Default Looking for members in St. Augustine

I see numorous F-bodies and vettes day in and day out around town but never seem to see people on here from St. Aug. Is there some way to search LS1tech for people by location? I just checked and that doesn't look like its an option unless I'm just missing it.

ANYWAY, who is from or even in and about St. Augustine on a regular basis? Anyone???

I think just you and me. I live in St Augustine Shores by Wildwood. Where about are you? I think I may have seen you once or twice before. I'm mostly on the busa but when I take the Z out I'm hard to miss.

I used to live on Anastasia Island right off of A1A close to the police station and town hall there. Now, I live out by World Golf Village (bought my first house). I work for the city full time and home depot part time so, I'm in and around town often. Dont think I ever saw your car though.

Yup, right behind chick-fil-a.

you ever seen the little crowd of ricers at the sonic in the cobble stone shopping plaza on sunday nights? Sometimes when I get off late from the depot I will cruise through and grab a bite at the sonic and just taking a peek but I never see anything except some high school looking rice crowd.

seperate story:
I had a guy follow me one time out of the depot lot.. he was driving some older RX7 and tried racing me over the 312 bridge. It didn't go in his favor. hehe... He's the one that actually told me about the "car meet" at sonic on sundays.. haha.. oh well...

I dont live in St. Augustine, but my dad does, and I go out to his house about once a week. He actually lives off of A1A, a few miles away from vilano beach. I was going to try to make that cruise on the 24th also.

Yeah the little ricer meet at sonics... when I first visited st aug, i stopped by there for some fries and they all ran up to me and asked me to return. that was almost 2 years ago and i'm proud to say i have never gone back!!! I do work with one of the little rice boys but now hes selling his eclipse for a truck and got himself a nice gsxr600. as for that schmuck with the rx7, i think i had a run in with the same guy only thing was he tried me on my bike, i think you know how that ended for him.

Woohoo! someones seen me, thanks for the complement too!
Maybe we could all have a local meet sometime, away from rice land. We could invite the jax members for a big beach bbq or something.

That RX-7 that your talking about,.. Was it black or dark gray in color (either primer or shitty looking finish)? He asked what I had done when we were waiting for the light at US1 and 312 and then after walking him like he was standing still, he was like "so what do you really have done, cause I beat a Vette the other day". haha... riiiiight... I was like oh well... I dont have that much done. hehe...

A gathering in town here would be cool for me.. I was kinda thinking about that idea when I started this thread. Being that I do see enough people around here I wanted to see who's on this site. I guess I really should start saying hello and getting people to get on here, the more the merrier.

Oh, and AtlasTBSS : Sure your welcome to whatever we might get started up in town. I'm actually friends with some guys from Jax that get together once or twice a week (in Jax though) and they invite any american muscle cars to come hang out. Check their site and forum if you have time - www.americanmusclepowered.com

Would be nice to get a meet in downtown if there was any parking. Anastasia Park would be a very nice cookout location but everyone would have to pay a couple of bucks to get in. For now I'll just keep trying to pass the word about the jax meets/cruises and see if we can find more locals here.

your eclipse has been seen...

I might go to Sonic tonight if anyone else is going, otherwise I'm just going to Hattie's... Also, Archetype, I am a student at Flagler, when did your girl go here...
