Yeah I heard about that. To be honest, I wasn't that giddy about moving down there. So many tracks, canyons, and mountains here in cali, and plenty of dirt tracks for rally too. I'm sure gonna miss those when I move. I'll probably have Dr. Gray or Tuning Tech tune my car before I leave for Florida. Any sound pollution law in Florida like in Cali? You know, if your exhaust is too loud then the would give you a ticket for it.

If you are into autocrossing there are plenty of events year round in the miami area for entertianment =), then there is moroso which is a crappy track but its in west palm beach. Some cops here are ****** if you catch one in a bad mood they will give u a ticket for tints .... About forums in south florida in this same section check out temevo ( car club based in broward and miami). southfloridaracing.com is another site
Welcome to South Florida

Ah Thanks. No tints, my car is stock for the longest time due to cali cops pulling you over for anything that's aftermarket whether its legal or not. If i'm moving over there, I'll probably install either the greddy evo2 or hks hi-power exhaust, injen intake or fujita, then get an afc controller and have it tuned. I've done autocross before but it isn't the same as the track. But I've been rallying as well. So I'm guessing Bota Raton is in south florida? Sorry I haven't been to florida or anything yet.

Hey I am in Boca Raton. You will definetly enjoy it here. There are a few shops locally from boca to Miami which can tune your car as well as going to Orlando for TTP or Jestr. There is plenty of things to do around here and you will like it I am sure. I was out in San Francisco and LA for a month and a half and I coulnt wait till I could come back here to Florida. Definetly check out www.southfloridaracing.com that it the forum which most people post on around here. Have a safe trip and get in contact with us when you come down.
