Welcome aboard. I live in PA...up in the NE. Be SURE to go to CJ Pony's next July for their all-stang car show and cruise. They have these events each month, but the big one is in July. Over 300 stangs.

You're near one of the best drag strips around.
www.maplegroveraceway.com
Check out their schedule for test and tune nights so you can get some timeslips. There are quite a number of fast cars in the Reading area. You should be able to find a decent dyno/speed shop around there as well. You're close enough to drive to carlisle next summer when the Ford Fun Weekend comes along. A number of the major mustang magazines are in the new jersey/PA area as well. I know a Saleen dealer is just a few exits down the turn pike. The guy who dyno tunes my car and a number of sick sick fox bodies is in allentown which isn't too far. Trust me, you're in a good area to own a stang.

yea i know about maple grove and will be checking it out soon.. I do need to update my timeslips.. i've added a few things since i left FL and the air is much nicer up here..
As for being in a good place for mustangs.. yea if i travel an hour or so.. however where i was in FL there were 5 mustangs on my block alone..
1- 10 Sec 306 nitrous monster notch
2- 11 sec 347 LX hatch
3- 03 Mach 1
4- 00 GT
5- 95 FemStang Cobra..
and my slow 13 sec Notch.. so 6 on one block...

Here i've been here 2 months.. out cruising all the time.. and all i've run across so far is an 86 GT sounding pretty sweet oh and a fox gt black with yellow trim with South Carolina plates he didnt seem interested in playing.... and a bunch of stock.. 99-04
