I was in the local auto store today and this guys asks me if that was my typhoon out front and I told him yeah. And he said his dad owns two of them and he lives in Salem. One is all white and the other is green. He also told me that his dad once had a syclone and rolled it. Is this anyone on here? J/W

Dont know if there on here ,but ive never seen a white or green Ty ,I have seen 2 black ones and thats about it around here.So he must not drive them very much.I drive around Salem area everyday for work and i always keep my eye out for SyTy's.

He has to be an older guy to be the dude's dad. The guy I was talking to was probably in his 40's. So I'd imagine his dad is in like the 60's?

Re: Salem, OR

there's really no sy/ty activity around these parts at all. i'm surprised that anyone on here is local to me. john's user is 93phoons but he is rarely ever on or posts. i just talked to him yesterday.

Re: Salem, OR

If you talk to him again, ask him if he has a son that lives in/or near arcata,CA. I'm curious because I'll be seeing his "son" at the local track a lot.

There are not too many Oregon guys... there is one other guy who lives in Oregon City. I know of a few Syclone owners in the state but none who visit the board too much/at all. There is a pretty solid group in Washington.

Re: Salem, OR

i know of one guy that i have heard has ran his sy at woodburn(local dragstrip) but alas only the times when i can't make it to the track. apparently he was troubled with low 11's when he was aiming for mid 10's(through the grape vine). it's caged and all. apparently he is not a part of this forum.

There is a white on for sale at a dealership in Longview. Low miles......I have looked at it and its very clean. Just not the #1 color I am shopping for.

Re: Salem, OR

Well my first choice is Green/grey combo.....then red.....then white.....not into black. There are a couple in Ca that are green currently for sale. I was in the 10k market but from my reseach it will cost 15 to get under 100000 miles. Is it worth extra 5k to keep it under 100k miles ? or do u put the $$$ into the rebuild. I like the idea of the less wear and tear. JMHO
