Robert, a few of my friends tried Pho Xe Laupot, and they thought that Pho 75 was superior. I'll still check it out, but I thought that I would share their opinion.
I have friend at work that tried to point me to the Pho 75 saying it's the best, but he's Thai what does he know.

Ugly or not? I can't decide if I like this color combo. There's something mildly appealing about it.

I've always admired that car for its individuality.

Robert, I've always entertained the idea of selling the wheels regardless. Got a price I couldnt refuse!

I have always liked that car, not many cars can pull it off but that just looks super clean

congrats on selling the rimz, yo!

I feel the same way about the autoshow. Haven't been there is probably 8 years. Last time I went it seemed like it was just a bunch of little snot nosed kids jumping around in all the cars like it was a jungle gym and the partents obviously didn't give a crap cause it wasn't their car the kids were damaging. From what I remember the last year I went was the frist year they had to remove from the car anything and everything that wasn't bolted down otherwise it would be stolen. so basically you got to walk around and look at cars filled with kids jumping all over the interiors with everything removed.

Josh, that car looks good, you never see red on red.

Car show is always a mixed bag. The highlight is going to RTM afterwards for lunch. Did you guys go?


Marc, looking at the racing calender last night (my racing wish list for the season), it is going to be one crazy busy spring, summer and fall. Literally an event every other weekend that I would want/wish to attend.

For me the best part was always the porsche posters ... do they still give them out?

My second favorite thing was disconnecting the throttle cables on all the mustangs. Think i used to try something to the benz's, forget what though.

I've only been twice, even though I was a kid at the time, I knew the show was more to help dealers make sales rather than provide entertainment for enthusiasts and gear heads. Though seeing a viper and a diablo in real life is pretty exciting the first time.

No people are very respectful when you leave your hood open and walk away at a car show. Im giving some thought to redoing my wheels a new color. Gold and gunmetal are my favs but theyve been done to death. Red would be unique but Im not so sure yet.

especially teenagers.

with a red car, your pretty limited on color choices. Its either got to be something metallic (gold, silver, gunmetal) or a base color (white, black...). A dark blue could work.

I vote White! I would be shocking, but not enough to make me vandalize your car at a car show.

I've always been a fan of red & gunmetal and/or bronze.

Kenny, I forgot all about those Porsche posters. I used to get them too.

Pete, the sick part is not everyone has their schedules posted yet, so its only going to get worse!!! Looks like its going to be a good year though.

I'm probably going to be doing more HPDE's this year and not so many autox's. Email me a list of the events you're thinking of making and maybe we can coordinate our schedules.

Btw, josh, do you know someone that does good powder coat work? I wouldn't mind trying some fancy colors with the kosei's.

Maybe orange? Its my favorite color, but maybe a little played out on the evo?
