Hey everyone, I just recently joined shift518 and was cruising around. Just thought I would throw up a pic of my car and whatnot. I have had my car for about 6 months in the Troy area. I’ve got a 1998 Pontiac Grand Prix GT with a few minor mods. Ran it for the first time ever at Lebanon Valley Dragway on Wednesday the 13th. Best time was a 15.466 @ 88.75 MPH. Here is a pic taken a little while ago. Not bad for being my grandmother’s car before it was mine. Let me know what you think and enjoy. ![http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab189/mhoran89/1998%20Grand%20Prix%20GT/IMG_0557.jpg](http://i862.photobucket.com/albums/ab189/mhoran89/1998%20Grand%20Prix%20GT/IMG_0557.jpg) ---

Theres a few people on here with good cameras if you want a photoshoot, you’d have to talk to them though, one is CFD Productions the other is Killer Blackbird. ---

You’re smarter than the car makes you look. Save your money now, stick to school and buy something fast when you’re making the big bucks. ---

One day not too long ago I was walking out of Rite Aid on Hoosick Street and you were parked at the entrance, you got in your car and put it to the boards and proceeded to stunt around the parking lot. Not that I care much about their well being, but there were several african americans also walking through said parking lot that you could have struck. You drove recklessly to the point where I said “what a fuckin’ tool”. FYI, your car sucks and DOES NOT have balls. That’s my story, and it’s a true one. ---
