My Return... & Pics included!
Well, it's been a long min. since I've been on ITRCA or H-T & about 3 years ago since I last sold my PY-R(4 years of ownership) to join the Army! Finally after a year of being deployed overseas in Afghanistan, I was able to finally save up some money and bring another PY-R back in my life again! This R is super clean and originally from Ohio, plus it was delivered to me personally in NC by the previous owner in an enclosed trailer, talk about valet service. She is set up for the road course and handles like a dream & Boy does it feel AWESOME again to engage in some VTEC!
Just like everyone says about selling your R, "You'll be back soon!" & it sure is a true statement...LOL! I'm currently living in the NC area and still new to the East Coast, cause I was originally from the Mid-West kick'n it with Budman. Here soon, I looking forward to catching up with a few of u guys and start back up with HPDE & other track events again the spring and summer time! I'll share more details & mod's about the car later, but for now enough of the blah, blah, blah... on with a few pics! More pics 2 come later...

Coming out to play...

Great find and welcome home. I too am in the Army (Engineer) and got back from Iraq 5 months ago. Got stationed out here on the west coast and bought me an 01 PY ITR. Been modding the heck out it and loving it. Enjoy the car and the time back home. Be safe.

Thanks. I've lived here in NC for about 2 years now and the weather can't make up it's mind! It loves to be cold and hot, plus sweaty and dry whenever it feels like! Carolina weather is crazy, just as weird as Kansas weather too I guess... LoL. Plus people don't know how to drive at all!

I miss my old R, it was the best car I ever owned. I've been thinking about getting another one lately, I really want a CW one this time or black as a second choice. We'll see........

Thanks, I still feel like I'm new everyday with this car. I'm always learning something new about it. Got to love the PY-R's. I not sure about E9 yet... I got a lot of field training coming up around that time, but we'll see tho.

Thanks for the support and info bro, I'll be keeping up with all the track info and hopefully plan on attending a few events this Spring and Summer. We-Todd Expo I might be able to make, it's still TBD right now.
