Hey guys I've been looking around for a daily beater to get the Evo off the road and I ran into this on Autotrader. Just wondering what you guys thought. I think the price is right. I just hate that it's 2hrs from my house. It would suck to get out there and find something you don't like about the car only to drive all the way back. Let me know what you think.

or

we could start out on valley creek, turn right on 322 and take that into dtown and get on 282 and take that to where ever.....doesn't it intersect with 82 at some point?

or we could do valley creek to a right on 322 to halls road to marshalton thorndale road and and either take a left and drive out west OR right and cross over 30 and follow 340 all the way to route 10. then 10N to honey brook at 322 back to dtown. (think this may be the winner).

this area is great because there are so many routes to take. we could make this a regular thing and try them all.

i rode out to meet tim yesterday at maple grove (only to stay for a retardly short amount of time). i took the bypass west to 10 north all the way to maple grove. it was awesome. even the soccer mom's do like 60 in a 25.

so who is all interested in going? tim (is in), pete?, josh?, willie?

PM me if you need more info/directions
I wasn't able to get my tires done today but whatever, I'm still in. Where is the Wegmans?

DX auto is tough to swallow. I think your on the right trail for a car but I would look for a 5-spd.

Pete, the pros were in the 50s. My best was a 63. The new sway bar rocks...car just turns when I tell it. I overdrove in the second heat though, so i think there were tons of room to improve. NExt time, I'm gonna have an instructor run to see what my car is capable of!

I don't know what my problem was this morning. I started the first heat off with a dirty 56.x and just couldn't improve on it. all my runs were either dirty, slow or both

yeah I guess so. I liked the idea of having an auto for daily driving but it's smarter from a maintenance stand point to get a 5speed.
