Default Import Show- Rained out, but turned into a road course :)

Louisiana Import Face-OFF

Today i planed just to show my car at a local event. The event is drag racing and car show. I was doing the car show (due to my car is not a drag car and my clutch sux). About 2 hours into the event, it starts raining, they open the "road course."

Road Course:
3 Cars on at a time
Probadly around 1/2 mile long
around 10 laps
5 dollars

My 1st impression on the wet surface, my tires held really well. I was expecting flying all over the course. My only prolbem was my rear end would not come out, I needed to tightning my suspension (Tein RA). Overall it was worth 5 dollars and it was fun as hell. I spun around one time, the 1st time i have ever spun around. It was actually pretty scary seeing the other cars coming


WET course

ill post more pics

Rain, the great equalizer for ITR's.

I'm running stock suspension and my back end swings around with no problems in the rain (even when I don't want it to ).

My suspension set f6-r10, well thats starting from softest going to stiff, so theres not telling.. I was actually get understeering before the rear would swing, I would even let off the gas drasticlly to try to bring it around, but it wouldnt, it just held..

to each there own, i prefer sleepers, maybe thats why. maybe thats why i painted my carbon fiber hood too. oh i can see the flames coming my way now. "why did you paint it man, its carbon fiber" well because, attention leads to theft and blah, blah blah, i dont need that with this car

well guess what to each their own, you want me to give him a cookie for buying each and every upgrade for that car the day it came out

on another note, you know **** about whats out for the rsx. why doesnt he have these upgrades for the rsx then

High Power VTEC Camshafts
Uprated Valve Springs
VTEC Killer Camshafts
VTC Killer Campulleys
High Power Head Gasket
High Compression Piston Kit
High Power Connection Rods

he has none of that and dont tell me you cant get that toda stuff because there are 2 guys around here right now with the camshafts for that car and the pulleys. so dont make claims that arent true. and another hammer for thinking you know it all

so mister know it all, where is that list of engine mods for his car?

and no one hated on him or the car, they just gave opinoins so one last for you

High Power VTEC Camshafts--- may turbo it
Uprated Valve Springs ---------- why do that till he fully builds the head
VTEC Killer Camshafts -------- may turbo it
VTC Killer Campulleys-------- pieces of crap IMO
High Power Head Gasket------- doesn't know if he will turbo or go all motor ( he got the header cause he shows the car too)
High Compression Piston Kit------- he may turbo
High Power Connection Rods-------- may turbo


just because you think your car has to look stock to be cool ( which i still don't understand) doesn't mean everyone thinks that way
