mustang boards

not honda civic mike=ricer boards:wrongforu

 

Just remember ONE thing. LOTS AND LOTS OF NAWWWWWZZZZ. He needs the big bottle, better make it two of them. He knows nitrous isnt for amatures, well, Mike is no amature.

 

Ahhh....I see your point now.

 

 

And becareful, because.

 

 

My lord you are old...bed at 9:00...

 

Hey, when the wife walks in and does this what would you do?

 

yer wife?

probably run... run as fast as I could

 

:O :ducks: Mike carries XD...

Good man Mike. A man with priorities

 

You know, Jackson is only about 7 hours from me.
I could leave at 6:45 am, be there at 1:45 am, take care of some light work, be home in time for CSI tonight.

LoL while that is funny, i gotta admit man, that car does sound like ****... LoL, sure it may be fast but my god?... if you wanted to go racing why not look into a high performance import, like a WRX or something? u got the turbo and everything already there, light work and u've got a race ready vehicle... (and u can open up to off roading events and what not...)

Not to hate on YOU particularly, but IMO opinion, the look of a car is just as important as the speed... any one can buy a cheap 1980 import throw in a turbo and make it quick, a friend of mine has a 300 hp integra and spent like 5 grand on the entire project... but it also looks like ****. Mike, i know UR not worrying about looks, but i'm talkin about the broad spectrum of cars in general.

I guess all i'm sayin is a quick Honda will never do it for me...and clarify this if i'm wrong, but your doing this project because the wear on your GT is guna be greater then the cost of this new honda project?

good luck with everything, but i'm sry thats just not appealing to me...

 

 

And BTW where the HECK have you been?

 

Actually, it is not about the wear and tear on my GT. I had another Mustang that I was going to build but it would have cost close to $5,000 just to get it to the track. Total investment for this Civic to be race ready.....$700.
This car is going to cost next to nothing to build, cost next to nothing to race and give me the track time I so desperately crave. Guys, this is not an import-domestic thing, it is not even a rice-no rice thing, it is a racing thing and if you have never done it (legally on a track and no not drag racing) you would never understand.

 

I know exactly what you're saying...

But I sure as hell wouldn't drive the honda... I'd spend the extra money... thats just me though... And I am an idiot... so... whatever floats your boat... We just really really don't like hondas...

have fun racing it...

Well, I dont know all the classes, but i would imagine a honda/acura, or even just civic racing would have ALOT of people in it... what about an old 240sx? do you think someone would be able to find agood class for that?

 

It wasn't that long ago that you were asking the same questions about your car!:loser:


:yawn:

 

+1:ban:

 

who is we?

Also, finding a car to fit in a class like this is hard, because there arent just Honda or Nissan classes, they are all grouped together, and the support for the honda is much great and cheaper than the 240sx is. 700 dollars race ready, you cant beat that with a stick.

 

Whoa big guy. Nobody said anything about broken friendships. As long as you keep 'ol blue pretty and fast, there is no question about friendship, actually, that's not true either, buds till the end, no question.

But it is a HONDA.

 

There is a Honda Challenge Series, not a Nissan Challenge Series.
There is a Spec Miata Series, not a Spec Toyota Series.
Yes, you can race anything as long as it meets the safety specs. They will FIND a class to run you in.
Look, I found a cheap car to race, it wouldn't matter to me if it was a Lawn Tractor or a Bar Stool Racer, as a race car driver, you learn to never turn down ANY opportunity to drive competitively, but then again, how many race car drivers do we have posting in this thread?

 

I say we need to do the barstool racing thing, that looks like fun!

 

yeah till you topple over. I wont race anything more narrow than my bottom

 

...which isnt hard to find.... JK man

 

BTW, for those that care, car is home and in the garage:

 

WTF are you doing up this late old man? car looks great Mike. BTW what tires are you going with?

 

Toyo Proxies RA-1 205/50-15 shaved to 4/32. :shifty:

 

wow Mike..been off the boards for a little while and alot changes!! Congrats on the new project; I think you are making the right decision since you really want to get out on the track and race since that is what it is all about!! Cannot wait to see how this turns out!! Good luck bro!!

 

:drool: Those are like a constant stream of super glue on your wheels
