I plan to go to Evadale this weekend but I hadn't made it yet. I'll be in Lake Charles this weekend. I'll probably make Wes come, too.

Lots of racing I got beat by a b20/vtec n/a but I was running low boost. I have to see how he likes higher boost.
Plus, Friday night we're going to the track.

I would NEVER race on low boost unless I knew I was GUARANTEED a victory....

Ok, first off, he's a good friend of mine. He knew how much boost I was running. Something you'll find in the world of racing is that there is no such thing as a guaranteed victory. We were racing for fun and that's all it was. You need to get away from those kutsuju guys for real man. Don't think that you're going to win every race. Just because you lose a few races doesn't mean you're car is slow or it sucks.

aight bro...give me ONE GOOD REASON Y I NEED TO STAY AWAY FROM KUTSUJU....this isn't your first time bringing this up but this time I need to know what's your reason and whats your motive for saying this...PERSONALLY, I really think you're a cool guy...I've never said anything bad about you, and I'VE NEVER TALKED BEHIND YOUR BACK OR NOTHING...I got nothing but respect for you...I understand its all fun when you're racing but with the competitive nature that I have, I would have ran high boost...THATS JUST ME THOUGH...I've never said your car was slow...I understand you win some and you lose some...but when I race, I'm going to do everything possible to win...Like I know a couple times erik has beat dudes on high boost but he has lost to the same dudes on low boost so after that, they tell everybody they beat him but IT WAS ON LOW BOOST AFTER THEY JUST GOT THEIR FUCCCKING DOORS BLOWN OFF ON HIGH BOOST...and chill out b/c I'm getting the feeling you're bashing my crew...whats wrong with my crew...I feel we have the BEST CREW IN SHREVEPORT/BOSSIER AND ONE OF THE STRONGEST CREWS IN LOUISIANA and we have CHAPTERS IN NEW MEXICO, ARIZONA, GERMANY, JAPAN, AND OHIO AND I FEEL THAT WE'RE COMING UP AND TRYING TO MAKE A NAME FOR OURSELVES WORLDWIDE... how would you feel if I said "Yo andy I think you need to stay away from Honda Racing Crew" wouldn't you take it as an insult after so many times...I mean c'mon I'm getting the sense you trying to flame my crew... please enlightened me here...not trying to flame you, I just need an explanation...oh yeah PLEASE ENLIGHTENED ME WHY YOU SAID YOU WON'T RUN ANYBODY IN KUTSUJU u ran one dude, one of our guys didn't show up and u called out another guy and then u changed your mind about running b/c you said "I'VE GOT MY REASONS"...I would like to know what are those reasons?

My problem with kutsuju is most of them run their mouths and don't know **** about cars. They have left a bad taste in my mouth, sorry but it isn't my fault. I'm not hard to get along with. I accept anyone that accepts me. When someone talks trash to me saying that my car is slow, can't run 11's, whatever it is, it is unfounded. You saw the threads, so tell me one instance where anyone said anything that held any water. Also, when I run someone and they can't wait to stage and redlight by a 1/2 a second and keep going, do you really consider that a win? And then they won't run again? I don't consider it a win. I honestly don't know what's been said about me behind my back and I don't care. It's all drama that I don't care to be around. And can you tell me that pretty much everything you've seen and learned about racing hasn't been from them? I know you told me you just got into the scene when you joined the club. That's fine if that's what you want to do but I don't look at the sport the same as those guys do.

who ran their mouths...the only problem in my eyes that I believe you have a problem with is Erik, the guy with the GSR and I guess the guy with the orange mazadaspeed...okay thats fine but that shouldn't turn you away from the entire club...thats just like saying if I run across three slow GSR's then I should assume ALL GSR'S ARE SLOW...get what I'm saying? and plus the guy u ran with the mazadaspeed said he tried to run again and he admitted to possibly redlighting but when ya'll tried to run again, I guess something happened or cops showed up or something...not sure about that but he didnt go on the site bragging about beating you...and I've learned pretty much everything I know so far by just reading on different boards INCLUDING YOURS...so yeah I've only been in the import scene since december I guess...I used to have chrome 18's on my car and the civic before the one I have now was MAJORLY RICED OUT!! all I'm saying is just b/c you ran into a few problems with Kutsuju, dont take it out on the ENTIRE CLUB...like the little saying goes, some of the views from kutsuju members doesn't represent the overall view of the entire KUTSUJU RACING CLUB lol...I tried to introduce you to the guys that are MAINLY IN RACING LIKE YOU ARE and one of those guys is the guy with the orange mazadaspeed and there are a few other guys locally that you can speak to about cars and racing THAT ARE INTO IT ALOT MORE THAN YOU THINK...the rest of us are mainly SHOW AND GO...the orange mazadaspeed doesnt do shows but he's at the track with his car EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT UNTIL THE TRACK CLOSES...but dont get me wrong there is some GO in Kutsuju but some of the other guys locally like to balance it out with show and go instead just all go or just instead all show...but like I said dont like the little run-ins you've had with the club make you turn your back on us...hope this clears things up and hope to see you in Baton Rouge on the 18th of this month so you can AT LEAST win $100 for running a 14.99 and under and possibly $200 for running a 13.99 and under oh yeah I believe the main reason they down you talking about running 10's and 11's with SOHC is because I guess its never been done but dont hold me to that statement...either its never been done or they've never seen it... below is a pic of my rice days...lol I'm on my third set of wheels and first set of alloy wheels

well jet, i can answer that a little for you....and i am not tryin to down the club or be confrontational....i got on sni website the other day, and i noticed andys thread bout doing 11's on sohc...well, the president of kutsuju, your boy erik...or whatever his name is, was a total **** to andy...callin him rice and everything like that because he said he was going to run 11's....well first off, that turned me off from the club...the president, first hand should represent the club with a positive attitude....not one downing others peoples cars...i could see if andys car was 10 different colors, 3 different color body kit with factory rims, and a huge wing one the back, with home made intake and exhaust...but his isnt...it is a clean car with kit, sound and BOOST....

http://www.sportsnimports.com/forums...threadid=25868

there is link to your boy punkin out andy...that right there would steer me away from the club......he represents the club as a WHOLE whether you think it or not...


well, just that i would let you know

yeah andy and I already discussed this and Erik B is the PRESIDENT OF THE LA CHAPTER ONLY ...We have 5 other chapters....Ohio, N. Mexico, Arizona, Japan, and Germany so therefore Erik B's opinions and personal views DO NOT represent the ENTIRE Kutsuju Racing Family...Kutsuju didn't start in Louisiana, it branched out to Louisiana...and also our Chapter Presidents aren't choosen by how much he/she knows about cars and what not...he/she is choosen because of their time and dedication to the club, not because of what they drive or their knowledge about imports... I think another reason y erik is against boosted sohc b/c a guy in our club recently had a boosted D16 and his fastest time was 14.2 in the 1/4 then he fried his motor and now he has a boosted B16 running low 13's...so Erik didn't want me to end up like that guy with a fried motor trying to boost the hell out of a sohc motor so he pointed me in the direction of the K20A2 which I will be picking up in the future but I just couldn't afford to get it and do what I wanted to do to it at the time...not only did erik suggest me to do the K20 swap but alot of other guys, some in Kutsuju, some not in Kutsuju...so to make a long story short, DO NOT LET ERIK B STEER YOU AWAY FROM GETTING TO KNOW OR HANGING OUT WITH KUTSUJU....he's not our dictator lol...we have a mind of our own also... but I will say this...not many people is going to believe a sohc can run 10's or 11's UNTIL SOMEONE DOES IT

i can run 9lbs...i was just playin it safe...this is the only engine that i have, cause me and friend cant get together about getting the other one...besides, Catalyst said that he doesnt recommend running 9lbs DAILY anyway...i mean you can boost around 11lbs, but i wouldnt do it with out a built block...plus, my motor has 84,000 miles on it...and i want to take it easy until i get my other motor....


green, as for the tires..i am not positive yet...i just got off of 36 hours straight storm work...so with a 36hr overtime check, i can buy any tires that i want.... ...i really want to get some drag radials, but i dont need four, and i dont want to put them on for daily use...so if i can find me some good daily driven tires i will get them....anyone have any suggestions...
