 Z06 shifter and thread it to accept all C5 shift knobs, original or aftermarket. We ship this complete with a nickle plated aluminum shift knob. This is complete with the shifter box, not just a new handle assembly. The complete new GM shifter is included as shown.

The retail is $249 shipped.
Everyone who has these in the NorCal area loves them and many of the guys got rid of their B&M or MGW shifters for these. This is the smoothest shifter ever!
Check them out here!

If your tire is currently mounted and you still need it, I will have it re-mounted and re-balanced by a reputable shop when I am done. I will not be driving on it - I just want to mount it on the car and turn the wheels lock-2-lock and see how the fitment is.

If they are junk tires, I will have them dismounted for you and return your wheels to you as well as pay for the tire disposal when I am done.

PM me if you have something for me. :thumbs:
