Default Moving to North Carolina

Like the title says, I'm moving up to Charlotte next month to start at NTI. Just wanted to see if anyone could suggest some decent apartments around Mooresville/Huntersville somewhere in the range of $700/month. Also, would like to meet some of ya'll after I get settled in if you could keep me informed of where ya'll meet up during the winter.

BTW, how's the weather during the winter months(just trying to see if it'll be an adjustment from what I'm used to with the snow/ice down here in GA)?

Well, I'm one step ahead on that. I figured I'd try to set up an appointment to get the truck tuned after I get up there and settled in.

yeah, the guy in the white ss is quiet, or maybe i just dont know him verry well. from what i can tell its a stock car with LM exhaust. does sound pretty good tho. if u see me around my car sometie stop by, ill let ya here tha rumbler since your thinkin about gettin it. its a little louder than what it use ot be now that i have the LT's.

about more performance, they have a nice shop, did a good job when they dyno'd my car, they got the A/F almost perfectly straight across the board and with theit tune and the 3.42 gears i droped aroind .4-.5 off my 1/8 mile times.
