****EDIT: It is also the 2011 NASA Honda Challenge H1 NATIONAL CHAMPION Honda Challenge's 1st, TWO-class, back-to-back champion.



It's a great issue that shouldn't be missed!! Thanks to Andy Hope for the great snaps and write-up thumbup:

 

hardly a dissection, but a decent glimpse of what the car is made of...

but for a "race" issue, it was a bit lacking in all of its 98 pages...

 

my favorite issue is the "race" issue. I think they did great and hope to see more rr/ax issue's. Kinda wish they would lessen the drag cars.... same car over and over, and kinda an old game for the Honda scene(compared to rr/ax).

Cool articles though. Good to see some HC coverage.

 

Very nice. First thing I read was your feature.

 

..."Andy Hope...I smelled his foul stench when I cracked the cover of that issue".

Meris - Faster on 17's? "Noo Whey!..."Whaa? Look at those spring rates! And no front bar...So retro."

Scott, who read the F2K article and thought "My pile o' Money's Too Damn Small!"...

 

It was the first feature i read too.

 

 

Cool, I'm glad you guys saw the article. I'd heard a few comments on the Buttonwillow story but nothing on Jonathan's. I haven't read what was printed yet and hope it didn't come out negative or harsh.

 

It was all nice Andy, your car looks really good Meris, congratulations.
Mine doesn't look too bad either

 

Ooooohhhh, I gotta read about the Buttonwillow action! It was great to meet ya and race with ya....

Congrats on the article!

 

For the life of me, I tried several book stores and other drug stores with sizable magazine racks and I can't find this. Anyone have a scan of the article or done reading their's that they would sell for cover price shipped?

 

Did you get an issue yet? If not, I'll send you one!!! pm me if you haven't read it yet!

Thanks!


So whats the plan going forward if you sell this?

 

I have a DC2 rolling shell with a roll cage and it's been sitting for years. I've been wanting to build it, but not enough funds.

 

That looks like a lot of fun but also a ton of work and development compared to where you are currently.

Grats on GRM article about the NASA Championship too.

 

Article?? Grassroots Motorsports? I haven't seen anything...which issue?
