its a fun place if you catch a good day..they have a track day that lets u run whatever u got. kind of a run what ya brung track day. but the auto-x and drift days gets a good crowd..you get free rides and theres a couple local guys in the formula drift series that take there cars and gives people rides..if u ask them and ur car passes expecting they (the pros) might just take ur car for a spin..i know they drifted a 5.0 mustang and did pretty good..i got 2 vids on my youtube page..

look up "2008ryanb" on there

i need to get back up there one of these days..

I'm guessing they are talking about this: http://www.starlitecarcruise.com/

There's another one up here every weekend in the Boardman area if you don't mind driving up this way. I think it's saturdays on South Ave just south of 224.

Starlite has 1500-3000 cars every Friday night depending on the weather.

If you take the PA Turnpike to Cranberry it's 5 minutes or so down 19.

Is that at the Chili's by the mall? I've been to that a couple times as my wife is from Boardman. There was an IBM 05 (guy was a member of Buckeye Goats -- I believe that was the club) that cemented my decision to get my GTO. This was three years ago

The one I saw was on the other side of town across the street from GFS. It's down the road from where Olive Garden and Kmart are.
