The competition is definately a motivator, but if I am not sub 1:40 I won't be competitive in my class. The car is capable for sure. Running the pro course will have an effect on times too - I've heard everything from a few tenths to two seconds difference. If it's two seconds, I should be in the 1:36's or 1:37's.

When you look at the car in person it just makes you laugh! Although after some testing to get it out it looks a little better than when you guys saw it
When's the JDM 9 bumper coming in?

You and LilJapnBoy........argghhh.

JP , thanks for proving my point. The Evo is Trent's car and the other is something that is usually only seen in Florida or California. A definite rarity in Northeast Ohio.

There's just a major shortage of cool cars here.

c'mon give him credit, neither of us has a CF hood....not that i haven't thought about it once or twice.

besides what's the chance the three cars will be out at the same time....ours sit in a garage for 8 months out of the year....and are allergic to precipitation...

The Evo is Trent's Daily driver.

The Porsche is Jamie's new daily driver. There are 2 separate "spotted" posts about his whip cruising the east side.



I agree-there may not be a ton of exotics in one large clump unless your at some Autobahn extreme car shop, but the abundance of 10 and 9 second street cars that are our on any given night when called upon is obscured.

I suppose cars like these may not be "cool" in everyone's book. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

I suppose that it's all relative to what you are used to and where you are from.

We can agree to disagree.
