Charleston, SC here I come

Moving to Charleston, SC in december this year. I have a few questions that i'm sure you guys can help me in.

1. Is there any tracks to run at?

2. Tuning shops? I know that there is one in Florence, any others?

3. Any evos in the area? I know Greymann is in the area, I'll be looking you up. Anyone else?

Do the evos have any work done on them? If they have who did the work, any good local shops or am I looking at driving up to florence. i'm looking forward to cruising around charleston and maybe harassing people. Anyone i should be particularly worried about. I respect all and like having a good time, just not looking for attitudes from anyone.

that sucks, i do have the Tein lowering springs, but I dont remember it being that bad in downtown. I was there before with a lowered civic and didnt have much trouble. guess i'll just have to watch for the pot holes and bad intersections. thanks for the heads up though.

I've heard the people over at www.gscmotorsports.com do good work, but I don't have any personal experience with them. On their website they say they work on Evo's, so you might want to check'em out. You can get their contact info here.

And btw, welcome to Chuck-town
