NCPT mentioned that this was coming up so thought I'd ask this publicly in case we have other members who would like to go but don't have the info on it... any info would be welcome. I'll just be getting back from Dallas, TX, and Atlanta, and will be running the new custom tune from Rage-Tek via the Predator on my PT. Would like to show it off to those of you who would like to drive my 5-speed with 325 hp at the crank, 258.8 whp. It'll snap your head back and scare the snot out of you in second gear, just thought some of you tuners out there would like to drive it and see what it feels like!!!

Thanks for the update. My bookmark takes me directly to the forums here so I miss the one's that aren't mentioned in this section.

ok...someone help me out here. I live right off 321 now, and have driven down to the I85 intersection twice now, and don't see a place called Tommy's. The only thing I see that resembles a drive in restaurant is a mexican restaurant called Los Argos next to the Exxon. Can someone give me a little more specific info on location?

You need to go on the other side of 85 toward the college, you will see Tommy's on the right maybe a mile or so from 85. If you are coming from Shelby you exit on 321 and turn left and go under 85 and it is on the right side.

Well, the place definitely is NOT like The Beacon... Its actually a rather small building and there is nothing that really stands out about it. Very small...but the food is good.

Is it after where 321 splits or before? Bulb Ave and Tulip Dr are both just shy of a mile up, and Rankin Lake Park is right at a mile, just curious how close I am based on my map?

I called Tommy's, they said they are 1/8th of a mile past the college if you're going south on 321, down the hill.

Anybody interested in cruising together to Tommy's? I'm going to cut cross-country from Lake Norman, out 73 to 16, down to Stanley Lucia Road, over to Stanley Dallas Road, then to 321 south and Tommy's. Anyone want to meet up, let me know, I'll have radio on channel 4, or mobile 704-236-1303.

Does this place have a orange or red colored roof by any chance? and is there a church on the other side of the road?
