or if you guys are interested on renting the circuit track for a day, we could race around but i heard its pretty expensive to rent the whole track( not sure how much and if we are in a club we get a little discount) i know to drag race on fridays is around $50 bucks

damn guys.. how can you keep your car so CLEAN!?? i learned the hard way to day.. when i was at home, nothing to do, so i decieded to wash my car with just water. and it was bad. pretty much wasted my time. do you wax your car? i saw illusive's pictures, his ride is like mirror finish.. oh man. i wish mine like that. which product you use to keep it clean? and how long does it last?

That was where i ran a 15.6 with my 2000 Civic Si-R..... that 15.6 was run coasting in neutral and tapping the brake a couple times about 3/4 the way down the strip... I was running a Zex nitrous kit and I melted 2 plugs, chipped 2 valves and killed a piston... and it only had 20,000kms on the odometer..... I swear I was on my way to a 14.0 run.
As for running on the track... I think that would be a lot of fun.. pretty hard on the car/susp/tires/brakes but once in a while couldn't hurt
I hope to be able to stop by this saturday... not sure if I can, but I'll make an attempt

Some tips to keep your car in top condition (well my rule of thumb anyways):
Wax once every 3 weeks in the summer. Wax whenever possible during winter to keep the car in good condition.
Use the touch up sprays to keep it looking great between waxes.
Get a California Duster to remove all of the loose dust that collects on the car, this happens a lot in Calgary so it is really handy to have; follow up with spray.
DONT DRIVE OVER ANYTHING THAT REMOTELY LOOKS LIKE WATER!!! I go out of my way to avoid puddles, wet patches, people watering their lawns, etc. Make sure you keep track of wind direction on windy days as the lawn spray can easily spray onto your car if it is windy enough outside...

That would be a fun trip.. I wish we had the Taffeta White Fits available in Canada..
Oh BTW.... is anyone going to the meet have the A-Spec axleback? I am thinking of getting it, but I would really like to see how it sounds before I do..
Also, I want to make everyone aware of the "mugen" style vent visors that are sold on ebay and other online stores... I got my set a couple days ago and installed it.. they look ok, but the fit isn't that good and there quality of the workmanship of these visors aren't great either. If you aren't a total picky person this would be ok, but for me I can't say that I do like them.. I think I am going to order up the actual Mugen ones from A-J Racing.

As for the visors, I had to bite on the real thing, I'm quickly learning that on this car, most knock off items are horribly made. It's either the whole way or no way for me for the Fit. A-Spec one, I don't know if any of us do, I can't remember. But at the meet on Saturday, I'll be with my Fujitsubo Wagolis and MAYBE Spoon B-Pipe, I think a Spoon N1 will be there as well.
