Like like I said what's so special about scoobies ,so they know how to keep their $hit togheter?I can see those guys every week.A whole group.Mitsu guys?It's like beging somebody to make him/herself happy.We had all this time (winter) to make sure that we have a nice meeting when it's starts getting warmer.And what happened?Most of us finds out about getting togheter in the last minute.Why?
Oh,BTW,I'm talking about WI area.2 days ago I passed by a group of at least 8 subaru's.What's up with that?

All the time....

Everytime I see a fellow driver in an Evo I acknowledge them

~If we're going in opposite directions I'll flick the headlights on and off a few times and throw up the deuces

~If we're going in the same direction I'll catch up / slow down, get the window(s) down and throw up the deuces with a smile.

There aren't too many of us anywhere I go so whenever I see another Evo owner, I'm all about the comraderie. Hell if I get a chance I'll pick their brain for knowledge on local shops and such. No point in being a dick-bat to a person who owns a great machinery just like you. Like my buddy always said "There's wrong like crime, then there's totally wrong like DSM on DSM crime."

I try to run them off the road, so there's less evos on the road. lol
i'm kidding, unless it's a honda doing the flyby..

seriously though ; I try to acknowledge every evo I've ever seen with a wave or high beam flash, etc..
Most of em do it back, some don't...

Other than the 4 or 5 guys that are from here, I've only seen a few on the road that I didn't know..

Some suby ppl do, but not so much..

I acknowledge every evo that comes near me. Most the guys return a thumbs up or a wave, only 1 gave me the "death stare". As for the subies, I rarely acknowledge them, and most of the time it's because they initiate it. It's kinda nice. Like having friends you haven't met yet!

I throw up the deuce to every evo I see. I'm anti subie, so unless they throw the deuce first, I ignore them! Idiots in riced out civics, scions, toyotas, etc, who throw the deuce (they are few and far between) get my look of total disappointment

Man,

The hate of honda's is crazy.... I do realize that a bunch of honda civic owners are f$%#'s but like someone else posted.... they are more reliable than evo's are that is for sure. Why would you say that EVERY evo owner is hardcore, are you kidding me..... look at some of the things evo owners do to there cars.

I think we just need to acknowledge nice cars whatever they are, my best friend has a very nice honda civic with a 35R turbo, skunk2 everything.... He has walked many many cars. So because he has a nice car that is very nicely done, he is your typical honda owner?

I bought a project crx with a B16 motor in it and we are going to build up the motor, axles, suspension and going to use a 50 trim turbo on it, is that going to make me a dumb honda owner?

All evo owners are not very nice either, it my area, you are lucky to get a waive. Every time there was one next to me, all they want to do is race

Just remember that it does not take much to make a honda go fast. if you do a build on a evo you are easily looking at $25,000 to $35,000!!!

The ole high beam flash for me... most acknowlege back, if not oh well I don't get butt hurt. Believe it or not I am not a big talker about my car, so when people ask I am not trying to be rude just don't like talking about my car too much...
