    So where are the places for good eating in Helen?

    I am a big fan of Diners, Drive-ins and dives as well as Man vs Food , so I am keen to try all of that kind of stuff. Snow crab , pulled pork , bbq , and importantly HOT WINGS?

    UM technically isn't allowed at SoWo. With that being said, get at me if you see me there as I have some information that will be relevant to your interests. lol.

    C2 has kinda died in them producing stuff for the R32 since I think Jeff left, but they still offer tunes for the R32 and they also have turbo kits and software for the Rabbit. C2 has had a booth at SoWo for a few years now so they are pretty in with the SoWo peeps

    gotcha

    strangely C2 wouldnt respond to my emails asking them to show at WiTW12, I assume that was because they were no longer the only sponsor allowed.



    go figure

    danka!

    I wish I could make this trip

    have fun, and dont give SKNK any polish booze.

    He was at WiTW. Cool guy. At one point, him and jesse switched name tags. I think he might've gotten tired of guys walking up to him and asking him about tunes for their cars.

    Not allowing UM is just another reason to skip the car show as far as I'm concerned......

    Dictating who can and can't come to a car show is over he line for me.

    I briefly considered driving up to check it out and meet 1610, that gem, plus my impending surgery,
    combined to kill that idea.
