    Give you a little background… during my last years church picnic (Holy Family Catholic Church), I had brought my Camaro and it instantly became a hit with the guys and kids in my church. So I decided that I would make a suggestion that we have our own car show. Long story short, I volunteered myself so here I sit in charge of the show with roughly 15 cars total. I have spots for 25 cars. The fee is $10 to enter your car; I have acquired numerous donations to include Trophies for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places. We have sponsorship from O’Reilly Auto Parts who is providing a gift bag to all entries. I will also have some other various donations from other groups, etc. Please let me know if you might be interested (Mion2001@sbcglobal.net), they will have food and beer for sale and have entertainment, Bands DJ’s etc. There will be lots to do for all ages especially for kids. Cars should arrive between 3:30-4:00 PM for staging, show starts at 4:30 PM. Judging will be conducted at 7:30 PM and prizes awarded at 8:00 PM. Cars should enter Holy Family parking lot via Rte 59 and will be parked in the overflow lot across from the main parking lot. And most important, we will not be recruiting you to join our church, just a bunch of guys and gals with their cars enjoying a good time.

    Thanks Joe (TRSFMR)

              We're not sure. We both work until 4 and we got the car back, they said that nothing is wrong but they flushed the system, now the clutch is so soft it goes straight to the floor. It will probably be going back tomorrow.

                      Ours has a little more horsepower because of being a manual Dave says. I love the stick shift but WAY to many headaches, i wanted an automatic.

                        Manual has more horsepower because you lose some with an automatic.

                            Incorrect sir

                            Automatic has less HP due to lower compression and a less agressive cam profile.
