-who would move.... if he could

 

mebbe we can all move there?

yoshi - who wonders about the "kumho" banner on the Alfa

 

Bah, they're all just a bunch of ricers. Look at their windshield wipers for Christ's sake!!

 

Yea... whut ever j00 say

-18"-19" rhyms
-silly rear spoilers
-silly wiper placement
-stickers all over the car

Looks a lot like rice to me.

Even the Honda cars have the wiper effect.

Hmmm... show me a pic of rally cars and I will move. Bimmas dont turn me on that much... Unless they rev at me and then eat my Honda dust.

Who wants to beat an M5 someday

 

Have at it. http://www.wrc.com/home.asp

-who would like to remind you that WRC is coming to PS2.

 

Yeah if they weren't on the track they would be rice.

 

The the BTCC (British Touring Car Challenge) series. If the rumors are correct, the series will NOT run next year. The manufacturers pulled support because there is so much contact in the races that they couldn't make a profit. I think the Australian series will continue though....

Yup, just like the plug got pulled on our NATCC (North American Touring Car Challenge).

 

STCC (Swedish Touring Car Challange) ?

Need some ground clearance?

Brake covers? To keep the rotors warm? http://www.sportinformation.com/1999.../volvodepa.jpg

-who is very productive at work today

 

i personally don't think that is rice because they could whoop my *** on the track. Type R accords are a european model only I think.

 

No it wouldn't, because you GoTs MaDz SkIlLs Yo

 

I know the rice comments are just tongue-in-cheek, but would like to point out the most important differentiation between rice and race is when the wings and tow hooks are functional, the decals are making a lot of money to support the car, the engine is mounted 180 degrees backwards, rearwards, and lower, the transmission is a 6 speed sequential, and it eats Dodge Vipers for breakfast, it sure isn't rice.

Dave, who wants $100,000 to spend on an Accord.

 

"mad" is right

 

Mmm, S40 Touring cars. In the lead, no less

Pat, who thinks Willard hasn't had much to do at work today

 

According to this article, http://www.autosport.com/newsitem.cfm?id=16847&series=6, BTCC is alive and well with Honda sponsoring 2 CTRs.



Let's hope there is room in the SpeedVision, er Speed Chanel, lineup between all the nA$$car shows to air some races.

 

Well, I wouldn't mind moving away from Sweden right now (where the picture is taken). It's around 32F outside and it will soon be time to put on the snowtires... Damn I miss the summer!

 

Cool, hello guy from Sweden!

 

I lived in Denmark for a while. If we all moved at once we could rent a house and split the rent. But we would aslo have to find jobs........damnit......

 

I prefer UTCC, Ukranian Touring Car Championship. I actually built my car to their unique specs, such as destroking my B18c to 1.7 liter, acid dipping suspension and other structural components for weight reduction, etc.

Scott Rinde (RR98ITR on this board) has won the UTCC series for the last 2 years. His nickname is "Lil Pierre". It's quite an exciting series.

You forgot the 6 pot, 14" brakes!

Now, are you sure about the eating Vipers thing? I remember seeing the Dodge Stratus with all those goodies only hitting 13.7 in Car and Driver. Vipers are hitting quarters in 12.2 secs. and 0-60 in 4.4 secs.

 

Big wheels with big 14 inch brakes behind them.
Slammed but with just the right amount of suspension travel.
Aerodynamics that also serve as eye candy.
High revving low displacement engines.
Sequential 6 speeds.
Slamming paint jobs.

I love Touring Cars!

Frank,

My fast laps at Willow are 1:36's. I hope to drop into the 1:35's at the TCRA race on Dec. 1st and 2nd.
