probably not me, I don't usually Venture that far south.. lol. I have seen a red 05 SS, he's got tinted windows and I don't. I'll see him on the Marion bypass every now and then.

I did see a yellow SS a few weeks back at the Marion bypass and 151.


I know theres more too, I've seen at least 3 other SS's in the area

lol.. what the hell!!.... not everything..... Just tuning and drag racing, though I don't think I'll venture to Newton any time soon. I think the car needs a rest from all the traveling it did this past weekend.

08 SS/TC BSR Tuned here... in CR. Silver with High Rise. I don't know if I should be giving that information. Usually I drive pretty relaxed. Sometimes I'm a dick though. LOL

I don't see many SS's of ANY year around here. I see LT's quite a bit, occasionally a sport. Saw a yellow one with black stripes today getting off the Boyson rd. exit from 380 South.
There's some chick... she's an RN in Iowa City. She has a black 09 SS/TC. Haven't seen her though... she's on this board.

I haven't seen a silver hi rise yet, but I usually stay up North of CR in the Marion area. I've noticed most people around here drive fairly relaxed. I was warned about the Marion cops when I arrived. Plus there's not too many areas around to drive like a dick... lol

Yeah I go to Marion sometimes on the weekends. Watch out for Hiawatha cops too. Personally I think they are worse, I just don't see them as often... not sure where they hang out. lol

What part of Texas did you live? I used to visit the ex-wife's family a lot in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area.

I lived in the suburbs of DFW, little town called McKinney. Hmmm come to think about it I think McKinney is about the same size as Cedar Rapids.....

how funny, my Aunt lives in Lancaster, I always had a blast driving down Central Expressway, US75, when we went to visit, plenty of opportunities to be a dick down that road, especially on the weekends...lol

So yeah back on topic, CR balts, who's gonna head out to McGrath on Thursday? I wonder if they have a Camaro yet.....
