Well, I thought it would be pretty cool to post the rides that is in my family.

I'll start with my brothers. It is a 1999 Pontiac Trans Am, LS1, automatic. He has ported heads, LS6 manifold, Comp cam, SLP cai, full exhaust, 3200 stall, forged rods. He hass yet to get it dyno'd, but we are expecting in the 450rwhp range.

Next is my cousin Frank. I'll start with his old car. It was a 1994 Pontiac Trans Am, LT1, 5 spseed. It was really worked. It had a 383 stroked, STS rear mount turbo, cam, 10psi, manifold, bolt ons. I can honestly say probably the fastest car I have been in. The last I know he was in the 650rwhp range. He sold the Trans Am, and crossed to the Mustang side. He now has a 2001 Bullit, procharged, bolt ons making 430rwhp. Absolute beautiful show car.

Now this is my uncle's ride, the kid befores dad. It is an 2001 (I believe) Ford Lightning. It has a Kenne bell, bolt ons, and puts down over 550rwhp. It is one sick truck.

Next is my other cousin, Gregs ride. He used to own a 1991 Ford Thunderbird that was magnacharged, intercooled, bolt ons yada yada nad put down 330rwhp through the v6. He sold it and bought a 2005 original Roush, procharged. It puts down 480rwhp through the stock short block. It is immaculate.

This should turn into a "your family's cars thread". My parents have a 1997 Mazda B4000 5spd 4x4(dad's truck) and a 2008 Mazda Tribute GS(Mom/Dad drives it). I own my Mustang GT and my explorer sport. My next older brother who is 21 owned a 1994 Probe GT for like 5 years until he bought a 2005 Acura RSX(Not even the type S :violent1:) in January. My next older brother, 23, is the one who owned my car before me. After totalling 2 Ford escorts in High school, he got a $700 80' mustang(4 cyl. Carbed), which was literally a POS. He bought my car the spring after he graduated and sold it to me 2 years later and got a Brand new 2008 Mustang GT/CS(Pic attached). My sister, 25, has a 2006 Ford Fusion SEL 3.0L and her husband has a 2007 F-150 Supercab 4x4. For your enjoyment, my Oldest brother's mustang, my next brother's RSX and my Mustang at my sister's wedding pictures (cell pic sadly), blown's got better cars in his family though :p.

The cool thing about having cars like this in the family, is rivalry. Me and my dad are going back and forth with mods for a couple months now, he's not a bad driver but since I dont need to shift I have him at points.
So Blown, who's fastest in your family?

My brother has got a 77 Nova concourse.
My good friend Andrew has got a 03 Mach.
My good friend Austin had a 89 hatch before it was totalled by a Toyota, now we have almost finished converting everything over to a 81 notch.

well without a doubt the 94 TA with the rear mount turbo was the fastest....but now I would say the fastest are either me or my brother with his LS1. We have yet to actually run them against eachother yet because he is still breaking in his new motor, but soon it will come.

thanks for the nice words guys.

to get pictures up, just open an account with someone like photobucket, save them there, and then you can put images on sites.
