Re: Albuquerque, New Mexico Honda Squad
Cool meet guys. I enjoyed meeting some cool like minded folks who are just into Hondas. There were some ill cars there, too. Good to meet everyone too. Looking forward to the next one.
Also, on the way home I stopped at Trader Joe's and met the guy (that y'all may have seen around town) with the (almost) full carbon S2000. I told him about the meet and got his card, so I'll let him know when we get together again.

I've met that kid before. He does custom interiors.
And both of their coupes are EJ's. I'm pretty sure that is Will with the 6th gen.

Here's some unedited shots from the meet last weekend.
I have more upon request.
Right now I'm thinking of having a more organized meet on the 30th. If anyone has any ideas for locations or activities, LMK.

Re: Albuquerque, New Mexico Honda Squad
We are definitely trying. If you wanna post some shots of the kind of cars in your crew that'd be cool. We could organize something for when you all could come to town. The boosted Integra bay posted is actually the black teg in the second and third shot with it's hood popped. That green one is hella boosted though, said he's pushing over 430 to the wheels.

Re: Albuquerque, New Mexico Honda Squad
Ok so FYI guys there's an SCCA autocross in the Cliff's amusement park parking lot on February 6th. I know that's the same day as the Motiva BBQ but I know where I'm going. The racing usually ends mid-afternoon anyway so you could really make both.
The cost will be $20, according to what I'm hearing. You can find a tiny, tiny bit of info about it here http://www.rgrscca.com/schedule.htm (basically: I'm not a liar).
Church autocrosses are fun but the SCCA runs a much more organized ship, and with that benefit comes some caveats: Registration for the racing ENDS at 845am so get there and get teched early! They also run drive-work format so if you race you will have to work a corner or something during the other heat. Info here: http://www.rgrscca.com/autoxEventInfo.htm
It's crazy fun so put on your sticky rubbers and see how quick you can go in and out. Of cones. I'd love to see some other Hondas representing out there!

It's a real deal 98 SiR. Definitely made me smile. I had put a flyer on the owner's stock looking EG hatch and he showed up with that.
Here's my money pit. I'm tucking the bay as we speak.
That **** is definitely clean. I hope to see it and meet you at our next meet.

Re: Albuquerque, New Mexico Honda Squad
Heres my wagon and the wifes hatch at last years dyno day
Bay pics
Does anyone know where I can get my lip off of the wagon fixed? It lost a battle in the construction zone here on base.

For sure. I'm thinking the 13th but that might be too soon after the Motiva BBQ. What do you think since you'd be driving up here?
[/QUOTE]
Um im not sure since the bbq is not this saturday, but next saturday, we could meet eachother there and talk about a date. The cruces people are doing a riodoso cruise in the morning and ill loop up to abq so i hope to be there mid afternoonish, but im going for sure.

Re: Albuquerque, New Mexico Honda Squad
I remember seeing your wagon on base when I used to deliver for Papa John's. Always noticed it with that big lip. Never assumed it was so boosted. Your best shot at saving that dope lip would probably be a DiY with like fiberglass and epoxy. I watched my buddy completely repair a ripped bumper cover that way.

Some mega nice cars in this thread. It's nice that there's a pretty good showing around here. And since we're all showing pictures, here are a few of my ratty old thing in action:
I've since got proper numbers.
