Also if you guys look at one of the photos of my TL in the ones that i posted you will find that something is missing and is now resting in peace somewhere. This particular item is discontinued and will be hard to replace im sure.

Honda Tuning pages...nothing shows up for me . Then again, the last set of pics from VIR don't show, either...here or the coverage thread.

I saw your missing part in your VIR coverage thread...sucks you can't replace it. Any chance of finding a used one on eBay?

Na, too many of the people I was planning on going with backed out. It's ok though, saved me a good amount of money to put towards the FC.

lol, the May race the traffic wasn't that bad. Charlotte seems to have their act together when it comes to event traffic.

Hey Eric, whats the plan with Road Atlanta? When are you heading down, how long, and how much is everything costing? I'd love to take the trip down. I might pick up Tyler too, but only if he's willing to give up his marathon fap sessions for the weekend

Probably heading down thursday at some point. Camping thursday, friday and probably saturday night. Tickets are 75 i think, and camping might be more if i remember straight. I should check out their website.

You guys should do it!

Just depends on how many days you are there for.

Camping costs the same as VIR... $50 and doesn't matter how many days.

Assuming since there have been no updates that tonight is a no-go. If it's still on Jason, call me (won't be on AZ again until late tonight).

Yeah tonight is out. I may try and schedule something for tomorrow night though instead since maybe it will be easier for people to meet after work plus I will be able to get there quicker since I won't have work.

FAIL!!! Wheels are a size to big. They look like 20s. They should be 19s so they are body proprietorial. Also Markus Schulz has some amazing music.

lol that's pretty much what i did with the TL. Ordered them before i got the car.

What i've always wanted to do is buy a bunch of parts for a certain car and THEN go get the actual car and throw them all on at once. I just think that would be really cool haha.
