I was sitting in traffic on the granite street bridge in manch yesterday about 3:45. i was looking at a re pre-98 that came off of 293N and while i was watching that car go by a T-red SVT drove in between me and the pre-98.
it looked pretty stock, but i only caught a quick look.

btw, my boss said that bridge will be closed today. I haven't had a chance to verify that info, but you might want to take an alternate route home. And then they're going to close Second street sometime soon. Ugh, that area is so hairy!

you could backtrack to Amoskeag and get on 293 from there. Just shoot down Canal street, stay in right lane and that'll loop up and over to Hooters. Whip around the rotary in the left lane, and hop on 293 at the bottom of the hill. Fun twisties near the Coke building too.

you know when you take that shortcut road next to your building? The one that the weird billiards place is on? It loops around the corner and it turns into Canal street at the lights/bus station.
