You up to a get together? I think we have 4 in Fredtown that are on the forum.

BTW - I have instructed the techs and sales staff at Britt to encourage people to join this forum.
Lately it stays home most of the time since she works from home. I live a little south of fred not far off rt1 so your likely to see it running around south point and all the new stuff there. hopefully the mirrior will be in this week and we can ge it fixed, its damn hard to drive with out it.

I have a Black 05 SRT-6 coupe and live just on the Stafford side of the river from Fredericksburg. I've had the car for 13 months and it stays in my garage most of the time, which is why it is seldom seen. It now has 2500 miles and is exactly like it came from the factory, absolutely no modifications. Really like the car and it sure does get a lot of comments when I do take it out. If you ever have a gathering in town I would like to join.

Man I put more miles on mine in 2 months. I just hat all through WV on Saturday. I put over 900 miles on it according to google, I think it was more than 1000 with all of the stops we made, and non-logged driving. Had a good time on some of the mountain roads.

I can probably spit and hit your place (not that I would want to of course). I live near the VFW on the Fred side. I think we should get oll of the Fred XFires together some friday night, and have some Chili at Hard Times, I am free most Friday nights, just suggest one, and a Time.

Congratulations on finding us. We make it down your way often, but havn't been there in a while. We love to go to CaryTown, what a quaint little place in the middle of a big city.

BTW There is also a Virginia forum.

Still working on getting our DSL line set up in our house so I still don't have internet. Just logging in on my girlfriend's computer. I hate to say it but I won't be available on Friday night but I am always up for a group drive one of these days. Scott thanks for the roads, I will have to check those out when I get a chance.

We need to set a time. The Commute always sucks on Friday too, and this Friday is probably out because it is going to pour!

If anyone has a better place/day/time, please submit it =)

Sounds like fun but I am booked for the weekend, It may be a little sloppy up there with the approaching weather. Are you going to put your car on the track? Used to be able to for $25-$50 after the official race.

couple more sightings. White limited coupe on 17, and followed a yellow roadster (non mhs one) down 3 on the way to work. Think it had an army sticker and another sticker beside the plate on the back, older couple driving.

naw not right now, the x-fire is having so issues such as some valve train noise I do like and well we're waiting for the new driver side mirror to come in. plus since it is "her car" i want her to go throught the classes up there so she can realy learn how to drive it and let her be the first to take it out on the track. track days will be alot of fun once she gets used to it and i get my RX7 ready for the track again.

Seems like they all have some valve noise, especially after being driven hard.

I like that track, but I doubt I can get the car up to 150 on it. I need to find a nice big oval, that will let me on it for a half-hour. After that I will need to get more gas!!!

I noticed a little tap when we got it with 6k on it and it has just been getting gradually worse and now with 13k on it it sounds rough and doesn't seem to run aswell and smooth, its going in to the dealer as soon as they get the mirror in so we'll have them look at it and do an oil change and look at a few different items.

Saw a black SRT Roadster this afternoon on Princess Anne. Never saw the driver though, it was close to Carls, so just may have stopped in. I passed by again 1/2 hour later and it was gone. It was raining so mine was in the garage, and I was driving the van (commonly called the "Duck" - not sure why, it's blue).

We had to take the crossfire to Britt today, because of the baffle sensor in the trunk preventing the top from going down again. When we did We me a lady that had a red Roadster. We talked to her for a while, she said that she would probably join the forum.

While we were there, there was a yellow roadster as well, but we didn't mee the driver.

They have a Black Limited 2007 Roadster for sale, I did not inquire about the $$$ or mileage, and there is another red Roadter parked way in back, with no plates on it, I suspect they will eventually put up for sale.

The red coupe at John autosales on Rt. 1 in staffors has aparently been sold, as it was no longer there on Friday. I pass that dealer almost every day.
