I thought CEG was sorta a club. We have meets and what not. Some people even put the stickers on their cars. There are some people that even get t-shirts and calendars and what not.

Before my time, I guess.
Really not a strong/large enough following to have a Local club. The regional meets are where it's at...um... like the DRAGON RUN!! See my sig!
And yes, I drive up from South Florida to tame the Dragon. People from all over the world come to drive/ride Deals Gap (The Dragon). This area has some of the most beautiful scenery in America, IMHO THE most beautiful east of the Mississippi.
There are also other things for the family or S.O.s to do if you wanna bring them along & they're not interested in the driving. There are a couple of geo-caches to hunt for, waterfalls, the caverns/underwater lake & boat ride, recreation areas, jet boat rides, rafting, and I'm sure there are some other typical things too - like antique shopping, local festivals, etc.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Hey, show up for the SCCA races at Homestead on Sunday. You'll likely see a couple of 'Tours on the track, or at least watching. Cost is $0 Check the thread in this forum for more details. I'm sure the Cheif would enjoy the competition at Moroso one night down the road.

It would really be cool to see more CEG-ers show up & even run at the SCCA events. Unfortunately, most owners in the local area seem to be more into the show than the go... or doing stupid [censored] like street racing. Come out, have fun, learn how to drive. Zero intimidation, everybody's friendly and trying to get a good time & have fun. Besides, where else can you come to see a gathering of rides like these: Racing, showing off, having fun, and FREEhttp://autox.carlc.com

Besides the middle picture, I can see those cars at my local Sonic's any Friday/Saturday night. Regular cars other than the civics include a regular wrx, a wrx Sti, srt4, integra type-r, s2000,etc.
BUT, there isn't legal racing and even the illegal races come nowhere near as close to auto-xing. I wish I lived closer to ya'll.

You've got some active local chapters of SCCA near you, I'm sure. Check out the web to find them & have some fun this weekend. At least go watch.

About an hour away and I'm busy this weekend, and really nearly every weekend with work,etc. I wish I had money for some separate wheels and tires and I would auto-x. Probably wouldn't do well with worn parts (like control arms, struts,etc. are new) and would probably be grouped in a class with much more powerful cars,, it would still be fun though.
