Exclamation Moving to NWA!

Hey everyone. I'm in Joplin, MO right now, but I am moving to Springdale, AR in May once I get married. I go down there just about every weekend now though and I have only seen a handful of F-bodies in the NWA area and was wondering if there was a meeting spot or if there are even that many of you out lurking around. I'm really hoping to meet a few car people that aren't a bunch of ricers...

At least you'll be close to the Centerville track. I'm stationed in Little Rock, and made the drive up there once. Nice track. Join ARRides and sort through the rice, you'll find some events and meets

MOKAN is a lot closer than that track for me. Thanks for the added optional track though.

Its not totally dead! thunderstruck507 on this board has a Chevelle with an LS1 in it, I've got my new LS1 Datsun, couple other LSx guys. Not a lot goes on as far as meeting up I don't think, some ricer/racer folk meet up at a sonic on college sometime I think. Centerville is a good track, but Mokan is about the same distance and quarter mile, although I can't say I've ever been to Mokan. I definitely want to start trying to get a weekly meet started, especially with the cold weather gone. Next time you come down this way shoot me a PM man, always game for meeting up with another LSx owner.

There are a few fbodies but you rarely see them out and about together.

I thought I PM'd you but I guess not. www.ozarkautosport.com is our local forum

We are having a meet tonight at West Mountain Brewing Co/ Tiny Tim's Pizza on the square in fayetteville. 7:30pm
