Default IM moving to VA....and kinda freaked out...

ok well Im moving to front royal to work at moyer motor cars and well Im in st pete FL. we have a pretty good automotive website here called www.tamparacing.com
Iv been on there for years and have had tons of fun but what Im kinda freaked out about is what's the car comunity like in VA? Im a nissan guy with a background of bulding all manor of cars from honda,chevy,nissan,DSM's,ford and so on... I have gotten used to having a site where we have a forum for every make of car that include FS forums for each one and has made it nice for easy to get parts for my own projects as well as customers cars. now how would you rait your area as far as car meets and track event's?
as well as used and new parts avalibiltiy via this site and are there any other site you might recomend more that woould be local to VA?
AND what is around for dyno's? and who would you recomend for tunning?(imports)
also I would prefer that you only list dyno shop's and tunners you yourself have used.
we have a fair amount of people tunning and a 90% of them claim to be the best in the west...but only about 10% are worth while and trustworthy with customers cars...

Im sorry for asking so many questions on my 1st post but Im moving at the end of feb. and i dont like change so i like to have my duck's in a row so to speak. Iv been doing this a for somtime now and I dont want to be surprised if there is nothing as far as dyno suport and desent parts stores.

but anyway thanks inadvance and sorry for all he questions

Some of those Tampa clowns tried to start shit here a while back. I wouldn't claim to be associated with them if I were you.

Mustangs rule the streets around here. No one dares stand up to them.

mustangs dont rule shit ... they are like civics for hopped up white boys that want stock fast cars ... i smoked a 5.0 gutted with cam and other head work the other day in my stock motor b20b .. well except for some tuning and little extras ... dont get me wrong i had to fight for it but du n dun dun... stock gt's get left quick round my way. redline9.com <<< great site they woulnt flame you like they will here. welcome man good luck. but the gt 500's ... sick...nothing wrong with a cobra either ... but i hate 5.0's always seems to be some 20 year old white kid with a tribal tatto band around his upper arm that likes to talk shit...= waste of my gas!
