7 Action at DUB Carshow NC

My camera died, and I didnt get many good shots(many blurry trying to take the picture before camera shut off)....but there was a green 7 there its probably pretty famous but I've never seen it, he won a bunch of awards. He had rays rims, single turbo, subs, rice bodykit etc etc...The first one is by far the best picture...of um.....the car..



IMO the 7 sucked but was cool to see, if the show is comming to somewhere by you id recommend it, it was alot more fun than I thought it would be. The best part though was all the "gangstas" on their 24s leaving the show, they were out sunroofs tryin to burnin rubber, running next to there car with nobody drivin it...good stuff.

Yes, this looks like Jay's car. You can tell by the audio equipment. I don't see how this guy wins shows. The car is too busy, too much **** on it. The car looked best when he first came on the scene, black with C-West body kit (minus the wheels that were on it).

There's a lot of things I can let slide, even though it's not to my taste. But to destroy the interior of the FD like that w/ those fiberglass panels... Dear God. The FD's got the sexiest interior EVER, of ANY car IMO. WHY would you do that?!

yeah, this is jay laub's car. it had his name on it under the spoiler if i remember correctly and yeah it did used to be orange. way too much **** goin on with this car. just got some project mu brakes tho, those were nice. i saw it a month or so ago in atlanta at formula d and it didnt have them then so i guess they're new. i hate this car personally but the performance upgrades are nice. just the car itself is trash. what a waste

I don't think the fiberglass panels were on his car. If you look closer at some of the pics you can see he still has the same interior with suede on the panels and maybe carbon fiber on the usually plastic parts. Looks kinda nice in my opinion. That fiberglass **** on the other hand is whack as **** .

Holycow, that interior looks like the inside of some driving video game machine. Pretty radical and original, not something I'd drive but i'm noticing that anything made for show is going to look something like this nowadays.

You're right about the interior. Good eye And green suede?? I'll pass... I personally HATE CF body panels, as I also hate 50 LCDs and 30 speakers. The car's not a friggin videogame

rx7what, I'm glad to see you're a pro at MS Paint

I'm curious why he's got some low end subs after all that $$ in the car? At least rock a w6 or w7...

Oh and rx7what, that's some badass spelling you got there too
