Was the Camaro wreck scary?

I didn't really see it. We got there after it happened and the wreck occurred near turn 12 which is on the backside of the course. Apparently the guy had a heart attack before the turn. My thoughts are with his family and friends.

On a lighter note, here are some pictures of my last day with the Arrr. Also included are the King Motorsports RSX (complete with Mugen crate motor!), and my new car a 1990 EF Hatch...

Its still a Honda.

I actually like the EF better than the ITR. Although my driving time in the ITR was cut to a minimum that EF felt nice yesterday. If you want to sell that motor and do a swap I may have something to offer.

Too bad no RNR's or SRD though.

BTW Clayton, I may have found a good IT car. I e-mailed the guy. It is on the IT pages.

Sam, Clayton, whats happening? What was going on at RA this weekend? I just picked up my '97 on Saturday from Indy. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=240342

Oh yeah, stopped in at King to talk to Bob for a few minuteson Friday, saw someone washing the RSX and didn't think too much of it. I wish I would have asked about the JDM R engine.

Hey whats up Aaron.

Nice looking 97, 25,000 miles on a 5 year old is great. Looks nice. Keep it stock!!

The CAT Nationals where going this past weekend up at RA. Pretty good, the calmest event at Road America I have ever seen, it was kind of weird not having abunch of noise and what not.

I think I am itching to get into racing more than Clayton. He is a few steps ahead though.

Hi Sam. Yeah she will stay stock until next summer. It's got new Kumho 712s now, but I will get some 205/50 Azenis in the spring. Planned mods are minimal. I want to drive it stock and get used to it first, but plans are K&N drop in and tires next year and then JDM or ATS final drive, some light flywheel (Toda, Comptech maybe) and some mild clutch (likely an Exedy organic). Suspension, intake, exhaust will stay stock. It feels so good right now bone stock (high end power (my GS-R has more low end) and handling even with the average 712s).
