SOrry guys. I dont think I can make it. F@ching school has tests and a project on that week. Its a b!tch. Sorry, but I would have loved to go. I'll be at Import face-off if anyone is going to be there. I'm trying to get a few of my friends to run, show, and race.

Squirrel- Damn man. Um...... ok. Good luck. Did the paint turn out good?

thanx wes...I lost to another 7th gen that was redlining all his gears and he eventually just walked away from me...although he had 17's and I had some shitty 87 octane otto gas in my car riding on 18's...we did it from a roll...first two times I started in 3rd and he started in 2nd gear and he pulled on me a lil'...3rd time we both started in 2nd gear and it was even till he kinda just walked a 1/2 lead on me around 80ish so from now on I'm going back to shifting like I used to...hitting the rev limiter damn near and I'm calling him back out...oh yeah I'm going to put some better gas in my car too...

makes me look bad cuz I waited on him at his job for him to get off to run him I'll run him again probably next week or this weekend because I'm putting my stock tires on tomorrow for the track friday night and put my 18's back on for the show on sunday.

Track Friday night? Man, you gotta call me before 1:30 am, lol. Anyways, you should use nothing but 93 once you slap on the turbo, also. So that makes two 7th gens you've lost to now, right?

jet - i'll run against you . i'm n/a , so it's fair , and i got 18's. maybe we can make it three losses

green - yeah , the clearcoat ran because the booth temp. was too low . i could have just sanded it down and recleared it but there is no more time for me to get in the booth this week . so i'm coming to the show primered yellow. it's all one color or nothing .

wes - everyone is meeting up at the southerlands parking lot at 7:00AM Sunday morning ! duke and hummer both bailed on us.

I know, I'm terrified of a stock d17. It would have been a good run though If you're that anxious to lose again, we can do it.

yo IFO was a blast...our crew racked up awards....let see.

We had best Nissan, best Acura, Best Accord, Best Civic, Best Toyota, Best Crew, and our chapter president was the fastest for the show and go....so I think in all we took home $800....we had a 14.2 sec car there, 14.0 sec car there and a 13.7 sec car there...ALL ON 18'S...this was my first show so I had a blast all 8-9 hours I was there...8am - 6pm...oh yeah it was nice to finally meet wes and nathan...yo what happened to my ride in the boosted civic and my race nathan...we were the last ones to leave b/c we had to clean up and stuff...oh well next time I guess...hey maybe we can go to the track this coming friday night...I think andy's going and a guy from our club is bringing out his all motor GSR that he's just dropped 5 or 6 grand in...he's the one that just sold his 400whp Civic...so I'm going out there to see what he'll run in his all motor GSR and I think I might run this time too...we'll see...

What, that I lost to a Protege because he redlighted by like a half a second? I don't understand dude, it's like **** talking behind my back and it pisses me off and I've told you that. That's one thing I don't like about Shreveport is the cliques and everyone talks ****, even if they're slow and have nothing to back it up. I'd love to catch that protege again and actually have a fair race.

And if he'd beat me straight up, I wouldn't say a thing, he'd have won fair and square but he didn't, so.....

Yea, IFO was dope, SKUNKWORKS needs to get there stuff togeather and enter for best crew one of these days.

Nathan & Wes - we just found out that we cant do the Apr 17th Jonesboro show. We have some ROTC crap to do on that day. Im pissed.

There is a show in monroe sometime soon and hooters also and we will be doing that one for sure.

lol...I think he said he'll run u again... he did tell me that u thought he got a unfair jump on him so ya'll tried to run again but something happened....yo ever since u posted like the potential D17 hitting 10's or 11's on our site and saying that you can run 13's now... EVERYONE WANTS TO RUN U ...that protege fastest time is 14.0 but he did hit like a 14.3 or 14.5 the last time at the track but he said he's got 13's in it now...its cool though man...no one talks badd behind your back...THEY JUST WANNA RUN U!! Oh yeah the dude with the GSR, said he wasn't talking shitt either but he said when he gets his car back, he wants to run too...he'll run anything though...he has I/H/E...his fastest time is like a 15.1 or 15.2...I saw him hit that. I dont know what it is but everybody in our club is calling peps out to race...they're waiting on me to get my turbo so bad OMG...oh yeah the dude with the 240 said he had a booty call but I knew he wasn't going to show up though because if you would have beat him then he would have probably looked bad b/c no ones respects the boosted D17... reason y is because I was going to go with a K20A2 swap at first but then I changed my mine b/c the cheapest swap at the time I found was like $3500 w/out shipping, add $600 motor mounts and whatever else misc. parts but in about two years I plan on having a K20A2 under my hood and I'm going to boost it but I hear u only ran that protege at 6.5 lbs...I hope so b/c he said he beat u pretty good...I told him I'm sure you got off of it after that jump though...oh well hopefully u can make me happy and prove everybody else wrong this weekend at the track...I've been feeling bad about boosting lately...Sunday morning I lost bad to a Type S with I/E with 17 inch rims from a third gear pull...try like 10 cars before I got off of it...he said he got up to like 130ish and I was doing like 110 before I got off of it...oh well...when I boost, I'm hand him his a$$ hopefully

Nice wes. How much bigger is that from the one you have now? I didnt see what rpms it begins to spoll at.

Jet- I think I'm going to be doing the samething. But I'm going a little farther. Get the 5-lug disk brakes, engine, etc. Like what Hawk did. The only big problem with the k20 in a em2 is the traction. With the bigger engine you would need to distribute more weight to the front of the car to increase traction to the ground. And then the smallest rim I could run would be 16's, but who cares.
