About “I ROC U”
I got this awesome 87 iroc-z camaro back in 93 and she was my daily driver just to work which was only about 3 miles away but in 98 there was a inside job and a whole gang stole my camaro which was in front of my work and took her to cali with thousands of dollars worth of clothing, grociers, jewelry, stereo equipment, and some apperance stuff and they put big bald tires on her and took everything in her. and about 3 months later they finally got arrested right before they sold her to a big mafia gang out in califonia.the people that stole my iroc were only in jail for maybe a week and they have stole several other vehicles before, but they were just given a slap on the wrist then got to go. but i drove her everyonce and a while then she sat in out drive way never washed or started or ever covered from oregons weather for 5yrs and well that caused her to sadily stop running but i finally got the money to get her running again and it was only suppose to be about 500 bucks but it was 1500 bucks parts and labor. but now she runs like new with only 27k miles on the clock and i am the 2nd owner and she is such a blast to drive! also i brough the paint back from the dead with plenty of washing, polish, and lots of wax!!! the body is pretty straigh exept for a couple little dings in the hood and on the side but unoticable and there is a good about of scratches but is very hard to see unless in direct light.
About “dragonbird”
This is me and my husbands pride and joy. We bought this car in Clarksville, TN in May of 2003. It only had a little over 3,000 miles on it, but it had been wrecked, but not to bad. you couldn't tell by looking at it. Anyways it now has over 49,000 miles on it and me and my husband have enjoyed every minute of it. We have been taking it to shows since 2005, and the occasional run down the Bristol, TN dragstrip. (Thunder Valley). Right now my best run is a 14.03, but I know I can get in the 13's if I can just get out of the hole quicker. We have also been working on redoing the interior, I didn't like the tan, so I wanted it redone in red and black. and now dragon bird has a whole new look, since her wreck in ohio destroyed her body, she needed a new one. enter the black 2001 WS6 trans am. my husband already has the interior and the SLP cold air induction from the '99 in it, we're now just waiting for a break in the rain to finish switching everything over. so now she is technically my 99/01 trans am

Mods for “I ROC U”
only things i have on her is new tires, a leBRA ( looks rlly nice at night ), dual chrome exhuast tips, new sheepskin seat covers, steering wheel cover, chrome licence plate frame, valve stem covers, and thats pretty much it. i just found out i have kyb gas shocks on the front. and minus spare and the jack
future mods: nice custome paintjob, getting hood dent out and the other small ones, new decals and emblems, im going have to start with small upgrades to the tpi, exhuast, supension, brakes, then go bigger into the engine and then add nitrous and maybe supercharger . and hopefully im going be able to buy a 383 with s/c and nitrous in the future.
