I dunno where the thread for '04 Expo location has gone, but here's an idea.

I know mid-ohio is one of top 3 choices. So, why not contact Honda of NA and see if they can get off their asses and give us some support at Mid-Ohio. I say Mid-Ohio, since one of the Honda factories/offices is in OH. If they don't show, we head over to the factory/office and start picketting.

Ok, that's my waste of bandspace for the day.

 

or we could just all meet at Honda BEFORE going to the track and they will be like WTF?

I think it would be a nice surprise and they would get a kick out of it

 

Sean, I think you need to get out of the office more.

 

so everybody drives up to honda, in a honda and pickets what?

 

YEAH, LETS BURN THE PLACE DOWN!!! WOOOOO!

THE WE'LL GO TO ARKANSAS, AND TEXAS, AND RHODE ISLAND, AND....

Maybe get Honda to get their heads out of their collective asses and bring over all the other Hype Rs (DC5R, EP3R and NA2R).

I'm sure if 100 Type-R's showed up, they'd notice us without having to picket... That would be awesome... some would probably come out to see what the commotion is... (either that, or security would... )

 

ohio is closer than az.. i'd be down for that..

 

Also, keep in mind, Mid Ohio is only ~1 hour away from Cedar Point...where you can ride this:



Specs:
0-120mph in 4 seconds, then
Straight UP 42 stories....then
Straight DOWN 42 stories!

Rollercoasters suck unless I get to drive on them.

DUDE! That coaster looks CRAZY!!

 

Yea we could all drive up to the Marysville plant and demand to take a few laps on their 7 mile test oval.

...and this one.

There's also the East Liberty plant next to the TRC oval, and the engine plant in Anna.

 

Sean, are you bored at work?

hahahahahahahaha

 

You know I think it sounds like a great idea, if we're in Hondas backyard I'm sure they'd be more likely to attend if we're in their backyard. Maybe we could arrange a visit?

 

At the very least you could problem get the HART guys to show up. Don't know if they still have their Grand Am Cup RSX's and supposedly they were building a Grand AM NSX but either way they're a really cool crew that has a huge wealth of Honda performance knowledge.

Holy SNAP... hot damn... that looks nuts.

 

I think that it would be awesome to raid honda, let them know what is really up. Since the factory is so close to the track, hopefully we could actually get Honda support this year.

 

had a good friend just finish and internship there and they have a bunch of USDM and JDm R's just sitting in one of their enormous lots... would be nice to see them do something for the meet!
