You were defintely pushin that civic to the limits at times, that was awsome.

The rex is running good, it had some cooling issues the last few times out at shannonville but i think me and my cousin got it sorted out.

Well hopefully youve got the cooling situation under control…  
I put some goodies in the civic now so its gone from 86hp at the wheels to 104 hp at the wheels…the wing added 3 hp 🙂

Did you get the Hoosiers to fit?

Are you guys ready for Dunnville?

**Okay, I have HAD a lot of people asking if you need a helmet. I’d like to say yes mainly because safety is really important. Like, if you don’t wanna put on a helmet when you’re driving in your car by yourself that’s fine. However, if you have a passenger and something happens, i.e you crash heads without a helmet…**

Also, If anyone wants to go for a ride in someone elses car, you should wear a helmet in case anything were to happen to you. I wouldn’t want the person who took you for a spin to get sued because something happened to you during the ride.

^^^ Ya Fobwall knows first hand when I had to shut him down for a ridealong with no helmet.

Wearing no helmet is a bad idea…there are open-facers at CT that cost $89.

Its not lookin good for the slicks, im running the incorrect offset wheels which is casuing it to rub against the front struts. I tried 5mm spacers but that still didnt give me enough clearance. I might get some hub adapters and extra long wheel studs, hopefully i can find the parts intime!

Edit:I dont understand the concept of going to a race track without a helmet, i see guys in verts with no helmets and theyre actually pushing the car! thats crazy mang!

Hey, hopefully you can buy a set in time or borrow some spacers from someone. If you don’t have slicks for that day, what tires will you end up using?

Hey Jon, I hope you don’t plan on smoking weed at the track.

Especially since most of us are trying to keep off the grass.
