    Default In all the hype of this weekend...lest we not forget...

    Yeah, yeah, it's pretty much a praise to the big names that came out to make this weekend of EF's possible.

    BigDare - First and foremost. You set up the dates (keeping gay-pride in mind, LoL) You set up the locations. You got the people. You got the hook-ups. Thanks for keepin' it real and organizing one HELL of a weekend for us! I know I'm looking forward to the next one. (Keepin' it real...is that right? LoL)

    Uproot - Our professional photographer, and fellow EF driver. Outstanding photography that you've provided for everyone. Great organizing at the varsity (despite the impatient people...LoL) Thanks for comin' out...EF or not.

    MainStream - I think I got the right username. Either way...Charles at MSPi. Thanks for throwing us up on the Dyno, and running our cars, and letting us hang out for a minute. Great hosting.

    These three gentleman deserve the praise for the good time ya'll had this weekend, and the results that came of it. Positive reps to the three are neccessary, I feel, and let's hope to encourage them to help us out the next time we have another meet.

    Finally, thanks to EVERYONE who came out to represent. It was great meeting several new faces, and seeing some old, and more than anything...learning some faces behind the screen names. We got some great photos, made new friends, found out that some of us live closer to each other than we thought...but more than anything, we supported each other and built each other's confidence for driving Honda's little bastard child. To anyone who didn't come out...you missed one HELL of a fucking good time!

    I can't wait for the next meet to see how everyone's cars have progressed. Hope to see ya'll, then!

    We'll have more set up, I'm sure. Just didn't know if I could find a crew as good to run with as the Vortex. I've been proven wrong. It's good to know there's responsible and intelligent driver's out there...

    Glad you came out, and glad we could make it worth your while. When it's a two-day event...you KNOW it's worth it! LoL Well...at least...when the Squad does it...

    lol, well me and uproot have a little road thats curvy like the mountains, but it's only about half a mile to a mile long. when i get bored i like to take my car out over there and drive my car.

    The mountains are like this local road x100. Completely new experience for me and i loved every second of it.

    Haha, yeah, I've got a little "test run" road here, too. When courtney ran it with me, she was like "OMG, that's awesome". I was like "Actually...it's kinda boring. I'll take you to the mountains, sometime. It's alot more fun and challenging and longer." Since then...we got on this little "test run" road and she doesn't even flinch, or get excited.

    I was kinda worried at first with people asking "how much further til we get there?" at the QT and stuff. And also when we got up there "so how far into it are we?" I got a little worried... Apparently, my assumptions were wrong, LoL.

    And also when we got up there "so how far into it are we?"
    I asked you this because i was just curious. and when you said we were about 1/3 to 1/2 the way into it i was totally excited.

    and people were asking how long till we get there @ QT because they were so anxious

    Do you realize that you just caused probably like 5 people to open up paintshop and start playing around?

    Personally, I think I should have had my socks pulled up..

    I think it comes from paranoia from when I was little kid and had a party, and I THOUGHT it was good, but no one else thought so. So now I just worry too much that people are having fun...LoL. FUCKING CHILDHOOD MEMORIES!

    sounds like fun! I'd just hate to push my car too much and total that thing, ya know. I didn't really loose control today, but i definatly felt my car pushing to the outside of the turn when i was pushin it.

    Sounds like time for upgrades... Let me know if you want advice.

    Otherwise...hell, just stay in your limits, and you'll do fine.

    Struts, I use KYB AGX. They're costly, but HELLA worth it. I run Skunk2 race coils, those struts, and urethane bushings. I have no sway or strut bars.

    Oh...and Proxes 4's on the shoes.

    Uproot - Our professional photographer, and fellow EF driver. Outstanding photography that you've provided for everyone. Great organizing at the varsity (despite the impatient people...LoL) Thanks for comin' out...EF or not.

    MainStream - I think I got the right username. Either way...Charles at MSPi. Thanks for throwing us up on the Dyno, and running our cars, and letting us hang out for a minute. Great hosting.

    These three gentleman deserve the praise for the good time ya'll had this weekend, and the results that came of it. Positive reps to the three are neccessary, I feel, and let's hope to encourage them to help us out the next time we have another meet.

    Finally, thanks to EVERYONE who came out to represent. It was great meeting several new faces, and seeing some old, and more than anything...learning some faces behind the screen names. We got some great photos, made new friends, found out that some of us live closer to each other than we thought...but more than anything, we supported each other and built each other's confidence for driving Honda's little bastard child. To anyone who didn't come out...you missed one HELL of a fucking good time!

    I can't wait for the next meet to see how everyone's cars have progressed. Hope to see ya'll, then!

    What can i say? I was thinking about you. LOL

    Thanks joker!!!

    Traffic makes me sleepy, so I was shit let me get back to the house. What can I say, weaving through traffic about 100mph will keep you awake LOL. But when I finally got home, my phone wouldnt stop ! On top of that I kinda fell asleep while talking to my girlfriend (I guess I'm in the dog house). Thank god I woke up around 4:45am so I can get ready for work.

    oh yeah, to whoever put the meet together: thank you. i think EF owners are a whole hell of a lot less shady than EG owners.

    LoL, we drive the bastard of Honda. We don't have any room to be shady...

    And yeah, not sure when I'll go...probably late this summer...

    Dare did most of the organizing, so credit him. He pulled all the strings. Me...he just kinda asked me to lead on sunday since the mtn run was my idea...so it just LOOKED like I had done alot of planning. Credit goes to D.
