Fellas -
Looks like the Army is sending me to Korea next summer. I will be stationed in Yongsan (Seoul). Anyone know anything about the local car scene?
Wondering if I should bring one of my cars - I've got a few projects, some that could be drivers by next summer. The Army will ship one vehicle, so I could have them transport it. Don't know if there are any emissions issues to deal with.
Can't imagine that the driving will be very nice; Seoul is huge, and I know traffic is lousy. Still need something to wrench on while I'm there, and I know the Army has an auto shop (lifts, tools, etc) that I can use while I'm there. Not likely that I'll have a house with a garage.
Also trying to figure out if there are any road race or drag race venues. I have one road race project and one street/strip car. I could also wait until I arrived to buy a musclecar of some sort, but thinking the choices will be limited.
Anyone know of any hot cars that I could get there that I couldn't get stateside? Skyline GTR, etc?
Thanks,
Scott
