oh yeah cops are bad here!!! there no real room to go fast like you want to with these cars. and the stupid *** laws they have on speeding! like excessive speeding(81+) on paper is worse then a dui wtf?

thats what i got hit for! 91 in a 60 is somehow worse then a dui?

i have community service and lost my Liscens for 30 days!
then i got my DL back and my car broke a month later!

ok im done lol

but yeah cops and laws are bad here lol

All we need is 8 people to get together and make a deposit to Vengeance racing and Mike will book his trip out here...I think he's hoping to get 8 people for a Summer trip out here again. They have come out the last 2 years in a row already. I know of a few that need to get their cars done, and a few that need theirs tweaked a little more. Last time they came out $475 got you a street and dyno tune, plus whatever got worked out with the dyno shop for dyno time, about $75 per hour last time iirc.

wow..looks damn similar in alot of ways but i honestly cant ID it as my old '91 Third Gen. I think its just a very similar one.

On another note. I got the Firehawk in storage. Im out in korea now living it up. Im looking forward to coming out there. I havent done my cam and headers yet. I plan on that when i get out there.

Do Hawaii have yearly inspections? What do they check? Can military run out of state plates? I have orders to report in August. Thanks!

I would love to try and organize something with the local airport and see if we couldnt get a runway for rent. I'm sure it would be alot of money and we would need alot of people interested etc..

So it looks like the dragstrip is going to work out huh?
