Hey, can anyone recommend a high quality stereo installer in Northeast Ohio? And also a good mechanic/body shop. One that knows a little bit about Lancers would be a plus.

Thanks in advance.

Hey Guys,

Could someone please explain how the track thing works? I hear some of you go to Mid-Ohio to put some laps on once in a while. What needs to be done in order for me to participate or run some laps. Might sound silly, but I've never been to a track. Could you also tell me how much what costs and what needs to be done to the car in order to race the track for fun (Non pro style)

Thanks

Just got back from a weekend of lapping.

Look at the HPDE section... you can sign up there in one of four levels; it's mainly non-competitve open lapping.

DSM did good, though it sprung an oil leak towards the end of Sunday and I don't know where it's coming from

Think I blew the headgasket

Nope. Gotta work... don't work = don't get paid. Hate how that works

Kick some Audi @$$

I have a picture of me passing an Audi at Mid-Ohio in April, so I sent it to someone I know who like Audis with the caption: "Audi-my-way!" He wasn't laughing... I was

They had three events at Mid-Ohio this summer, I believe. There are a lot of opportunities if you don't mind driving. They'll be at Putnam Park next weekend.
