What's good in the way of the car scene? And is there anything going on there besides Norwalk?

well even though you are the other side of town there are always tons of cars shows/swap meets/cruise nights. People will chime in...

Quaker Steak on sundays nights in Avon is always hopin'
Norwalk on TNT Friday nights is good times....
Summit is alwasy having shows throughout the summer months
I would be willing to be that there is some sort of meet-up or crusie night every night of the week.....

Bob and Denny please chime in!!!

BTW - welcome to NE Ohio....I hope you like shitty weather in the winter months

Thanks, I've lived in that weather before. I grew up in Northern Illinois, having a garage is very important to me. At least the first house I'm going to be staying at has a 1 car garage.

Norwalk is pretty much the perfect track, the only downside is you'll get a pass every hour and a half to two hours...........buuuuuuut dragway 42 you can run all night long and make a ton of passes. Welcome to the area!

Sorry, I hadn't been on Tech in awhile. Been spending time with the process of moving and dinking with the T-Type.
