Unless someone has a bunch of cones, and knows of some private property somewhere they wouldn't mind a bunch of cars speeding around (liability issues), I think it's going to be very hard to stage our own autocross. The next best thing to me would be a place to do any work that anyone wants done on their car. What do you all think?

I think Kory's place may be in demand!

Kory...how about staging the meet at your work? Are there lifts or anything else that would make this a good place to have a meet? Eric...what about near you? Anyplace there where they don't mind us turning a wrench or two?

Regards,

Pete

Plus theres a new suprise going down on the mp3!!!!
{hint....I'm gonna need a new alternator......hmmm.}

There are some good places to have the meet not too far from me. I have plenty of tools which I could bring, or if the mods require a garage we could head back to my house. If Kory can think of a place in the city, it might be better for the people coming from Indiana and Michigan though.

Boss man gave the no go ! insurance purposes. So I'm workin on my buddy with the shop!
I'll keep you all posted.
If all else fails I can bring pretty much any kind of tool we would need to a wrenching session.Even to put on a strut tower brace
Sorry dude had to get that in.they are easy to install.

thanks, i just wasn't sure since one of the places i looked at them it said something about having a shop do it and not yourself, but i prefer to do most mods myself just cause its fun. I'm hoping to add a tach though and that is one thing i'm pretty sure i'll need a little help on.

Sounds good to me.
I think all that I will have to do on my car is running the wiring for the soon to be coming, kenwood amp.
