TSX Lap car in Formula 1 with RonJon 18" wheels!

Directly from one of our Acura Dealers:

Hi, Rondy!
Maxime Beaucage from Precision Acura, Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada.
We install some RJ wheels (Legend liquid graphite) on the all-new TSX 2009 and we will bring the car to the Formula 1 event in Montreal, the Grand Prix du Canada on the 6 to the 8 june. This TSX will make a lap around the F1 circuit in front of the crowd and broadcasters. With this e-mail I attached some picture of the TSX with your wheels… We put some RJ publicity on the car. The Grand Prix du Canada is a very big event in Canada, thousands of people will see the car at the Grand Prix, millions of people will see it around Canada and around the world too.

Have a nice day,


Max


Nuts, really. I mean, I feel like we won the lotto with this one, finally some decals actually come in useful!

I'm digging the option front bumper cover, maybe the rear but definatly not the side skirts. I'm glad they replaced the "bricks" with hexes on the lower grill.

I'm actually liking the Legends on the first gen much more. But they still look far better than stock.

I know its an advertising car but talk about sticker overkill.

yeah, its done. Just waiting for the magazine to hit news stand. I'm so stoked, all that leg work and promotional effort is finally paying off a little. I saw the pics, they look awesome.

eidt, if you are talking about the TSX in the magazine, they shot down everything I presented to them. I'm just hopeing the right TSX comes by. I'm not even sure which one that is, because they shoot downj cars that are overdone, and cars that are under modded.

Congrats on the Grand Prix feature Ron, that's hot.

What's this about Traction, though? Any examples of cars they've seen so far? Is this local to us here in the tri-state area?
