i wouldnt necessarily say that its a salvage car. i just picked my black and red one up for 13,500. given, it wasnt in the best condition, but it will be when im done with it! :-D i would just go over there and talk to them, look at it, drive it, and see what you think. maybe find one of the knowledgable evo guys to take a look at it....

the meet should definitely get planned. who's headin it up?! i've only been to one, and that was the toys for tots at swift. so im pretty pumped about doin this! lets get a date people!!!

I can't do Feb 13th or 15th, and I definitely can't do any Tuesdays. I'm game for all other days. I vote for the early weekend of February 5th, 6th, and the 7th

Personally a Sunday would work well...

I imagine a central location in CT would be nice...dare I say the Berlin Turnpike...

I have a spot in town that used to hold weekly meets right down the road from good old Bishops Motorsports (rip)...but being in NW part of CT...it could be a haul for some...(Canton)

I was thinking sometime in the Spring. Like a Sunday in April. I know kinda far off. But I want to bring both my Supra and Evo and I don't drive my Supra in winter months. Also it'll probably be in Seymour. I work at a shopping center and it's empty on Sundays.

Its a shame that Bishop went out of business. Although, I have little respect for Kyle. I emailed him several times once he left about a coilover issue I was having....with zero response. He assured me he would still do corner balancing and keep in touch with various suspension distributors-plus keep his web site going.
I imagine none of that happened.

Well I was thinking that if anyone is interested for a run to Limerock Park

May 28-31, 2010

EVENT SCHEDULE COMING SOON!

For the first time ever, Grand-Am’s exciting Rolex Daytona Prototypes come to Lime Rock! The traditional Memorial Day season-opener will showcase the DPs and GTs in a combined-class race on Monday. On Saturday, the BMWs, Fords, Chevys, Hondas and Porsches in the Continental Tire Challenge will trade paint, along with the fantastically competitive Ford Racing Mustang Challenge series, the equally close Cooper Tires Presents the Atlantic Championship Powered by Mazda and the BFG/Skip Barber National Presented by Mazda.

Tickets range from $10-100.

or if not this we could get a crowd to go to ALMS there in July.

I know there will be some spring runs that I am down for in April as well.
