Ty in Springfield, MO????

I was driving home from Branson, MO to Kansas City and while cutting through Springfield, MO on hwy 13 I could have swore I saw a Black Ty making a left turn in front of me from southbound 13 onto Kearney st or ave. It was 10:10pm on May 19th. I was on the phone and not really expecting to see a ty so I may have imagined it as I had been working there all week and was very tired on my drive home. I was quite a ways back at the intersection and could just see the body coming at me from off in the distance. I remember thinking that it was really sharp blazer or jimmy and I wished my Ty was out cruising around on a saturday night at $3.50 a gallon instead of driving this little Honda civic. Then it turned and OMG I could see the ground effects and what appeared to be the Typhoon sticker on the passenger door. The ground effects were hard to see if they were Sy/Ty or just some aftermarket jobbies because it was night and it was a black on black truck. I couldn't see a Ty sticker on the tailgate as it sped off but it sure looked like one. Silly me I was caught off guard and don't even remember what the wheels looked like. I was hoping that if it was a Ty somebody could confirm if they were driving it in Springfield, MO at 10:10pm on 5/19 down hwy 13?????? Either way it got me thinking about mine on the rest of the drive home.

Thats probably Chris(Pinknuts). He's a new member on here with a blk. Ty...I think he's selling it. Runs great but needs a paint restore.He's not a DIY'er with that arena.
There's also another TY thats new to Springfield....supposidly already in the low 11's ? But I've not yet met him. I'll point to the forums once I have.
Since Proto-X sold his Sy....I'm the only one in town again ! :(

Lived here for most of my lofe except military time. I wanted a Sy for several years and realized the best way for me was to buy one with a bad engine and repair it. I bought #252 in AR from the second owner(bad piston and some engine parts sold) and then I bought a totaled Sy in CA with a good engine and drive line to complete the first. I removed the bad engine this past week-end and will remove the other and install it in 252 this week-end. I am comfortable with the swap until it comes time for all the vaccum line to be reinstalled.
