Don't want to toot the whistle too early but I just picked up #563 and it is 100% solid. I honestly think that cylinder head was causing a lot of problems. Either way I'm glad it's over

Yeah, steve @ hmotorsonline was nice enough to separate a complete itr head for a very reasonable price. I should of replaced that variable from the start.

Stoked it's normal now. Ready to beat the crap out of it at mid ohio

Yeah Red picked up the rust bucket today, pretty excited for that one too. He's going to rebuild one of my spare oem distributors as well, which will come in handy for myself or somebody else stranded some day.

How's fatherhood treating you? I'm stoked you held on to your 97, it'll be nice to see that thing out one day

They did a pull of Jordan's car as well for comparison purposes, was stoked to see @ 5700 I'm making +14whp/+13ft/lbs with modifications that would be considered to be similar (mugen intake/smsp header&cat/stock exhaust vs bpi/samco/toda header/3" exhaust).

The 4.785 is perfect, @ 80 it's riding just below 5k and as soon as you apply throttle you're in vtec land and taking off, makes it great for highway driving.

Wooohooo!

coolhandluke · Post by **coolhandluke** » August 8th, 2010, 6:44 pm

holla.

Once I motivate myself, I'l pull the 500 photos from Road Atlanta this weekend onto the computer. Andy's PY is back and he took third place in TTC. Patrick and the we-todd lemons car are dominating, he took first place in TTF. IIRC that means he sealed the TTF champsionship. Not too bad for a $100 civic.

Those boys don't fuck around when it comes to seat time, nor driving the piss out of the VX

Yeah that's going to keep me in the carolinas, if I move back to the motherland then I'll really only have the glen close by

Road Atlanta is 1 hour 45 minutes, CMP is ~2hrs, VIR is ~4hr, Roebling Road 4.5hr, NCCAR ~6, and more...it's time I made it to more events. No excuse now.

Post by **Doespike** » August 8th, 2010, 9:50 pm

I've got the Glen 2.5 hrs away, Mid Ohio 4.5 hrs, Mosport about 1-1.5 hrs. Beaver Run, Nelson Ledges and prolly a couple others aren't too far either. Not bad for being in Buffalo

Decent amount of track within Chicago, but they're only open for 8 months/year.
- Autobahn
- Blackhawk
- Gingerman
- Grattan
- Putnam
- Road America
- Prairie Hills or whatever (not open yet)

Those are all within 3 hours except Putnam. Most are within 2 hrs.
