I think it's partly because of the bad rep they have. Where do you live? What do you drive? And are you going to the Seven Speed show on Sep 28th? ( http://www.sevenspeed.com )
i got in for free. haha. i'm in a posse. just kidding.

i went to the SOS show last year. it's a joke. at least you don't have to pay for that one.

i am north of pgh and i have a 98 civic hatch. i just drive it... for now at least.

i don't think i'll be at the seven speed thing, though the idea of grudge matches is pretty cool... (i hear that is what they're having there.)

Pittsburgh's car scene is altezza lights, stickers, loud mufflers and exhaust tips and did I mention stickers? There's people with nice rides, but most often they're the ones who work at the over priced, underknowledged speed shops.

exactly. kind of like the street racing thing... i've never seen actual organized street races here... i don't know about the place in crafton they mentioned in the article because i'm just not from that area...

it was a funny transition almost... when in the article they talk about imports and then mention a race between a grand prix and a rustang... uh, hi?

as for the shops... take SOS for example... a shop that gets stuff at cost yet none of their cars are fast or anything spectacular to look at.

the best looking cars around here come from hard work in people's own garages... at least thats what i see.

LOL Funny you mention them. I was going to say something about SOS, but decided to keep my mouth closed because I know one of the guys who works there comes on the boards sometimes.

They're all a$$holes...I thought they were alright people when i first met them, but when I found out they talk about everyone behind their backs it made me sick. I dated a girl who used date a guy that works there...and let me tell you...some of the **** they say about their customers behind their backs is horrible.

But anyways, that's my rant about them. I'll never go there, buy anything from them or talk to them out of free will. I highly advise you other pittsburgh people to do the same.
