Only person that comes to mind and that "looks" stock is Ed(Zgyspeed). He does not look like a grandpa but is middle aged.....

He had 5 lug and those cool fast "Type R" stickers. His rims were white but he had white hair! He was not middle age.

heh, i love the title "grandpa in an ITR", always funny to see an older gentleman in the stereotypical young rice mobile. There is a guy who owns a PY locally from me in his late 40's who always looks out of place when we have car meets, nice guy tho

I think its cool and neat but usually in forign country people who have cars that are very well modified are usually 30-50 years old.

"middle aged"

Never thought I was middle aged yet. More like just the beginning of all the real fun.

It wasn't my ITR. Mine hasn't been out of town since I got back from this weekend, after driving 350 miles in circles on this stretch of road.

Oh, and although I'm old enough to be a grandpa, I'm not a grandpa.

Black is faster because it's only a blur.

Old men in a Type R? What is this?

I believe I was next to this gentleman at a light on Rt. 1/Crystal City a couple years ago.
Looked over, nodded, and told the guy he had "a nice car" (summer time, windows down).

He replied, you too! hehe
Then we just rolled away with traffic on our separate ways ... Ed

He seems very happy I saw him Friday or Saturday I dont remember I was a little late posting it. I saw him on my way to Fallsgrove. The man had the biggest smile on his face as if here driving an exotic Ferrari. The dude had gray hair so if your out there you know who you are.
