Well he fled the scene and no one got a plate number or anything. Evo wasn't drivable, the front suspension is pretty messed up, and with the steering wheel centered the right front wheel is pointing at about the 1:00 direction. Anyway, if any of you are native to the Monroeville/Murrysville area please keep an eye out for a white grand-am with a rally red racing stripe down the driver side of his car. Thanks guys!
Ugh what a nightmare. I'm not over that way much anymore but when I am ill keep my eyes open. Hopefully he can be tracked down and beaten severely. What year abouts was the grand am?

Thanks guys. Yeah I'm fine, just can't believe it. You just can't have anything nice, havent owned this thing a year and its wrecked already. I doubt he will be caught, I imagine that anyone that had any info or plate # would have turned it in by now. The grand am was late 90's early 2000's.

Mike'll fix it up nice. Depending on your insurance maybe you can get a FMIC rims etc etc out of the deal as aftermarket parts are often cheaper then the factory stuff.

that's pretty cool, i didn't know they did that. last time i renewed my ccw was August 2008 so with any luck they did away with that goofy terrorist check & yellow card system since then.
My wife and I went to the Washington County Courthouse to get her license last week and we walked out with her CCW permit in 10 minutes. No wait at all.

And I never let cops know I'm carrying if I get pulled over. I did that once in WV and it just made things worse.

In PA, you do NOT have to inform the police about carrying. There are other states that require you to notify, but not in PA.

Yeah PA CCW laws are shockingly pretty great. Ohio's were terrible, and you actually had to keep your weapon out in the open when it was in your vehicle. Plus you pretty much can't actually carry anywhere .

Its the one at that big church in Wexford. Just drive north down Perry Highway and you'll run right into it. Just be ready for endless looks of disdain from a myriad of muscle car owners.

Wilson circuit Time trial

Okay guys, I'm asking for you guys to help me out. I'm holding the TT on the cart track at Beaverun again on Sat July 10. We will race from 12:00 to 8:00 with tech being from 9:30-11:30. Cost $100 . This is a SCCA event and we will most likely have pizza for dinner provided. (at least for EVO owners)

I need you guys to come out and race! We had quite a few evo's out there before snd I want to see it continue. This is the best intro into time trials that you will ever have! It's pretty safe and a heck of a lot of fun. Let's quite pissing and moaning with each other and all get together and race.

If we get enough interest, I will try and organize alittle suby-evo challange.

You don't need any special safety gear just long sleeves and pants.
