Default My H-Cup/H1/H2/USTCC/WC/GA '06 Civic is featured in Import Tuner this month.

OK, I'm almost embarrassed to make this post. But, I have no shame, and the article came out really good. It is the June issue of Import Tuner. There is an orange G35 Time Attack car on the cover.

The article mentions a few of the people who helped me put it together like Andrew Horn, Bernardo Martinez, Marc Maksimow, and Danny Sanchez. But it leaves out Tom Liang, Tyson (I don't think he has a last name or maybe that is his last name?), Steve Ellsworth, Dararath Pung, and RJ DeVera.

Anyway, if you find yourself in a bookstore you can open it up and tell everybody, "Hey I know that chump, he got lapped by Chad and that California Dude."

Congrats on the publicity Andy. BTW- I got down to low 1:12.8's in my junkyard motor H4 car at FIR last weekend, so if you bring that (totally blingin') POS back out here on street tires again, I might have something for you this time.

That's "CRX god" to you. That got a little mixed up though. While I am the greatest driver who ever lived, I by no means claim to be the CRX god, King, Jr Assistant Squad Commander, what have you.

Sorry, no more road trips on street tires. The local guys may get their shot at Willow in May though. I think I may burn up some street tires out there in PS and the enduro. That's getting fast! Keep pushing man.

Those are the series it could run in with a little work.
Racing would be nice.

Good Job Andy. There is no such thing as "Bad Ink"
The (God Father of Honda Cup NZ) 'Big Al' and I really enjoyed the tour today.

Speed and exposure have a twisted relationship.

I was going to post in the appearance forum but I was afraid of getting flamed. If someone thought it was really a race car just pretending to be a show car I'd never hear the end of it. They can be quite vicious you know.

I doubt anyone would confuse it as a race car pretending to be a show car, you could always prove them wrong by posting the NASA-AZ video if they do give you trouble.

Bought the issue today at Barnes and Noble.

Andy, let me know of any upcoming events with the car. I'd be glad to take more pics.
