Erwin or Benson NC is the closest e85 pump. Some places around here have E85 out of barrels and that. There are plenty of evos around Fayetteville, but we don't meet up as much anymore.

Doing a quick search the closest e85 station would be BP in Raleigh, is that accurate?
Fayetteville section here is non existent. We live next to the E85 station in benson and store it here most of the time arund 40-50gallons for customers who we have on it.

Some of the regular customers here and some guys from the shop are going up I believe. We may be delivering 1 or 2 built cars up there that weekend but not sure yet.

the day before the subie/evo....the last one at Leith wasn't that good though. I felt it was just a lot of people being douchebags, but thats me personally. doesn't hurt to go down there anyways. a reason to get PF Changs

I was planning to go but, as fate would have it, the EV (Electric Vehicle) Challenge is also this weekend. My wife is involved with the groups that sponsor that event, and I go with her each year.

Figures...

Whoever goes to the Leith event, please post pics!!!

LOL! Nah, then Rodney would just use it to show people what a crappy, normal, EB IX with too many miles on it looks like...

Did you end up going? Looked like a nice turnout...

Yea, I went. It was a decent turnout, although I'm really not sure how many evo's are even still around here. I really liked that first silver one pictured. It had a very nice/clean setup. Also got to hang out with Jim and Rodney for a while so that was nice.

Nice pictures. I thought it was great turn out, nice seeing everyone.

By the way, where did you get the evolution heat shield?
