LC3, it was dark out, but man your car looked good ...

XFactor, not in the club yet. I got my car a month ago and it's been in my garage getting maintenence work done since then. I'm hoping to be done with it all pretty soon and then I'll join up. Maybe I'll hit up the August meeting.

Red FD Spotted in La.

SO I was comming home from after school and I spotted a red third gen comming from the Des Allemands/Houma area. I saw it at the light in Paradis by Highway 306. It looked mighty clean. Whoever it was might have seen me in a white car pointing going oooo a third gen. But anyways....whoever it was, it sure looked like they just cleaned it, pr maybe it's been that long since I have seen a 3rd gen. lol

Did it have a mesh looking rim with no front lip? If so Marshall and I saw it at the autox meet sunday. We couldn't find the guy who owned it to talk to him, but it looked like it needed some tlc.

O BTW when I say tlc I just mean a front lip, a wax and the rims refinished. Other then that it is in nice shape.

Don't want to upset anyone. The dam edit putton timed out on me.

I couldn't really see the wheels or the front lip, but the car looked really clean from what I saw.

as for the red fd originally posted about i have also seen it at a gas station while i was working in NO one day. If it is stock it is a girl that drives it looks to be around 25 or sumthin not the type to be hopping around on forums or tuning it. Thats the only red one i know of other than mine and edwards.

Well if I would have been able to see it while it was sitting still, I am sure I would be able to tell you if it was either one of those. We were moving and so were they. I wish I was on my bike so I could have u-turned and caught up with them.

O yeah forgot it was rainging and nasty that day. Maybe that is why it just looked like it needed a little bath. I swore the red one at autox didn't have a lip, but them I was looking for the owner so much so I could talk to him that I guess I forgot to keep details of your ride man. Sorry. I didn't mean to offend if that is what I did.

Hope to see ya around,

I can account for another 93 R1 VR running around Metairie, in the vicinity of severn/west metairie. Stock rims though. I occasionally see another VR in the area, but never when i was driving mine.

Silver FD spotted in Mckinney yesterday; 11/1/06

It was around 3:30pm I was coming southbound on mcdonald st. in downtown mckinney towards the county courthouse, when in the oncoming traffic a silver fd was in the turn lane to turn west bound down Virginia. It was silver, with polished rims, knightsport carbon fiber hood, r1 rear spoiler, what looked like a 99' spec front lip, and a nice FMIC that looked just like the one I had which was a Greddy one. I was passing whoever it was in a dark grey 02' honda civic ex. I do remember we both stared at each other as I passed. Who ever it was, super clean! makes me miss my old one soooo bad. Next time you're in Mckinney stop at the courthouse, we'll talk, and let me see the FD and i'm sure you wouldn't be hassled by any local sheriff deputies
