I've seen some modded TL's and RSXs here in wichita, but it seems like none of them are connected into Acurazine.

It would be really cool to have a honda/import car club in wichita. There's none that I know of or could find.
After the large turnout at Import Face Off 3 months ago, I'm sure there's enough possible support for it.

Yea it's hard to come by an import group in Wichita, they've GOT to exist. I know lots of the guys with s2k's/350z's/evo's, but no ones really organized into a specific club.

I'm looking into the possibly of organizing a Honda/Acura Club here in Wichita.
I'm still fairly new to Wichita but I know two people that would share an intrest in helping set this up.

As far as accreditation, I don't know how that would work since none of the Wichita car clubs are "Import" in any way. I don't know who would sanction and Import car club.

I'm meeting with someone I know next week to discuss setting this up and getting the ball in motion.
If this is something that might possibly interest you, and you would like to offer any help or input please don't hesitate to shoot me an e-mail.. at dime_n_stallion at yahoo dot com.

I'd be interested for sure, but I'm clueless on what's involved in being officially recognized.

No BS, but I believe you are facing a rather difficult task here. Trying to organize a car meet/club not on 1 specific car community is gonna be next to impossible. First thing I would do is put a "listing" in your local paper (I know in KC we have a special spot for car clubs) and see where that gets you. Second thing you could do is get some business cards or flyers and stick them on cars around town that you think might be interested in a gathering, i.e. modified imports and such.

I wish you the best of luck and you are for sure welcome in KC for our little "meets". Its hard for me to get the knuckleheads around here on this site to meet up, let alone people that I dont know.

If it were possible I'd like to keep it in the TL zone. I don't think that is possible so I would like to expand it under the honda brand, not so much ALL imports.
But yes I see what your're saying.

Love the idea. Maybe we can organize something around IFO in March?

Me and Ky and a member from our car club are going to be hitting up Twin Peaks this Sunday (Feb 3rd). If you want bring the Acuras, the more the merrier

Twin Peaks @ 21st & Rock

I know Ky loves twin peaks, I've seen him literally burn rubber across lanes of traffic trying to get there lol.

But in the past few months I've come to know a few of the girls who work there, so it's polite to stop in and say hi every once n awhile.
