That is so funny you all know lil sparkplug. The owner of that car used to own a stratus and then went to the miata side before purchasing the SRT4. She used to be on the 2gstratus forums way back in the day.

I am still a member on the stratus forums although I do not go on them much anymore.

I would be down for a meet in R.I. sometime.

I am here in RI. New guy with an Evo X WW. I usually do the trackday/auto-x thing but may be interested in a meet once the weather warms up.

Anyone know of a good shop in RI to get work done? I would like to find a good place to get things done that I don't feel like doing myself (i.e. oil changes in sub-30 degree temps). I am thinking of going down to Swift in CT as that is the only place I have previous experience with as a former Audi/VW guy.

Hey Kraeburn... I know of a guy named Matt who owns a small shop in West Kingstown, RI called Wicked Innovation. He primarily works on Suburu and Hondas but he has experience with tuning Evo's and working on them. Evo 8's are his favorite but I'd suggest talking to him about your ideas for your X. You can shoot him an email to matt@wickedinnovation.com. Mention Gary with the Evo 8 recommended him to you.

I am a NEDSM member, I live in Warwick. I have a 92 Talon and 03 BBY 8. Garaged in the winter but I should have it out sometime in the next two weeks. Always down for a meet.

I was on Baystate a while back but the forum kept going down or whatever and I lost interest in BayState.

Wasn't sure if I've seen you at any of their meets. I actually work right in Warwick, @ Inskip. I saw a BBY a few weeks ago w/an AMS front mount, but I'm guessing it wasn't you since you said yours wasn't out yet.

Hey Guys, just to let you all know there was supposed to be a Hard Parking meet tomorrow (Friday) but due to the weather, it has been postponed till next Friday. It's at the Park n Ride off 146 @ I-90. Wish I could go, I went to the last one but I'm going to see Russel Peters. That man is awesome!
