longview isnt that bad, car scene isnt what is used to be, gonna have to see if you can get them to start coming out agan, theres a lot of f-bodys but they dont hang out like we used to
dyno tuning wont be a issue DFW is less than 2 hours away and houston is like 4 i think
im picking up a new f-body this week so next time im in town (student at TTU) see if i can get some of the guys together hang out like everyone used to
what kind of stuff you looking for in longview

Damn lol....is there ANY hope??? Don't you people love your state of Texas???!!!
I'm not really moving here to have a lot of fun anyway. I came here for two things:
1) My dad (who has lived in Longview since 2002) was recently diagnosed with Lung cancer. I want to take care of him while he is going through chemo AND radiation. My grandma also lives there but is currently in a rest home. So i will play double duty and visit/take care of both of them.
2) School. I'm 25 and never really took college seriously. right out of high school I got a golden opportunity at a local auto shop in the Chicago Suburbs. I've been there ever since (7 years) and since the money was good (at that time), I never thought about a career beside automotive. I've been thinking about going back now. Pharmacy to be exact. With the unfortunate events of my dad/grandma, I can live with my dad, take care of him AND goto a Pre-Pharmacy program. (Thinking either UT Tyler or Kilgore College)

Good luck with that. Pharm school is very tough to get into and you’ve got to do very well on the Pcat.
