Simma. My wife is getting more and more involved with the track. It's not even finished. But I think she will be VERY involved once things get closer to being done. But nothing is for sure. SO SIMMER.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm urethane suspension bushings are good, so are adjustable swaybar endlinks,....and Ebay O2 housings and ported manifolds.

I got's alot of installing and grinding to do.

I tried to email everyone back who inquired about the last track day. I apologize if everyone did not get the update from me. Once we get rolling on the Evolution, I don't see any reason why we would not hold EVO only Meets and Track Days as well. It would be fun to have local All Wheel Drive events too.....this is all down the road, but hopefully not to far down it

Mike, I will try to call you today.....I can't believe you could not get through. We added a few more phone lines to take care of that

Ben, that Prodrive ad with all the EVO's is in a Hyper Rev Magazine....I think its the latest EVO Hyper Rev. Next time you swing by, I'll show you. I had never seen a Prodrive ad like that until a few weeks ago. I need to stop looking at Subaru only material I guess

By the way this gif is really odd -->

Its an Evo thing Justin, you wouldn't understand (the gif)...

Anyway Rob, my father posted information A LOT while there were open spots... Same with the 2 Racerfactory events... Sorry you missed COBB's signup, but you should get on the one for the RF event at Miller's track in May.

Local AWD events would be awesome (and so would you guys working on Evos, which I have patiently been waiting for ever since, well... for a long time)

When are you going to let Eric work on Evos and S2000s? Both Jake and I have work that needs to be done.

ps I did post info on Cobb, Racerfactory and other events here early. You guys are just SLOW. Sign up for the Racefactory event on 13-14 May before it fills up! They're the best group we've run with; smaller groups but MORE actual lap time than any of the other groups we've run with.

Its true, and mine are all really easy routine things that I can't/dare to do and definitly don't want the dealer doing...

And the stock shifter is actually kinda difficult (mostly because the tranny is so notchy most of the time)

Buy some underhood shifter bushings from Kartboy, they will make a big difference. Heck, you might even be able to install them yourself

Well, I had sent Justin a return Email asking for info. on where to send my $50 down even before you posted on here. But from my understanding, the sign up sheet on SCCA was the first in line. So, oh well...... I'll just have to catch the next one.

Not sure....you need to call and ask Josh. I am pretty sure the EVO's would make it in our shop before a Honda though. Sorry. Might be time to upgrade

No chance in hell, However, I think I probably will buy thems and a short shifter very shortly.

Evo short shifters are really not an improvement over stock, i'd suggest driving a car with one before you buy one. Every evo owner that has driven my car with the B&M short shifter prefers their stock shifter.

I played with Ray's in his car, I LOVED it... Every Evo owner hasn't driven an S2000 with a teenie tiny throw for the first 2 years of their driving experience...

S2000s are real sports cars, rather than family sedans.
