Can anyone recommend a shop within 100 miles of Worcester (01609) to get my PT sway bars and AP end links installed and properly setup?

thanks

It makes sense unfortunatly I dont se much activity in the NE area as far as meets, BBQ events and cruises. Every time I see an 8 on the road they driver could care less there is another one. I've been on a few forums in the past and had a blast with a lot of the people at the meets and drives.

Here are some routes I mapped out based on experience and twisty road suggestions in other forums. Both starting and ending at Armsby Abbey, Worcester.

Route 1: Northern circle (1hr 8min)
144 Main St, Worcester, MA 01609 to Main St - Google Maps
20% highway
80% twisty single lane roads

Route 2: Reservoir circuit (54min)
144 Main St, Worcester, MA 01609 to Main St - Google Maps
20% highway
80% twisty single lane roads

Route 3: Highway circuit (30min)
144 Main St, Worcester, MA 01609 to Main St - Google Maps
80% highway
20% twisty double lane roads

Armsby has a bunch of beers on tap from an international beer festival that was in town a few weeks back. Tentative date is this Thursday, the 26th at 7:45pm (alternative date could be the 1st of August). Meet at armsby (lots of street parking) and Drive 1st, and then beers after (optional). I'll be grabbing a beer for sure with a car enthusiast friend who will be excited to check out the 8s. I haven't meet up with 8 owners yet so this would be a treat. Interest?

Sounds like Thursday is out but the good news is we have at least 3 people down for a cruise, possibly August 1st (Wednesday).

Anyone who wants to participate, check out this link to state your availability so we can get a better picture for dates and times that work in August. The 1st is our tentative date so far: Doodle: RX-8 club August get together

Feel free to distribute the link

I'll try for the 1st I can't make any promises since my company sort of runs month to month and im usually tieing up loose ends the first few days of the month.

If i can manage to push things off a day or get lucky and wrap up early in the day im going.
