I entered the Typhoon in my High School auto show and won a 1st place trophy in best in my class which was Truck/SUV. Their were over 160 vehicles which was the biggest to date. One of teachers even brought his ZO6 and 700hp shelby cobra. A lot of people were surprised to see a Typhoon because some never even seen one in person.

Which High School? Main South or is that Maine West or East?

If it is Maine South I use to do all my testing a block down on Dee road.

I can see why you won your class, the truck looks great.
Any major mods done to the motor/trans?
Which rear tail lights are those? or are they painted stock ones?

Congrats,
Nick

That is a smack in the face. Someone would of heard a logical storm of words on why its bull to let a PT cruiser in and not a Syclone. What a joke...:rant:

No, this truck has been our family daily driver for 15 years through snow and everything before my dad gave me the truck. I spent the past year detailing the under carriage, and engine and it will not see another winter. It's just the yearly clay bar and wax that makes it pop. Their are a couple of spots here and there I need to take care of as soon as money allows.

Thank you for all the comments, I really appreciate it.:D

Nice job! Very clean truck.

I've always had the Ty do well in car shows, especially due to the class. My T/A has a tough time because its usually up against a bunch of Corvettes and to most people a Vette beats everything.
