PA/DE/MD Tristate guys get in here.

I get what you're saying, and have first hand experience with what you are saying. But in all of my years (I sound like Grandpa telling a story here), I have had a couple of all-seasons that are better than some supposed "max-performance summer tires." It's about picking the right tires. A good max-performance summer tire will beat the best all-season at the track, and a good winter tire will always beat an all-season in the snow/ice. Not that a good all-season is horrible in the snow/ice, but it's just not better than a winter tire.

That said, it's about what kind of driving you do. My car will probably never see the track and won't get driven in the snow but will be driving in sub-30 degree temps. For my kind of spirited driving on Creek Rd, a good all-season will do me fine.

Now, if I get another set of rims, they will get a set of summer tires and the stock rims will get a set of all-seasons just for cold weather driving.

yeah i wanna see someone with a set of summer tires follow us up creek rd on our all-seasons and see if it matters.

i am calm. why's everyone gotta be so damn boring and dull? LOL. everyone keeps saying the AS tires suck. they dont.

New owner in DE checking in. I haven't seen a single Fiesta ST in my travels around here. I'm always in Downingtown, PA and sometimes in Moorestown, NJ and Philly. My car has been sitting on the dealer's lot since Octoberish and the dealer in Exton has had one for a few months so they don't seem to sell well around here.

Did you get that car at porter ford? If so I'm sorry the sales guy let me beat the crap outta the gears back in nov. My car came off the truck the day I got it, wasn't processed to test drive yet lol

Was it Rick? It's ok, I did too. It's how I test drive cars.

[johnnyaf87]

So back in jersey I used to organize a small crew ~20 cars for a five guys meet once a month. If you don't know five guys best burgers on the region imo. But would you guys be interested in doing something. Sonic meet, buffalo wild wings.... ect? Let me know I'll open a Facebook page to get us organized.

 

[propergarage_ST]

Annapolis MD here. if anyone's having meets or track days let me know. ill bring my ST out.

 

[johnnyaf87]

I'll be spending time at Cecil dragway as much as possible. I was there last night, only got 2 passes before the rain came in.

 

[Natedogg]

You are super close to me then. Within minutes. I haven't seen you around.

A meet would be cool. So would some track time. I'm more of a road course guy than a drag guy. I have to find time for all of this though. This year is nuts so far.

Had a change to take it on Creek Rd on my way home from work before the rain came in. This car is so much fun.

I work in New Castle, can catch me on SR1 or 7. Sometimes you can catch me on kirkwood highway.
I think you should show me this creek rd sometime lol I'm fairly new around here but I'm down for some open winding roads. New Hope is a great place right on the water.

It's on the north side of Wilmington and goes all the way to just south of West Chester. It's actually Chadds Ford Rd in DE then changes to Creek Rd in PA. I found that south bound coming out of West Chester is more fun than north bound. There are all kinds of fun, twisty roads on the north side of Wilmington. Smiths Bridge Rd is fun because it has lots of ups and downs too, and a cool covered bridge.

I'm usually around the 40 area in Bear, and Kirkwood/Centerville, and 141.
