Well the kid with the red evo 9 said it was an rs , it had black down handles and he tinted the head lights too. and def didn't have the bbs wheels on it. He was parked next to a silver wagon and blue vw golf. I was down there with my girl friend in my silver evo 8

My evo is my daily driver and will always will be. i don't got no high dollar job nor do i got mommy and daddy helping me out or do i live at home. I got my own place , my evo car paymant , my girl friends civic si payment , insurance , rent , food , gas , cable bill , gas bill , water bill , phone bill , credit card bills. I can barely afford to do things to my car or my g/fs , hell i had to borrow 1600 bucks for snow tires for my car and my girl friends car. cause summer tires just don't work so hot in the snow and since a 235-45-17 on the evo is an odd ball size i had to go with high price name brand tires and well the new si is sporting 215-45-17 which is odd to once again high price name brand snow tires. So my car will always be out in the winter ripping it around. I just take it throw the touchless car wash and hose off the salt and sand .

Ok nevermind then it wasn't me. But I was driving around there that day though. Wasn't really parked or hanging out just had to do some shopping.

Where do you usually hangout down there? Maybe I'll drop by sometime.

New Lot in Stratford, CT

Smooth and 13 acres!!? Could this be an alternative to Devens? I probably went twice to Devens but stopped because its a haul of a drive and have remained local
holy **** dude this just got me all excited lol. I live in Stratford and never heard of this.... yea the parking lots are big there its right across from the airport. Its closed down but i always see motorcycle lessons going on down there. Im definitley goin now

the red RS that you saw, i've ran and talked to him. last time i saw him, he was coming from rt9 northbound. he got TBE and that's it. he told me so i know. also for all who reply to my thread regarding EVo is not their DD, well if you have another ride to use during the winter, good for you. however if i was to drive a EvO i would ride that suka everywhere regardless of the weather. i used to have a yellow Oz for a while but i upgrade to something else. Notice my sig, it said "4 rings wit ****" ... if you look for a car with 4rings then you know what i have as a DD. anyway don't want to sound like *** nor have any intention of trying to be one, i always like the Evo and my best friend has the MR red (Kryptic) we always ride together and have fun. if anyone here has the time to organize a drive/meet and greet then it'll be awesome.
