There are a few guys from Philly SCCA going to Island Dragway Friday night, from what they tell me you get a crap load of runs there. IF my car is done, big if - I am going to finally see what I can run in the quarter. I am supposed to race Simmons all wheel drive Civic turbo monster. It should be a good time, even though I run the risk of loosing to a Honda, no shame though when it comes to this car.

I'm glad you and simmons are taking your beasts to the track! Island is a pretty sh!tty track though, hope the fixed the dip in the center.

my prediction is that it will come down to the launch... but I think you'll take him, just watch out for the wheel hop!!!

I dotn know Marc, that Civic is pretty quick, and beats out the Evo in weight.

and to top it off my 30gal compressor just **** the bed...
Remember the accident...

Thanks for the help today btw, couldn't have done it without you man. *wipes tear*

My CBRD fit fine with no cutting, that is strange yours is not. I wonder if he changed the design, I admit there is not a hairs worth of room between IC and undertray, let alone the front bumper. Regardless, I didn't have to cut a thing, per BSP rules. Chad (when you can get him on the phone) will totally work it out, he always had good customer service when I dealt with him. I am sure you already contacted him, sucks you are having problems.
I do agree with Mike. He'll do what he car to make it right...

My only experience with cbrd was a good one. Racing sims, free t shirt and a quality product at a quality price. I will probably be buying his fmic soon.

what does the accident have to do with anything? everything is straight if thats what you're implying. its not fitting because the bottom of the intercooler is interfering with the undertray.

glad that worked out for you with the brakes. when it comes to working on cars I've learned that if something isn't coming off, or going on correctly, there is usually a reason why. its almost always never a good idea to 'force' it.

i am really good friends with chad and he does stand by his product. these products are made by hand not like Chus cousins using machines and just mass producing knockoff parts so mistakes do happen.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say its not gonna be done... Hopefully I'll be wrong.
