Yeah, I figured the shaka would get noticed in this thread. Being from CA allows me to do it at least once and a while, right?

I've love to see some pics of it! I respect the X, but I can't get over the rawness of the CT9A platform!

I do miss that about the IX. If I pick up a second "beater" to do dirt racing with, it'll probably be a IX. I remember the night I drove it home...the next day my neck was sore from getting thrown back into the seat every time I hit boost.

Man, I really miss that car.

Edit: Those pictures of the IX were taken right after I bought the car. I took it up Rampart Range road, and then around Pike's Peak (it wasn't paved back then). That thing saw just as much dirt as my Jeep did.

Nice cars! Always good to see an evo being driven as it was made to be driven. Hard parking isn't my thing.

Love the plate, too.

Thanks! I'll be so sad when I lose it and switch to Hawaii plates in July. I literally giggled for 10 minutes when they came in the mail.

I hear you on the hard parking thing. There's some people who won't even drive their evos in the rain!

I've always been pretty hard on my cars, and the IX was probably some of the most fun I've ever had behind the wheel. I did not enjoy the 2008 X as much, because I never got around to modding it. My current car (the red one) was in the process of being turned into a track beast when I left Texas. Now I don't know what I'm going to do with it.

I have to be in the Salt Lake area around 9:30, so I could stop by for a bit. If that's okay with Rob, lol
