bguy40 Posted March 6, 2015 Report Posted March 6, 2015 I've been creeping on this forum for a little while now and figured I'd finally speak up. I'm new-ish to the DC area (been here just over a year). Just looking for some people to talk mini stuff with, drink beer, and drive fast. Not all at the same time...at least the latter two. Just got my stage 2 tune on my 09 MCS a couple of days ago and now I'm just waiting for some free time to put on my new suspension. I live in Alexandria and yeah. I'm trying to make this NOT sound like a match.com profile haha :top: B 2009 MCS - Pepper white
