You and Tyson will get along fine...

Some of the rest of us think hitting cones sometimes at > 100MPH is the same as dusting your car and snow/rain = free wash.

Hitting a cone over 100mph tends to remove the bumper along with the dust. Ask my bumper and that cone at Hawthorne if you don't believe me.

Like I said, it dusted your bumper.

Mike and Matt just have a nice dent to show for their dusting. I don't think their bumpers came off. I have a dent and it knocked the already loose fender liner into the tire which then ripped it off quite nicely.

My car hasn't been washed in 6 years, but then again it hasn't moved in 6 years either.

Hey Robby! Thought you'd be a member here! Hows the Evo sale going?

I haven't done any autoX, but I used to drift my 240sx and hitting a cone at 70mph sideways has the same effect

Yes I do and here they are!






It was a 96 w/ SR20DET swap, rev hard FMIC and ghetto piping (was supposed to have a Greddy, but got screwed over by the shop that did the swap), Greddy DP, gutted cat, RSR GT-II exhaust, Greddy profec-b spec II boost controller, JIC FLT-A2, JIC rear upper control arms, suspension tech front and rear sway bars, upgraded bushings in the front. I think thats it. It made 241RWHP at 14psi and 225 at 10psi (daily). Besides being my daily driver it was driven by a Formula 1/D1GP seated driver by the name of Tony Schultz as a practice car and thats who I was taught by (Im still not that good. Just one event lol). I really want to build another one, but wouldn't sell the Evo for it lol.

On another note it was great meeting everyone tonight and look forward to coming to other meets! I'll try to be there every week, but it just depends on how much school work I've got.
