Just curious if any Nocal guys are going to Extreme Autofest on July 27th.
Anyone going to HIN in LA on August 30th?
I'm hoping to go to these two shows...I'm sure I'll hit up EA since it's up here, but I'm not sure about HIN. I'd like to though. I haven't been to a SoCal show since Oct '01:frown:

Yeah, I'm going to the show I'm IN this saturday! :p haha, j/k Mike, you already knew about that. :D
HIN LA I'm not feeling this year, not to mention I'm going to the D1 Grand Prix challenge at Irwindale speedway anyways the very next day, so my wallet is only gonna let me part with one event. Also I already have VIP tix for the D1 event as well. HIN is coo and all, but I felt SO jipped at last years, and that was my first one ever, haha! Just wasn't as much there as I was expecting... I'll have to hit up HIN Del Mar next year for sure! Any of those shows you go to, tell Burgs I say wassup! :bigthumb: :cwm27:

TB...don't eat too much Nate...be a stinky ride all the way up to Yosemite:biggrin:
Matt-hey that's cool you're going to that D1...that's the drifte event?? HIN...you know it's same as a lot of these shows...IREV is HIN but with the lights on...maybe a little different...Import Motion which started this year was basically the same as IREV...and on and on and on...But I loooooove shows so ya know how that goes...
Hey I'll have to talk to Mr Burgs's PR guy. I don't think I'm important enough for him to talk to:biggrin: Naw, but that's crazy...he's like the next LJ I guess. Oh shit...this may be OLLLLLD, but I saw pics of LJ's new car on superhonda...it's typical LJ fasion, but it's pretty sick.
Well hopefully when I start showing, I'll go to all the shows/races. I mean might as well get as much exposure as possible right?

Man, well once you get to more shows let me know, and I'll be your groupie, haha! Naw, but I WILL go and check your ride out for sure, and like stand around and whisper subliminal messages to the judges ears as to why YOU should win, hehe! naw! :D I'll represent you though on the real! Show the love for your car. Man, I haven't seen LJ's newest car, I live under a damn rock I guess. :(
But yeah, D1 is the worlds best drifting thing. This is actually the US debut of D1 in America, how crazym huh? Can't fake the funk on some drifting JDM spunk! :bigthumb:
haha, oh yeah. I don't think Burgs would remember me from word of mouth, but I KNOW he'd know me if seen in person. I was the annoying guy that came into the shop all the time pricing ish out, talking to him about his Civic, and driving a silver coupe myself. heh

Never. I'm gonna keep it fairly stock, otherwise I'll throw my classing for auto-X. I might swap to an EX motor down the line, but swapping to B16 or anything like that will put me in a prepared class which will have me running against RX7's and Z06 Vettes. I gotta keep it OG in STS class. Plus it's a hell lot easier to drive auto since you need 2 hands on the wheel at pretty much most times. ;) I'l probably get a 3k stall Level10 T/C for the tranny just to allow for some better gear hold times and such, but that's about it. Remember autoX is suspension and brake oriented, all else is rather irrelivant. :cool: I just need some increased low end pickup, but a Civic is gonna bog in that department whether manual or auto. That's something you gotta change with the motor itself.

Gear Ratios have a huge part to do with low end also. Auto or Manual. The Auto trannies on honda's have a shitty gear ratio. Even if you swap a manual will they change your class?

Unfortunetly, probably so. The car has to remain with one single trim drivetrain, can't mix and match EX to DX stuff, although tranny might be exemp as it's the same manual used whether EX or DX. But an example of how weird the rules are, if I want to run an after market header and change my exhaust to EX format, or do a mini-me VTEC swap, or swap out my intake manifold for an EX one, it'll throw me into prepared class, but to STAY in STS class, I'd have to swap out my ENTIRE motor for an EX one to keep all the drivetrain stock as it comes from the factory.
