Sup fellas,

I'm moving from Austin Texas to South Bend end of the month. I know jack about the area accept that it gets friggn cold. I'm transferring jobs up there and moving up solo. I don't know anyone nor do I have any family up there. So I thought I'd throw out a shought to say hi to any peeps there. I hope there's a good racing scene up there or a track near by. If I meet anyone from here, I look forward to a few runs

So don't be poons and let me know how it is out there and if your ready to run lol

Your not that far from Martin Raceway in Martin Michigan. Alot of us West side Michigan guys get down there in the summer. You should try to make it one day. Probably the nicest track around, its only 2 years new.

Your only about a half hour east of me. Where at in South Bend are you staying? I get into South Bend a lot. There are a lot of cruises and car shows in the summer and Osceola Dragway is a few miles from South Bend.

Thanks to all for the replies,

S-Willis, I will be staying right by Norte Dame. I work in the hotel industry. I will be working/living at the Jamison Inn. It's a block off campus. I will probably be staying there for a while, unless I choose to get a house "dunno". I'm assuming it won't be warming up in Indiana til around Aprill or so??? Looks like Oscela Dragway will have a new guest soon

Limige, I'm moving to South Bend Indiana.

KGRESOCK, yeah the cold... I've never been in snow b4 and I'm really not lookn forward to that much. Sure I want to experience it, but I'm sure it'll get old quick. Definately sumpn new to me; a whole other life-style. From the sunny beaches of Aouth Texas to the iglo territory

dreamer1q, how far is Michigan from South Bend?

South Bend and Mishawaka are very nice areas. My wife and I like to go down there, especially since they have a Chick-fil-a and there are none in Michigan
