Hello all,
I've not posted in quite a while. Still checking in on various threads.

Been busy doing a move. Wanted to be closer to my kids in Virginia.
Took the decision, we settled in a nice area in the panhandle of West Virginia.

Shepherdstown, home to Shepherdstown University and just down the road to Summit Point Raceway.

Any fellow teeners in the area, let me know.
I know a few are in Virginia.
Be nice to meet up when the dust settles here.
Cheers,Dion

Great choice Dion. That’s a great area. I’ve not been to Shepardstown but I’m in Winchester a couple of times per year and it is really nice. And Harper’s Ferry is a really neat spot. Always fun stuff going on a Summit
Point

Good luck and much happiness.

We are in the process of having a house built in WV, along the Shenandoah River between Harpers Ferry and Charles Town. So, we will be neighbors, hopefully by this time next year.

Very cool, being close to Summit Point is always nice. Granted it's only one of 2 tracks I've driven on, but they have 3 circuits to keep it fun.

I think I have the most frequently driven 914 in Fairfax County, maybe even Northern Virginia. Which isn't saying much; I take it for a spin about once every three weeks when the weather is cooperating. Would be happy to be part of a local meet-up.

Or maybe 914 invasion at Katie's on a Saturday?

Awesome, Dion! Shepherdstown is a pretty cool place. Been there a few times. And being near Summit Point is a bonus, although there are plenty of twisties in the area that aren't part of the track. Hope all is well, buddy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I know the truth -
You moved to get away from the 914 Mob hooligans, especially Ralph.
Perfectly understandable.
All the best to you and your family Dion !!

Congrats on the new location...I've always loved Shepherdstown and Summit Point. My uncle and aunt are track marshals and such out there, have been for over 40 years. I'm originally from Frederick MD, but the snow in Utah is much better than there. We use to go to W.Va to the college because the drinking age was 18, and the college girls were much cuter!
Enjoy the area there and nearby Winchester with their arts, great food and wine. Don't forget to run a river at least once a year...it's great for your mental clarity.

Definitely will be exploring.
