I spent a little over 12yrs in Charleston... Moved to VA in 93 (got tired of getting layed off every ~5months). I go back maybe once a year to visit family and such..
Next time Im up maybe we could meet up and grab a burger or something.
Used to be some decent cars in KC around the mall but the cops had pretty well squashed any cruising/racing by the time I left the state. Used to be good buds with Dave at Daves Machine shop on the west side. He drove a maroon ~79 Malibu with weld draglites, and 1BADBU on the tag. Havent seen him in years though.
Take care..
