Default Anyone near Mechanicsburg PA?

I just wanted to see if anyone here is in or near Mechanicsburg PA. I've been pretty bored lately and I was wondering if anyone wanted to go for a cruise when it gets a little warmer. I know there are a couple of F-bodies here but I'm not sure if they are on these forums. Here's a list of what I've seen the past couple of months:

Green LT1 Camaro (lives off of RT 114)
Silver 98-02 Camaro in Harrisburg (V6 or de-badged)
Black LS1 Trans Am on RT 114
Black LT1 Trans Am on the Carlisle Pike (sounded badass!)
Red LS1 SS in downtown mechanicsburg
White LS1 vert Camaro by the Capital City Mall
NBM LS1 SS (SSmiley on here, he does construction on houses in my neighborhood)
Maroon 3.4 Camaro (Tried to race me but LS1 vs 3.4??)
Black LS1 SS in Best Buy parking lot

So is this any of you guys? Even if it's not, just post if you live in or near Mechanicsburg or if you don't mind driving out here. There's gotta be at least a couple of you guys around here to even up the muscle cars to ricers ratio.

Would any of you guys be interested in meeting up somewhere and going out to eat some rice when it gets a little warmer? I don't know about your areas but the carlisle pike is littered with ricers on friday and saturday nights. I wouldn't mind driving down to lancaster or york either though.

I'm always game for F-Body meets. There will be a meet in the spring at the Hanover Sonic. I really don't know of any other good cruise & meet spots other than in Hanover with Eisenhower Drive (lots of ricers, Stangs, and even a few 4x4's with rebel flags) but the York guys might know of better meet locations in Yorkor elsewhere.

Nice! Surprisingly enough, I haven't raced one 'stang yet and I've had my car since last June so it'll be fun to take one on win or lose. How far is sonic from mechanicsburg? (I could look it up but I'm too lazy )

I'd actually have a pretty good chance running into you on Sundays. My girlfriend lives about 5-10 minutes from Messiah College. Not sure if you're familiar with the Bowman's Hill neighborhood, but that's where she lives and I usually head over there on Sundays.

I'm in Camp Hill.........on 17th Steet, right off of Market St
On the 1st Saturday of the month, starting in April, the Soda Jerk Diner in Hummlestown starts their monthly cruise-ins.
Weather permitting I might head out to shake the cobwebs out of my exhaust

I used to work in Camp Hill, and used to take my LT1 T/A up there on occasion, and last summer/fall I used my IROC as a DD for a couple months. I got a job really close to home so I'm not in the area anymore.

But the T/A was red and stock looking, and the Iroc was blue with a 4" primer cowl hood. I used to see fbodies all the time, but mostly v6s.

fxgs, your car looks absolutely amazing! Normally, I think that black wheels look really tacky but on your SS they look perfect!
Anyways, I'd definately be down for a cruise or whatever in Hummelstown.

Live in York but grew up in Hershey. We used to run around Carlisle Pike back in the day when people used to sit at Circuit City, Sheetz, Walmart and I think a movie theater down the other way.

Head down to York/ Hanover if you want to see some cars.
