Chapter 11 Chit Chat - Charlotte, NC

[demonmk2]

have any of you guys heard anything about a meet/dyno GTG at JDM racing in harrisburg this friday? it's posted on ncdubs. what kind of cars do they tune/build?
was thinking of maybe going but I'm afaid of being consumed by Honda's , I say that because I assume that the "JDM" means japanese domestic market.

[gill2003]

I might go to Charleston. Its too far away for a student to make plans LoL.

I want to go though.

Just awesome seeing the old with the new. I think this should be in a VW advertisement.

YAY!!!!!!!!!! I knew there had to be some pics of my car out there.
That made my day. That other MKII had a few other pics, but none of mine.
If there is a GTG in that whitehall area in the near future I'm game. I just found this thread, but I will be sure to check back now and then.

JDM Racing is less than a mile away from my house... all I've seen up there are Honda's and apparently they do diesel trucks too.... seems like a small place but I've never been inside, just seen it from the street

But I can fix it for you in person.

[MikeKondilis]

went to target again today. still couldnt find a gti, but i did get a dodge charger srt8, '64 lincoln continental, and a 911 GT3

the closest ive seen to the gti is the black car called 'audacious' or something like that.

[starr18t]

just a heads up...my birthday is a week from today. All of you can go in on a gift if you want.
