I live in Charleston. Just went to Jackson Saturday. I hope to get back down there soon. I think there are a few guys from that area on www.fastgm.com .

I moved down from the north a few years ago. You are going to love the weather. I'm in shorts and Tshirt today.

I was on the way to Carolina Dragway when my car burnt to the ground.. But It is a good hooking track.. it is in the middle of NOWHERE.. but you won't have a shortage of business being right across from the track. I'd love to meet you when you move to SC..

I live in Columbia, Jackson gets a good amount of traffic for being out in the middle of the sticks. Good luck on the shop!

I am in Augusta. There is alot of talk around here of the City of Augusta building a full on Dragway complex down by the airport so if they do that you will have two tracks very near to you. They are actually talking about attracting some National gigs with this track. You ready to take delivery of my car in June..?????

Good luck with the property sale, I hate to see one of the better chassis shops moving out of the new england area, but best of luck to you!

Maybe someday I'll move down that way myself, sure would be nice to be somewhere the car stuff can go on all year round.
