Same thing happend to me the other day when I was leaving a chinese buffet with my Honda-tech shirt on. They already knew who I was and said, "are you the Art of Honda-tech?" I said "no, Im the art of turbo." We talked for like 30min outside. Kinda scary people know what I look like..

I keep hearing things about my new HB. But I keep hearing that its a red EG with a prelude motor and turbo and I run 10's. I have no idea where that came from though. People in NOVA are crazy.

that's why I stopped going out. Everyone knew me as turbo type r and it got really annoying with all the questions. I am still trying to disappear.
