Considering the EVO is my ONLY asset in this country, I'll be sure to let you guys know if it ever goes on sale. For now, the plan is to just leave it unregistered/uninsured in my dad's garage in VA.

So long guys!
Going away party should be in order!!
What country are you from?

pretty sure they are supposed to mail a notice to whatever address is listed on the registration.

they did the same thing for my nissan 300zx years back, i made a big **** about it and eventually the manager pulled out the "we mailed you a notice, didn't you get it?" response.

i got the car back for the fee of the tow and nothing more. give them ****.

India mate. I am leaving this Sunday from DC. I have a visa interview as soon as I land in India on the 16th so I can come back. However, considering how its completely the discretion of the officer to issue a visa, I could do everything right, and still not get it. That's what makes this so hard. There are so many other things that go bad like a domino affect because of this, I am just trying to not think about it. If I make it, I will probably be back in 2 weeks.

I'm going to see what the weather is like before I roll out. My car is clean and there's no way in hell I'm driving it if it's raining. So I may be there, I may not, only time will tell.

On a side note, who all is going to CBRD next weekend? I'm going, not running though. I would like to meet up with others so we can all roll together. The turnpike to 222 South seems to be the fastest way for me to get there so I would imagine for you Philly guys it would be the same. Route 30 just takes way too long... Post up if your attending.

It's starting to look like I can't make the Sonic meet, not sure about CBRD yet. Any time I've gone out there I have always taken 30 but it's hit or miss depending on traffic.
