Default What a Machine....

Just thought I would give a seasonal Hello to all the long time freinds and fellow R owners on this board. I do not post much nor have time to read as much as I use too but I am always lurking.

Now back on topic....

I uncovered the R today and drove it for the 1st time since last November. I had only driven it once between late September and November just to circulate the fluids. I must say that the ITR is such a great car. It never fails to Impress me and make me smile when I drive it!! Such percise handling and the nice n/a power of the c5. I have purchased a Deisel Dodge tow beast and a trailer and cannot wait to get back on track this season!! I have many trips planned and cant wait to see all the fimilar faces and cars!

Everyone drive safe and put those R's to use like they are meant to be!

-Stephen S

Wow, if driving an R gives you a stiffy I can't imagine what would happen to you if you drove a real car. You'd probably have an orgasm so large that your ***** would fly out of your ***.

Better than my '05 Cavalier with no power accessories. I don't even think the engine is "power".

'92 Integra &gt; '05 Cavalier

Ah well, I'll be rid of it in a few days...... The ITR comes out of the shop and the rental goes back to rental car hell.

Good to hear, dude. Are you keeping it on the street, or is it officially pulled off for track-only duty?

Adam, the tags have some months left on them so I will drive it on the street once in a blue moon, when that nice warm day comes around. Other then that it will be Track only. I need to get my money out of this damn diesel and trailer....

Mine is still packed with track **** from VIR in February, hidden under a snow mound with R comp's on it. I got close to it the other day but the mountain where it resides hasn't thawed enough for it to come out and play.

At this rate where I am, most likely won't totally thaw till April
