I was looking through some old Tuner magazines I use to collect back in the day and I ran into an article that had a 1994 Yellow Celica GT. The cool thing about the car was that it had a turbo and was running mid 12’s. The thing that surprised me the most was that the owner was Patrick Chinshue which I’m pretty sure that name is well known in the Alltrac community. It’s pretty cool to see back then he had love for the Celicas when during that era the Integras and Civics were dominating the scene. Much respect “OG”!

Yup, that's Pat's yellow Celica GT. Really nice car back in the day. Ran 12s with the 5S turbo set up. I have pics of that car when we were at the track. I'll try to scan some when time permits. Yes, scan... 8) They were taken with a 35mm camera. Back in 97-98, (before digital cameras and high tech cell phones). I still have a few of these issues. Good memories.
