i was talking to the guy with the supra that won the pinks show at lebanon valley .They have a really good street racing scene where the cops dont show and theres a lot of cars there every weekend we should go & check it out. if someone spots him they should ask where & when. They were talking about bringing their big HP supra to the street scene its a trailer queen 1000+hp monster . ---

WAY back in the day (like 02), I organized a cruise from ALB over to the Berlin Turnpike. Just google ‘Berlin Turnpike’, I’m sure that this is where you are talking about. I mopped up with my old T67 car:) ---

I guess it depends on what your idea of a good scene is. Given there are less than a dozen 11 second imports in the Albany area, I’d say it sucks. Honestly, Albany is filled with major problems: Lack of money and shops. Hell, if it wasn’t for Synapse, there would be MUCH less imports running as well as they do. ---

Couple in the 10’s and a few in teh 9 sec region! And thats not even talking about the domestics… ---

Hell, if it wasn’t for Synapse, there would be MUCH less imports running as well as they do. I know what a crazy scene is like, yes. It’s not always about how fast the cars are (but we had 170 players running around the streets of AZ 7 years ago), I’d rather hang out with a bunch of cool guys with 13 second rides then a bunch of jerkoffs with 11 second rides, for example. However, as the cars get faster the owners normally get cooler. The idea of a ‘good scene’ to me is a parking lot full of good guys and good laughs, and no fucking drama.
