lata,
Good to see you finaly are settled into your new place! I hope you enjoyed the spring run and we didn't scare you off Saturday night

Hope you can make the fall run, it is a lot of fun as well. Even if it is a bit more of a drive from your new place...

Good luck with the new job and place!

--Tig!

Welcome rxgrl. There are a couple of events coming up, keep your eye on the board.

Exotic Car Show this weekend
SCDA Track Day at NHIS 7/11

We just had a Dyno Day this past weekend, was a great time.

There will prob be a tech day coming up soon as I know some folks have parts to install. I also will be trying to put together a quick Sat run sometime in August. I will actually be in East Hartford on business next week (E. River Dr right off I-84). If you want to meet up let me know.

I live in Colchester, CT. What part of E. Hartford do you live in? There are some pretty bad spots in that town.

car show

Yeah that would have been cool. i know it is every monday night from about 5/6 to 9. its at mark's auto. its pretty much right off the exit right before bradley. and if u head down by 6...chances are that u will find a guy to follow.
and its free!

but...i belive it is not happening next monday cause of the holiday.
