I have finally truly fully recognized the true gratification of modifying my Evo to the furthest of extent. When I placed my order today for my Shifter Bushings and Engine Motor Mounts.

Up and to this point it just never really gave me that feeling of accomplishment. But now I stand fullfilled with my project and feel as if it is time to "RAP IT UP B"!!!!!!!

congratulations dan.

you've finally become a real gearhead and got yourself some bushings.

Time Trial

Hey guys and gals, I've finally had a moment to get the registration open for the Wilson circuit time trial event. I hope to see many of you out there fighting for the cup! . I'm going to try and promote a suby vs Mitsu challange also.

Yes it is Saturday and no working required! If your a SCCA member it's $100 and $115 for non members. That extra $ 15 can be put a yearly membership. Which is a good club to be a member of.
