yeah 255's were ordered last night.

i'm tired of letting silly, and for the most part arbitrary, autocross rules dictate my modding. i'm going to build the car i want regardless of whether or not it is class competitive.

I follow F1 it's been a crazy seaon. Funny I've been a honda fan forever and when they drop out and sell the team their chassis (though powered my Mercedes Mclaren now) is now winning! Unreal!

Where do you guys get your tires put on? I had a set put on my neon by Pepboys and they put a few nicks in it and left grease all over the place.

EDIT: Nvm duh, Mike at Baierl, don't know why I didn't get him to do the tires on the neon!

I had Mike at baierl Mitsubishi do mine and they were perfect! No scrathes on the rims or tons of gunk and even bagged up the old tires for me and put them in the car! Great service!!

Yeah, Mike is a really good guy, I can't say enough good things. He's helping me out with my whole blown transfercase deal, doing brakes, fixing other crap wrong with the car, also making room in his schedule to put a new clutch in my neon this week so I can get it on the track for the weekend. Finally, I get a local guy that knows his stuff and is honest.
Heres what I did the other day!

Yes he is!! He's helped out the majority of the local evo guys in one way or another!

That looks awesome! Is that CF vinyl overlay? Want to do my center consol?...lol

Nice job

BTW Some of you remember my friend howard who comes to the evo meets with me and takes pictures....well this weekend coming up he will officially have turned to the darkside (coming from the subaru camp) and be a new Evo X owner! I'll get him to post in here soon!

He wanted a new car and was between EvoX and Sti and well X>Sti...lol
I think it was more of the X is a lot better out of the box then the new sti.
Plus it's the red one at baierl and he got over 10k off of sticker so pretty decent
deal.

Justin now when you say Mike is the only one to touch your car besides you, does that mean I can't rub my junk on yours anymore? Whats up with that?
