i can understand it for actual SHOWS, not hyped up meets like all the hellaflush and stanceworks stuff is. if you have to pay to register and there is judging and whatnot, and the general public has to pay to attend... then im all for pre screening because the public has to get their money's worth but for all these fancy meets, which is all they are really... its not cool, unless of course space is VERY limited but in this case it wasnt.

Yeah, that's exactly what I mean. It's really stupid to exclude people for a meet. A show, on the other hand, can rightfully exclude applicants.

Yeah, it's usually the dimwits that lack intelligence that do this sort of thing. They really shouldn't consider themselves better than others simply because they spend more money into a vehicle that doesn't really need it.

I'm in the process of getting my car tuned at BRG Racing. I'll give you a thumbs up or down once I see what kind of job they did.

Two weeks ago I moved to Santa Cruz from Austin, TX. Last night I let my girl drive my 6speed CL and I think she broke an Axel. Anyone know of a GOOD mechanic in this area?

I think we all go to the same shop. Tech 3 Performance in San Jose. They do good work and they work on a lot of Acuras/Hondas.

This is what we get with stupid people (who don't know how to drive their cars) and fast cars. I have no sympathy for idiots, especially ones that kill innocent people.
