Awesome....I have 04' Black. Tinted windows, nothin done yet...hope to have wheels and other mods by spring.
Hope to see you around.
Coolness.
Now lets get started on those mods!
Im a Deputy with Marion County....so if you get pulled over for doing absolutely nothing....it might be me. :D
Mine wont get out much in the winter unless its a dry sunny day.
It will most likely be in the garage getting a heart transplant :eek: (cam) :cheers

Wow...not a lot going on here.
I was hoping to see more Indy goats chiming in.
Well, just a side note: Ive ordered the TR220 cam.
Initially I was going to do the install myself.....but, I found a shop on the west side of Indy who will do it cheap and have access to a dyno.
Some thing are better left to the pro's. :cheers

Hey 66
Whats the word on your cams.....Did you get them done yet. Can't wait to get some things for the spring, wheels, springs, possible short shifter.:party:
Yeah, posted in the tech section under 'teenie bopper cam' :lol:
Ended up taking it to Hoosier Performance Specialists at 10th/Country Club Rd on the west side. Dyno tune comes this week.
Got a 220/220 .552/.552 114lsa cam, Comp Cams 918 springs and hardened pushrods from Thunder Racing out of Louisiana.
This thing scoots pretty good now.

I bought my 05 goat 1/2/06. Phantom Black, black interior, chrome wheel option. (see: New to GTO forum, 56k Beware for pics and what not)

Anyway, I live near Garfield Park, South side Indy and cruise US 31 from Downtown to Suds in Greenwood. Hope to see you guys out there.
Only mod I have on the car is a cold air intake from LPE, and tinted windows.

Awesome to see ya on here. I say a black GTO behind me today on emerson ave. No tint though.
Suds, I have been there, will go back in summer time when i have my wheels.
We all have to get together and discuss GTO stuff, spring/ summer cookout or something.

Nice.
How much did all that run ya?
Thunder Racing had a holiday special. Cam, hardened pushrods and Comp 918 springs $539.00.
The install, tune and dyno was in the $700.00 area.
The dybo #'s didnt quite jive, so we're taking it to a different dyno later this month.
I only put down 330 rwhp and 326 rwtq. I was expecting around 360-370 rwhp and 350-365 rwtq.
Either way, the car is a beast...........yet subtle.

Tonight was my first weekend with the car, that I got to test her out. (don't listen too closely Route66, I'll deny, deny, deny..lol). I got to race an 06 Mustang GT, 95 SVT Mustang, and a 2000 Z28. When I would launch with them, I would pull away, but when I was slow off the line I stayed back until I reached 3rd, but then they would slow down. They wouldn't finish!

I also saw two GTOs tonight! An 04, P. Black, that had the 05 spoiler (any of you?) I didn't get a chance to talk to him. I came across another 05, torrid red, w/ pinstriping. I got a chance to talk to him, a good guy. The 05 was an automatic. I was absolutely stunned at how well the auto pulled away from me. It didn't help that I kept missing third gear, but either way he pulled away from my m6.

I had alot of fun tonight. I hadn't got out and raced in probably 5 years. I can not wait for Tuesday night amatures at IRP. But, man do I ever need to practice my shifting under load! LOL


The word is out Ladies and Gentlemen. No one would approach us (I cruised w/ the red05 for about an hour). Everyone kept a half car lenght or better behind the goats.

Respect the Goats!
