I don't like to go up there very much, but it is usually a good meeting place, I live about 12 miles away, so not far at all. We should meet up there sometime. Ill have my car out of the shop by the end of next weekend.

Sounds good to me. I've got a buddy with a 300zx that I always meet there. Next time I meet him up there I'll give you a call if you want, just shoot me a pm with your #.

Darlington isn't very far at all from me, maybe 45 min. I am pretty much right in between orangeburg and darlington, so either track would work for me. Never been to any in orangeburg though. I'm down in Charleston a couple times a year, but I don't typically take the car, is there any good tracks down there?

I'm definitely down for a Darlington road trip. I still haven't run my car in the quarter, just the crappy 1/8 strip in Elgin.

Yea man, that sounds good. The weather should be pretty nice, but then again there is no way to tell seeing how its been 55 in the morning but 98 by 3 in the afternoon. I'll see if I can't get some guys from around here to go also, but I dont know many camaro guys except those that drive v6's (that is all there is around here).
