...and now for something complete different...
A great drive across the country, a new location for Europrice and a great 3 day vacation with Mance, Jim and the Colorado crew!
Nate Stuart (now a 034 employee) loaded up a 26' Penske truck and trailer with our goodies and cars in Vermont:

We headed out on on the 1st at 2PM EST and drove non-stop into Denver arriving at 10PM MTN on the 2nd, 1900 miles or so under our belts. A good nights rest and out to 2nd Creek Raceway to meet up with Mance on our first day:

Absolutely a blast! The track allowed us free time out as members of ACNA. I was able to get a few laps with Mance in the pissed off 90, a very well balanced 90 with top notch suspension. Some great piloting makes a car with half the bhp of most competitive, impressive and fun. Nate's 90q V8tt drew quite the crowd, lots of questions and lots of amazed people, truly an amazing sounding machine. Nate's car is also very well balanced, no front sway bar, 26mm rear bar, 380 and 350lb linear Eibach ERS springs. A super fun car to be a passenger in, the Torsen V8 rear differential is an amazing modification, dial on oversteer!
Pat Mickelson from the A4 forum was nice enough to let Nate and I crash at his apartment in Denver so we could get a fresh start on the 3rd day, plus a little track time to boot
Big thanks to Pat, Mance, Jim and everyone else that helped us on our journey and break in Denver.
On a business related note, we are up and running again in the 034 Motorsport facility in Fremont, CA. I welcome anyone to stop by that is in the area and meet everyone, don't mind the mess though, there are European parts everywhere, not to mention beautiful cars and plenty of 034 Motorsport products.
If any of you need anything or want to come here to say hi please by all means contact me!
Thanks folks!

Moved across the US to expand the capabilities of the business and get some more sun...
034 Motorsport has a great facility which is growing very quickly. I've taken up space with 034 and will be using their resources to expand and provide better service. I am also out here to enjoy this nice weather and drive my 90q20vt year round
Cheers!

Dang that Nate, he was commanding the Microsoft maps and GPS...
but we flew through the entire drive in 2 days and 6 hours. We only took one break, Denver for 2 1/2 days essentially. We did 3200 miles in two legs, it was quite the experience in RedBull consumption. At one gas stop we removed 7 cans which belonged solely to me
Cheers!

I did that same EXACT thing 3 years ago!!!
26' Penske with car trailer, 2 Audi's (4KQ and 10VTCQ). 1st 10' of truck with personal stuff, second 16' with CQ, and the trailer with 4KQ. Burlington to Denver in about 32 hrs, getting about 5 MPG. My friend was along for the ride...
We moved right after I graduated from UVM.
