Jacksonville/Midway Park/ Camp Lejeune Area?

Since I'm moving back there now, are there any car clubs or anything out that way? I know Kristy is in Hubert, but what about anyone else? I saw 2 white Lancers heading towards the main gate today on my way back to Raleigh! I saw a yellow one at some restaurant on my way back from the NC Aquarium, saw another yellow one turn down Barbara Ave behind the Enon Church. I would like to find some Lancer/EVO people to chill with, but I'm basically looking for any kind of circle with cool people! Can't stand stuck up or rude people and if you can't get along with me there is a problem with your personality. Anyway, who are you, what does your ride look like, and where you at?

Ben/Midway Park (Piney Green....Again!)

I need a grill! We will be leaving here with the moving truck Wednesday morning! You sure you did not come to the Islander on your way to work when I was at the beach? I thought I felt someone watching me!!! Anyway, after we take the truck back Thursday I have to run across the tracks to HP Imports since that would be the closest place to go! Have not heard of them doing any bad work! But I can walk my stuff over there to them literally! Well, I'm logging off until I after we move and I get everything hooked back up! Moving sucks!!!!! LOL!

Thanks! That is another thought, but right now I'm thinking HP becuase I can basically literally walk my stuff there and not have to use my wife's grandfather's truck! Maybe if I still lived over behing the Top Hat. East Coast Performance is the place across from The Cave, right? Basically I just need to find the best job for the best price. I still have the paint job deal for my whole car good for $500!!! I only seen ECP a few times! The only places that I would consider are ECP and HPI, I'm not really sure of anywhere else to go anyway! I just want my stuff done right this time and I will need a little work done as far as removing my OZ spoiler and covering the center hole, putting my VIII wing together and making the sides smooth to cover the panels where they drill the wing together, fixing a few spots on the front bumper and side skirts, and just putting my hood on with hood pins! Sounds like alot, but it's really not! What do you think? I really have no experience with either shop, but just have not heard anything bad about HP! Thanks again!

Ben

8. You remember the $1 movie theatre @ Northwoods & Brynn Marr.
9. You have been to the fireworks show on base.
10. Sept. 11 2001, you just knew Camp Lejeune, NC was next to be hit by Osama's bomb squad b/c it's one of the largest military bases in the country.

Dude, you hit the nail on the head for most of that stuff! That shiz is funny as hell!!! My wife lost it! She grew up here and I was forced to follow her! LOL!!! That was one of the first things I noticed at that gas station when i first came to see her from college in '99! I was like WOW let me get a bike and hang out at the gas station/McDonalds! LOL! Anyway, Western still sucks and people still try to race me in my slow little 2 tone car!!! I imagine it will only get worse once I get my new front end and wing on and my new paint job! Well it's late and I got school work to do this week!! Later!!!
