Re: Where the GA minis

BAGS, speed is over rated, think about it would you rather get somewhere fast and speed by people like a blur, or take your time and ride by them while they drool and talk about how low you are? and on top of all that you get to drag, gods gift to mini-truckers, can I get an amen?

Re: Where the GA minis

but on the flip side: wouldn't you like to see the look on the young punks face as you stomp him in his dads mustang, mitsu, honda (which isn't hard), etc.
i would rather blow their doors off than drag by them and fock up their paint with rock chips

Bags are over-rated

Nah, speed is an addiction. You'll always want to go faster.

If that were the case, we wouldn't have dual port bags and electric valves, etc.

Now first of all, both speed and bags have their ups and downs, with that said speed can get you in a lot more trouble than bags, and on top of that no I wouldn't want to "blow someones doors off" for the simple reason that you can go out and buy something factory fast, but the last time I checked you couldn't go to a dealership and buy something bagged, people might give you credit if you have something track worthy but there not going to stand there and drool over it or trip over a curb because they can't look away, now I have my opinions and you have yours and I respect that but we just don't see eye to eye

Re: Where the GA minis

I have a red 99 jimmy. I havent driven it very much in the last 4 or 5 months cause its been in a few different stages of destruction. Getting the link installed as we speak and as soon as I get it back from there then it should be fully bagged and partially put back together in another week or so.

The show down in Warner Robins will be the first time its going to be out since bagged and a few other things I have planned for it.

that seems like the long way, it would be easier to take I-75 straight down and take the bypass around Macon.

Re: Where the GA minis

there will be a pretty good number of trucks heading down there from the ATL area. I am expecting maybe 6 or 7 trucks from vertical limit depending on if anyone from
