Ohh man we were in talks about giving them a lot of carbon plate for a new floor a few months ago until I heard they were having problems. Seems like such a waste. Great car!

It is a nice car, but now it needs a new home. Please contact me with any questions regarding the sale. What should I change the title of the auction too? Suggestions are welcomed.

I would change the location of where you posted... i would also list it under Honda... we posted Jeremy's CRX on there in a five day auction and we got 20,000 views... (didn't sell the car, but alot of people looked at it )

the car is super clean and runs well for what it is. Worth every dollar that they are asking too.

damn, what a sad time....I would hate to part from my project that I've bled and sweated so much for.

Good luck on the sale guys....hopefully whoever buys it keeps the performance of it up to par

Without big name sponsorship it has been hard for both John Brown and Steven Thompson to continue campaigning their car. They intend on capturing the NDRA championship, but the 2004 season (unless some big name sponsor lines up) has been considered out of the question. It has just been too hard financially for two people with families to campaign their cars across the United States with just a truck and a small trailer (in industry's standards) while keeping a competitive program.

Hopefully a big name sponsor will see the opportunity to pick this up.

Props to John Brown however, he's been in this since '93 and a decade later he is still kicking *** and taking names...it's just become too much for him to handle - trust me, I know him personally.
