New guy from LS1TECH
I've been a lurker for a while, but after meeting hanging out with my web biz partner Tony all weekend at the Year One, I have to admit I'm thinking of building a Pro Touring car. FWIW the Merc is currently undergoing a repaint and will be gloss black with factory bumpers.
Here are my current cars:
1951 Mercury lead sled
2000 Camaro Z/28
2006 TBSS

John,
Good to see you over here. You are one of a few LS1Tech.com personalities I can stomach.
What is the towing capacity of the TBSS?1987 Monte Carlo Super Slow - Super Worn Out 355, Carb, Giggle Juice, 3" Duals, 200-4R & 4.56s
1987 Turtle Buick - T63e, 83s, FMIC, MPE DP, PowerLogger, MAFT Pro, 4" Single, ProPain & 3.08s
2002 Crapmaro B4C - LS1, A4, SLP Lid, DiabloSport, Cutout & 3.23s
2007 TrailBlazer Super Slug - LS2, A4, AWD, Tune, CAI, Exhaust & 4.11s
If you didn't build it, it's not yours.

Hehe thanks Mike.
TBSS is 2WD and can tow 6800 lbs. I'm gonna try to run 13.9 all stock one more time with some weight reduction.1951 Mercury lead sled

Thanks! I am in the market for something powerful & comfy with towing capacity for the cars. Compromising into family mode? I don't think so!
