Mindspin311 Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 There is a car club at Virginia Tech and they are always looking to add new members to the club. Especially for Tech students, the club is a great way to meet fellow students who share the same interests as you. I highly recommend joining if you are a new student. Great way to make friends and network. Being a club member allowed me to get a great deal on my LGT since an Alumni of the club is now the sales manager of a Suby dealer. The website is http://www.carclubvt.com At least visit the site and check it out. Im not forcing anyone to join, just seems that a lot of people dont know it exists. I will be down Labor day weekend for the game in Charlotte saturday, but I think we are going to try and organize a little meet in the commuter lot Sunday afternoon so everyone can come out and see each other's cars. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me or hit me up on AIM. -Justin VT Grad. '08 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mindspin311 Posted August 22, 2008 Author Share Posted August 22, 2008 Cool man, do you know when they're having their next meeting? Their website isn't very up to date... Ill find out for you I just yelled at the President for the website still saying it's summer. Hopefully in the next few days it will get changed. Until then, feel free to join the forum and start talking to people, introduce yourself. I have a feeling they will be doing a few events before the 1st actual meeting. A guy with a 05 SWP just joined like 2 weeks ago. So you wont be alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
