Hey guys,
I may do some autox this summer as my car is set up pretty well for it (suspension, tires, etc)...but my turbo is slightly large for this application.
I wouldn't mind meeting up with anybody in CT near Vernon, Manchester, RockyHill, etc. I have yet to meet anyone on here in person. On a side note I would never cruise around down at the pike...that was cool when I was 15 but today with all the attention imports are getting your just asking for a ticket.
My car is garaged and not driven in the winter so I just started driving it a month ago and put in a twin disc finally. Hopefully I will have some descent numbers to post this weekend since I should be getting tuned again on Saturday.
I have a Buschur HTA35R w/headers, 780cc injectors, etc.....going in on Friday .....so well see what happens.

April 20th autox with http://www.fcscc.com/
New Lot in Stratford, CT
"The site is located just off I-95 for easy access, has a very smooth surface, and has an area of nearly 13 acres."
Smooth and 13 acres!!? Could this be an alternative to Devens? I probably went twice to Devens but stopped because its a haul of a drive and have remained local

hahaha that was probably me. Its not a RS man just a wingless MR, didn't you notice the Brembos and BBS rims (soon to be volks anyway) , but ya everyone thinks its a RS because of the wingless. Also I wouldn't rent a helmet, just get your own before you actually autox.

ok... why buy a AWD and hibernate it during winter?
i really don't get AWD owners who hibernate their frikin car during winter? what's the point of buying AWD then? beside it's a frikin Evo, the dam thing was design to go hard so take your car out and have some fun!
i'm disappointed in you guys.

Well....first off my car is not my daily driver. Why would I drive it in crappy new england salt and snow when I have a Grand Cherokee to drive? Just because its awd doesnt mean it must be driven all winter long. Also, its pretty easy to change an evo to not be designed for winter anymore....my suspension and tires wouldn't fair well in snow anymore.

this definitely sucks... Seems like the only option for me is to go out at night on weekend.. I cant go for tune or cruise because I work weekend mornings... and during the week, I'm in school till 10 pm almost every day...
I'll just drive around, and when I see an Evo, I'll drive him off the road....so we can talk.. LOL..
