Went to visit dj55b yesterday in London Ontario
 

I have been stuck in Sarnia Canada all week on business. Yesterday I had some free time so I went to visit Sam (dj55b) in London.

Really had a good time visiting with him. He has a first gen with street port and mega squirt fuel injection. His car is really neat and we had a blast cruising all over London!! Thanks Sam!

Anyhow wow I am impressed with how smooth and responsive the engine is with the megasquirt FI. That car really hauls ass when you want it to and has incredible street manners when you need it to!

I was impressed how he can drive 25 mph...yes 25 mph in 5th gear and the engine does not sputter, buck back or anything.. It seems perfectly happy to run smoothly this slow!

He has the full RE speed suspension package on his car. It handles very nicely! He was even gracious enough to let me drive his car!! Very nice!

Anyhow... stuck in Sarnia for a while...

Saw his car at Zoom Fest a year back... Beauty in person!

Sam's an awesome guy. What's funny is that I've "met" his car more times than I've met him in person. it was over at RPM Motorsports a few times when I was there and I got to see it but not him!

If you want to see a really awesome build, search up his threads. Everything from when he got the shell to building his own muffler is in there somewhere and it's all interesting to read.

His car spent a couple of days in my driveway when he came over for a race. Very nice. I think he raised the property value just by parking it there. :)

Sounds like you guys had fun, I'm jealous! lol

I wanted to come visit you Kentetsu... I think you are about 3 hours from Sarnia.. Just afraid I am running out of time. I will be back up here from time to time. They are a big customer of mine.

any cool pics of your trip?

yeah sam seems like a nice guy, and his car is pretty neat too

Next time you'll have to do that, especially if it's a race weekend (you can race my car) :)

There is a good race this Saturday, but since my car is still in pieces from that damned drunk, it's not the best of times. Fortunately, forum member Jeffy is letting me drive his fb for this race...

London is ~2 hours east from where I'm at outside Ann Arbor, and GR is ~2 hours west of me. You *may* be able to cut .5 hours from your drive by going across the northern bridge (not @ Windsor), but you'll loose that much (or more) in the crossing.

Besides that, Sam is an awesome guy, and his FB is absolute sex. Good to hear that you guys got to hang out.

You guys are prolly gonna get started early at that autocross tomorrow. If my startup gets postponed again.... hell I will drive down in my rent car and race it!!!

I will know in a bit... are you still gonna go Kentetsu?

I am free tomorrow... Kentetsu... what is your phone number?? I will come over and race the rent car...

Nissan Versa... should be in H- stock???

Hey...just talked to Curt Rosenstengel... cool dude!! Even though this event is full.... he is gonna let me race!!

See ya tomorrow in the Nissan Versa!!!

Yes! Can't wait to meet you. We will let you race no matter when you get there, or what you are driving. We're not very picky on who we let in (just ask the Canadians) :)

wow, title is misleading. sounds like it is filled with fagness LOLLLLLL

Went to Muskegon today to race with Kentetsu and Jeff... What a BLAST!!!

I really enjoyed visiting with the Michigan autocross crowd and really enjoyed the event!

I raced my Nissan Versa rent car in H-stock and ended up in 5th place out of 8 cars!

Cant wait to come race with these guys again!

Again...thanks to all!!

Hey now!!! That's how I roll!!!!

^^^ lollll

I'll miss you 80's Old School! I'll miss you!.... Call me!.....

lmao

Seriously though, had a great time. I think Jeff and I got 1st & 2nd in his fb in STS. Our competition was 8 Miatas. :) I'll post pics and vids later...

Lol didn't realize you made a thread about this ... Glad you had fun here! ... Sorry it didn't have full power at the time since I had just changed the fuel pressure regulator and didn't fully tune things properly, but oh well it was still a blast. You're welcome to stop by anytime you'd like! That goes to anyone really ... well except for Wacky :P
