Well, I've gotta go up to Glennwood springs on Saturday to pick up Michael's winter tires/wheels package, but hell, I've got a friend who I want to travel with who works in the morning... maybe... so I'm tentative for cars and coffee.

Civics are popular because everyone's mom has one, so young kids end up driving them and street racing. They aren't doing too well when it comes to road racing these days... Honda Challenge pretty much fell apart and isn't what it used to be. Most people who buy Civics for "racing" these days are just interested in street ricing, or maybe the 24 Hours of LeMons. The 7 years that I owned an Integra was pretty much spent avoiding all the typical Honda morons. Maybe Honda's new motorsports program will turn things back around for their involvement in real racing, but it'll take some time.


Personally i'd like to see both types of cars.
Yeah, variety is what makes car meets interesting.

LOL. I did a color change from champignon to champagne on the seats and am planning on posting a write-up sometime soon. They turned out great but I gotta say, between prep, conditioning, dying and then conditioning them again I've rubbed these dang things more in the last week than I have my wife in a month...and that just isn't right

So which one of you Denver guys was cruising I-70 East last night at 10:30 with me?

It was a bit of a strange day. Followed a gold 951 down Gun Club in the morning and ended up next to a 944 on I-70 on the way home. (only 2 cars on the road). A little random considering the age and relative rarity of the cars.

That sucks.

The second day I had my 944 I took my wife to a movie in it. Some pinhead smashed into it while we were inside. It was my first insurance claim ever.
