About formulas7002’s Garage
About me and my passion for cars
I love restoring and racing Classic and New(er) Formula Firebirds. I adore all Pontiacs, all Classic cars and all Musclecars!
My goal was to have the 1st year 1970, and last year 2002 of the Formula Firebird - which I have! Formulas are always under estimated, but carry the full performance of the TransAm without the extra weight of ground effects & spoilers.
I am Sugar and Spice and everything nice, I am just a little spicier than most! My dad had always wanted a son, but I am what he had, so I was his helper. I have worked on cars all my life, and discovered how wonderful Pontiacs were when a former boyfriend had a 65 GTO, and I have been hooked ever since! Pontiacs are my passion! Nothing sounds better to me than a big block Pontiac motor screaming with a wide open throttle.
Two things I find really exciting are quarter mile racing (with both cars), and racing the 4th generation on a SSCA track!
