Yup. The old Bellport Outlets... It'll look even better when they start painting graffiti on the walls... I was pressed for time so I am going to go back around sunset one day... if you want to go together I'd be down to meet up... There's a few other spots my buddy knows of, some out east, one by little Vincents, and an old car dealership thats falling apart and you can get inside... I love old rustic looking backgrounds!!!

Me too.... that was the money shot of the day... it may of looked a little better if the car was just slightly angled a bit more to see some of the side , but than again that may be what makes this pic look so good... def my favorite of the bunch.. I need to learn to start thinking out of the box and take more like this one, pics that incorporate more than just the car

I would but I am actually taking tranceformers advice and going to the track! haha, he got me itching... I just got home from performance he threw my tune back on along with some tweaks... added launch control (pm me if you want to know what its about, not true launch control, but simple to use and will be effective), linear throttle that i didn't have, and a few tweaks to richen up my motor because this new one was running a bit leaner... I now have an every day map, a track map, a map for launch control, a valet map, and a map that the car wont even start... which is a great idea when parking in suspect areas~!!

I can not stress enough how good of people they are in Performance Motorsports in Smithtown ..... Anyone on Long Island or even close to Smithtown should really go there. I can honestly say they are the best shop I have been to in my life and none are even close.

I Also made an appointment to do a before/after dyno and install of my PE racing Long Tube Headers and a Re-Tune as needed for next Wednesday. I'm not expecting to go that great tomorrow , maybe match my 12.9 hopefully beat it but on stock rubber and my heavy-ish rims it will be tough... Car does feel outstanding right now though after the tune. It may be a little quicker than ever, but tomorrow is just for practice and to try out launch control.. I am going to be ordering Radials in the next few days and am going to attempt to get a mid 12 second pass before this season is over. IMO very do-able with all my mods.

But one week I will def get down there, I am now free every Wednesday so I'll become a regular sooner or later..
