American Touge 3, Horse Thief Mile @ Willow Springs
Happy Holidays Everyone. I just got off the Japanese video Hot Version video shoot for American Touge 3 at Horse Thief Mile in Willow Springs. My daily driver/track beater was tested by Keiichi "Drift King" Tsichiya and received high praises from him. So I guess I do know a thing or two about tuning and driving perhaps.
Interestingly, my car received an unofficial score (because I was an exhibition car) of 95 from Tsichiya san. That is 2nd only to Prototype Racing's K20A Eaton M62 supercharged Lotus Elise. It also scored better than the 996 Turbo from JIC. Every single car on the list was super charged. My car has the smallest displacement at 1.6 liter and it is naturally aspirated. I tuned the car to 192 whp (dynojet 248c) on saturday on 91 octane pump gas. Tsuchiya raised his eye brows when I told him, yes you can rev it to 9800 rpm. B16A are torqueless wonders. All the hp comes from the high rpm.

ps., rj. can you let it go please? It is really sad that, you keep on banning me for no reason. I have not violation any rules here. Sure I love to toot my own horns and I just might have the biggest ego here according to some. But I'm really just a good natured kick back kinda guy that goofs off at times. You claim you have no problem with me, so why you continue to ban me?
Like it or not, I'm in it for full season of h1 next year. You guys are speculating so much about what cars I'm gonna drive. Well, you will find out in March. I can already tell lot of socal guys like Johnny Mac, Thawley, who do not know me, but some how, seems to have heard so much about me that they've form pretty firm opinions about me. Lets just say that, rumors are crazy. I'm not going to defend it anymore. But i'm here to stay and you will only see more and more of me.
My confirmed plans for 2007 are, H1 norcal. And also, my del Sol is committed to do Redline Time Attacks in Feb. and March. That's about it. I'm very busy working my *** off with AKMEE Engineering. We have few projects in the work. No I'm not from a rich family nor am I a dot com kid (although I did make 6 figures from AboveNet before). I do have very supportive family and friends that's been with me no matter what. I'm on solid grounds.

Well. Ichy warned us that he doesn't always have the best taste.

Best of luck. But if you don't reach some kind of accommodation with RJ and stop annoying him, we're going to have to ban you from the Internet.
