Welcome to Ohio, you are fairly close to I-75 go South to I-70 Lucas (indy) raceway park and National trails look to be about equal distance. Take I-75 down to Kilkare which doesn't look to be a bad tow. Honda has several plants close by and the R&D center if any interest.

Hate to be a buzz kill but what size mower and snow thrower do you have or intend to get? wink Make plans for 4-5 hours of seat time on a mower with that size area so make sure the mower has a beverage holder or two.................................and WELCOME TO OHIO beer You'll enjoy it here and I mean that. up If you enjoy boating and/or fishing there's a Great Lake not that far from you too.

Welcome to Ohio

It's pronounced "RooShee" around here. I'm about 20 minutes from Versailles and have been going to the Country Concert for longer than Moparts has been around.

If you like to drink beer you will fit right in.

Welcome to Ohio.

The Goodguys PPG Nationals at the Fairgrounds in Columbus is a great event. 6000ish cars and awesome night life. The Ohio State Fair is a super time, and there are many county fairs that remind you of just how cool it is to live in this part of the World. Welcome to the Heart of it All.

That's gonna be a problem for two Longhorns to say back, just sayin wink House will be easy to find with that big orange flag flying below old glory smile

Seriously thanks for the welcome. I am sure once we get things figured out we will be taking advantage of what we can.

Mower, don't they have guys that do that for a living smile

Certainly to fast for a stock bore space NA Mopar to run TS for sure. TD is basically becoming a 6.10 index race. Saw the qualifying at Kil-Kare for their Q16 program and Ill fit there just fine as a mid pack guy. In your fall air hopefully we can squeak out a 7.0x run

I live in a nice 2 bedroom house with a nine car garage. 6 garage doors and every one is big enough for a large RV.

A hotrod buddy of my Dad's always said a 2 bedroom house with a 10 car garage was the perfect size.

He usually made sure his wife was in earshot when he said it... lol

Not quite just a house with some dirt a pond and a three car garage. But tall enough for a couple lifts so maybe 5 will fit.

Well as they used to say on Monty Python, "And now for something completely different"

Good luck on your move and I hope you enjoy your new location.

Now might be a good time to build a fast Super Stock car or maybe something for Comp.

I have a very good friend of mine who once told my wife if I EVER mention wanting to run Comp to smack me upside the head with a brick to knock some sense back into my head. He is an engine builder and worked for RWR as their engine builder for a couple years. Now SS is something I would entertain for sure. I have to make some sort of change as I cannot run TS with an NA stock bore space Mopar in D3. I would just be off the sheet in D3. So clearly something has to change. I will likely be selling the Stratus sooner than later, unless I want to just run various local Q16 and Mopar races I guess. Not sure living 2 hours from Indy that will make me happy. Might also think about converting it to run S/G or S/C but that's just more money down that rabbit hole and I don't think I wanna go that way. We shall see but leaning toward selling it T/K or as a roller.

We actually also visited Oklahoma City and Lawton Oklahoma on this little job/relocation adventure. But neither seems like a good fit for the wife, Lawton for either of us really. So Ohio won, we shall see how it goes there. We are not selling our Vegas place yet until she is there for a bit and decides whether its a good fit or not. But the extra money was a great lure for sure.

LOL, probably good advice, but what a cool eliminator.

Lots of cool Super Stock cars up there, it would be great to see you in one.

Congrats on the move to Versailles, Ohio! It's a charming area with a strong sense of community. You'll find that people are welcoming, and there are plenty of local events and activities throughout the year to help you get settled and meet new people.
