It's a nice looking car at any rate.
Which is why I was saying it sounded like a bridge and nasty single rather than saying it was bridged and single. Regardless though, a 15 is horrible for an FD. It was the first one I actually saw run there, and it had to run such a slow time. There was a black one there once as well, but I missed it run. Supposedly hit low 12's when a friend of mine called me to let me know what it ran.

I can barely imagine running a 15 with completely botched start on my stock twins, though heavily modified otherwise. Let alone on a single. He must have had some major problems. That or he has no idea of how to drive his vehicle.

Just thought I'd let people know there is a car show in North Manchester Indiana. It's part of a yearly fair/ festval called funfest. Manchester is 20 mins North of Wabash or 30 mins south of Warsaw or 40 mins west of Fort Wayne. It will be held on Augest 11th -- starts at 2:00 pm on Main Street. I was thinking about how lame it will be with no rotarys so I decided I'd post it up here if anyone wanted to come. It's not a huge show, but it's not bad for a small town, it's a few blocks long. If anyone wants more info msg me. thx

Indy BASH!!! Aug. 18-20. Last year I saw 3 FD's (mine being one). We need more FCs and FBs!! Don't worry if it aint pretty. last year my FD had a **** *** paint job with no door handles on it and they still put it on the flyer that they send everyone in the mail. 50% of the Hondas there last year looked like they came staight out of the salvage yard!! If you are not going to enter your car it's $10 to get in or $15 day of.

Register your car Now on line as it's $10 more on the day AND THERE IS A HUGE LINE YOU WILL HAVE TO WAIT IN!!!!!!!

By the way, if you are entering your car it says it's $40 but that is actually for "2" tickets.

Keep on the forum as we will probably have a caravan heading south on saturday morning.

D.

So has anyone met up in town yet? I should have the FC on the road this weekend (just driveshaft, exhaust and plug wires to fabricate now); It won't be in mean shape, but should be tuned well enough to putt around in while I wait for my wideband.

I just sold my sentra, and bought an 88 gtu. I'm from Muncie, about a 1/2 mile down from the dragstrip. I've only been out once with my fc this year, and had some terrible wheel hop. Anyone planning on attending the dragway anymore this year?

So then you live out by me. I live about a half mile away from the dragstrip as well.

I'll be going to the drag strip on Friday night. So if you are going to be there, fritts, you won't be the only seven. I'll just be in an FB.
