Ken Black R on here had EF hatch with ITR 5 lug, ATS FD, ITBs, Toda cams, Hytech header, i mean he had this shit back 10 years ago. He street raced a lot just not with the riff raf ricers.
JohnZM, Jensons 150shot nitrous GSR, my GSR CRX, my 2,0l, Bens TSX turbo, Chunkys motors, theres been TONS of cars that were on par or ahead of the rest of the country. The only difference is they had someone pushing and marketing it. No one does that now.
Personally, the street racing scene is so secretive its almost to its detriment. The thing you guys accuse me of being (a post whore) is what made me popular, and made certain aspects of the scene popular, and drew customers to the shops i worked for.
Its going to take someone doing something SIMILAR to what i did. Its going to take someone post whoring, marketing, pushing ideas, doing things differently, and getting people to buy into it. The only people i see really able to do that is Midnight, but no offense they dont seem interested in posting anything on here. The potential is HUGE, you realize theres NO HUGE Honda shops in atlanta anymore? Im surprised someone hasnt risen up and taken over .
