So far, it looks like me, Boost, maybe Moonkid, yourself..I think if I'm not mistaken, the DGRR site's forum allows you to see who all has registered unless they haven't got that far..

Let me know if you want to meet up sometime or know of any other drivers in the area. My name is Allen and I drive a black 05 GT MT6.

Hey, PM jamie.y22, he has several guys (various makes/models) he meets with in the Morganton area. There are some 8's there as well. I'm trying to get up with them too. Just got my 8 a few months ago and have been looking for other drivers in the area. I'm in Granite Falls just north of Hickory. Anytime you want to meet up just let me know.

That sounds good with me. There's lots of options: Wendover has Buffalo Wild Wings, TGIFridays, Logan's Roadhouse, and tons more options.

I know the feeling. I'm off Monday and Tuesday, but I work third. So it kinda works out.

hey fellas- well does the autox cost anything..I checked out the LJVM page and it doesn't show anything under ticketmaster for price. I typed in autocross and nothing came up..I see it's gonna be at the Pepsi Lot (outside maybe?) Maybe we just have to pay for parking. Any thoughts or ideas?

I've been to autox events with the SCCA. I have not attended one with this group before. I'd assume it works the same way.

Contact Jordan at National Speed. I hate letting anyone touch my car and I trust them 100% but that's more for higher end stuff, not regular maintenance. For that I don't know, I don't trust the lube shops around here since they like to hire unexperienced kids to do that stuff.

Going to cars and coffee this saturday in Wilmington. It's going to be at the Chilis on S College. 3 of us are already going. A few rx7s from Jacksonville might come too. Anyone who is interested should come out!

You can't do oil changes and regular maintenance yourself?
