Brett, ask anyone in Allstars, its 50% car , 50% the owner. That is how we also view )the scene. Any A-hole w/ $$ can build a car, and alot of real cool guys are not in a place to spend $$, and we all can understand that.

I like Ellingwood have deep import roots w/ East Coast Honda, (and way earlier...We showed a 85 accord in a national show in 1989...and won) I was able to share in ECHs lengthy success, and I personally was one of a few guys who shut it down when the time had come. Go out on top mentality.

IMO, To be an OG you dont need the baddest car, If so there'd be one OG. You dont need the most knowledge, just real world experience and an open mind to absorb everything around you, and help make changes for the better so todays new guys can have the chance to be OGs themselves. Ex- I remember Josh Nixon first hittin the scene w/ his dad at shows in his red civic (before the LS swap and the JRSC....well before the sweeeet Teg). Now look....OG to the fullest.
I may not be OG, but I remember alot, and I wanna look back on today years from now w/ fond memories too. Ya dig?!
