by the way, how much was it to paint all ur parts?

 
Rep Power: 215

Thanks! I agree, just got to build up the funds.
To paint the hood and the lip, they wanted to charge me $375, but I was lucky to have connections and got away with $200. BTW, the hood was CF and required a ton of work to smooth out since it was in bad shape. Much more work was required than a normal hood. A normal one should be cheaper to paint.

FYI... Mike Jonathan and I went to ACH tonight and its really different. the centerline has those bump markers which help you see ahead but suck if you like to use both lanes. the roads havelots of gravel and rocks so be careful. Newly paved road is nice and thats about it. it was kinda wet in alot of areas so the car was really squirely.

Very nice turn out, Evan! Looks really good.

Yeah, ACH was all right; lots of gravel and the road was pretty wet and lots of fog out, too.

I </3 my Civic!

Erp. If we do ACH at some point I'm going behind you guys. Sounds like you guys haul ***.

Feel like going next weekend? My car won't be clean but I don't give a rats ***. We can stop and Newcombs for some eats. I still haven't driven the road past the tunnels.

Bump for a dead forum. Come on people. I need to procrastinate!

i don't wanna study anymore.... i hate the bumpy light reflector things....but hey...it keeps u in your line xD

 
Rep Power: 290

I don't mind the reflectors since I don't cut corners.

I'll second the not studying. Anyone know a good method to determining zero force members in trusses. My book is kind of vague.

 
Rep Power: 268

the reflectors are actually good to use to learn your own driving line....bkus you can realize when to turn after so many times of practice to get the best line. can't wait to get back up there....but all the gravel/debris is really gonna suck... hate it the most.

and they repaved the road? which part?

 
Rep Power: 290

He's probably talking about the section past the tunnels that they repaired after the road washed out a few years ago. I remember reading that the road surface didn't need repair, save the lines and reflectors, after the fire.

congrats evan...looks good man.

i'm sure not having name brand tires had a lot to do with that...

My 1000lb weight handicapped actually helped with traction this time around. i just need to fix my lights.

Thanks for the nice feedback guys.
Let's do another drive meet before the end of the year!
I haven't gone since I had those bald tires. Now I got my potenza's and I really want to test them out!

 
Rep Power: 268

if we can figure out a day/time when they clean the road...maybe that's the best time to go. kus the gravel really can cause problems if its unexpected. and i've havnt been up there since like 3 weeks before the fire... so i really wanna see how it has all changed.

 
Rep Power: 303

Nice. I liked my set of Potenza's when I had the fat fives. They handled very well on ACH

Raceland Coils! They're the new big thing on 7gh

 
Rep Power: 215

Haha, IDK if a BIG thing is necessarily good. And they're so cheap its scary.

That forum is the worst case of monkey see, monkey do I have ever seen.

 
Rep Power: 304

most def. man

 
Rep Power: 268

anyone know a place that sells locking NRG hood pins for a good price?

 
Rep Power: 253

Racelands havent been tested enough in terms of road racing. so yeah i wouldnt get those

\such a true statement. low and slow=fail

check A1 motorsports or legend motorsports

 
Rep Power: 215

Now that i think about it, I won't be able to afford coilovers for awhile and my suspension is good for now. It's not the stance I want, but there's a lot of other smaller, cheaper things I can take care of first.

 
Rep Power: 268

finally all done with finals...time to relax and have free time (:

btw when/where is the next meet?

 
Rep Power: 304

Rep Power: 268
