I'm in Asheville, NC....There is the SCrx7Club...and a few of the members are in Inman, SC (Minda, Lisa, Masin, and Adam) And new friend, Greg, who's in Greenville (I'll be meeting him this weekend at the meet...)

So, there are a few names for you to seek out...hope they don't mind that I mentioned any of them...and hopefully they will make themselves known soon to you.

When you due to be in the area?

I'm the Greg in G'ville that LT1 mentioned earlier. Actually, in Mauldin. I've lived all over SC and I like G'ville best for tons of reasons. You'll like it here.

I was at Carolina Motor Park about 2 weeks ago. Had a blast. My dad races Porsches w/ the SCCA, so I took my car and ran with him. Sorry, no pics. They guy that was supposed to bring me a camera never showed....

When did you say you're coming? What's bringing you down?

well i had a friend who moved from fort wayne years back and she moved to sc so i up a decided one day to go visit her stayed about two weeks, its just amazing down there, a whole different world, everyone is friendly, has a very relaxed artisty atomsphere, love being near places like twin falls and such, lots of good roads to daily drive, i should be down september-october of 07, im put in apps at BMW and Michilien but im getting a job with goodyear mainly for the fact that if i dont get a job at either place i can move down and already have a job and then look for better work. I want to visit in the spring time again so when it gets closer to that time ill let you guys know, would love to hangout for a night, no bars though im still a young one only 19, but still would be nice to hangout with some locals and kinda get to know the town a little better
