Default So how is Steele these days?

Have they ever fixed it or is it still 4wd only for 1/4 mile? There used to be quite a dip at the end, I was thinking of making a few passes today but my car is pretty low in the front and dont want to tear anything up

my car was real low last time to Steele, and no scrubbing, except my front tires at the top of the fender -that's been adjusted since.

Big Bad JERRY TURBOS!!!

Great to hear from you. My last cell phone got stolen in my Impy SS, so I lost your number. I've kept up w/ your turbo ride via grapevine. Missed you at G9 this year.

Didn't mean to change subjects...

Jerry, have you been to Steele lately?

I'm at Regions Bank in Cartersville now, just down the road from the other bank.
