SmikeEvo coming to Manchester, NH

I'll be up there on and off from now to August. But from August on, I will be in the Manchester area for my new position. I know there are some Evo's up there. Far more than the 1 that I have seen where I am in CT.

I have not had a change to hang out in Manchester yet. In fact, I haven't even seriously started to search for a place there...few internet searches to see pricing. So, any places to not look in? Any cool areas to look in?

For those who don't know - I also track and AX my car. I believe its the NE SCCA region up there. Any other groups to run with? Isn't there a track in NH?

Happy racing - looking forward to my move!

I am a LONG time Manchester veteran (current resident too). From Manch, its about a 30/40 minute drive to NHMS. And the same to NED. There are a lot of events that take place @ NHMS. I do not have a schedule that allows me to get involved , so you will have to search for events.

As for living and nightlife activities, here's my email twj2rr@aol.com (or aim TWJ2RR), I can shed some light on where you don't want to be But seriously, I don't mind shedding light on the area. -Tim

I've walked the streets of Manch-Vegas for 22 years. Let me know if you have any questions.
Once we get like 7 more people it could be worth a meet!
Live down town in one of the nicer apts, great for bar hopping.

Well maybe some mini-meets then. I am also a pretty good wrench on the CT9A - I have fixed/replaced just about everything on this car.

I have yet to see your car, and have probably (unknowingly) brushed shoulders with you either at the Shaskeen, Brimmer, StrangeBrew, McGarveys, Wild Rover, etc...I frequent those to visit friends who work at said bars. Do you live at Manchester Place? My friend Mark lives there...pretty nice places and its very convenient to walk to everythng downtown. I work at the Volvo dealer next to JW Hills...

It's been a long wait. Dyno is on it's way, hopefully up and running at the end of the month. We have alot of renovations going on right now ro revamp the shop and make the most of the space for our customers and ourselves. I'll give an update when everything is good to go!

Guys, I'll try to set something up, check the Hello New hampshire thread!
I don't go out as much as I used too, but I did have a barstool named after me at the Brew for a while! I'm old and have resonsiblites now!
