Default Intro and n00b status for western va

Hello western va,

Did an intro awhile back, thought I would contribute to the western threads lol. Heading out from williamsburg tomorrow to beat hurricane irene to my junior year at ferrum college. I enjoy the slower pace out here, nice change for 3/4 of the year and in being in the moonshine capital is a plus. If anyone can lead me in the right direction when some meets are in the fall and a decent shop to put my car on a dyno that be most appreciated

For those who are wondering this is the car I'm bringing to 540

There are couple shops near bedford, one of which is featured on this forum and is run swva tuner. The other is C&H automotive its in between bedford and lynchburg. Idk how close to ferrum college/rocky mount you are located, but neither are a bad drive if you go 122. Any mods to the calibur? They're pretty rare around here, I've seen a black one a couple times but thats about all

Thanks for the info on the shop. I have mopar stage 1, 4in intake, and a custom dual twin tip exhaust. I should be somewhere near 305whp/300 tq, would like to see what it is on the dyno. Off topic, ran a 13.76 on the 1/4, quick lil thing

A 13.7 isn't too bad, honestly its one of the quicker cars on the western section. Regardless if people on here would admit it or not lol. If your ever around roanoke on the weekends shoot me a PM. If you wouldn't mind id like to see what my 1er could do against that lol

It wasn't meant as an insult to anyone. He seems to prefer performance mods to visual mods, as it appears most westerners do. So I was just complementing him.
