I love the area, but yeah if you hang around bridgewater or in the blackwater areas, you'll see some sweet cars.

I saw that Geo the last time I was at NB, I forget what it was running tho. There was also a Suzuki Samurai, that was trailered in and I think he was spraying, iirc. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

The 1 liter of power, abd 155R12's. i ran a 14.8@43mph that day. i just wish i had some cash with me and entered in the gamblers race, cause the three runs i ran were within .002 of each other. everyone else that was running was all over the place. add in a 7 second head start, and they would have really overshot their dial in.

If you took out the huge sub box it would have probably lowered your ET a couple seconds.

My neighborhood at SML has some pretty sweet cars, you just hardly ever see them out of the garage, haha.
Dunno, I lived in both Roanoke and Richmond and seen more in Roanoke than I have in Richmond.

Why do you say it's a POS?
