mine are homemade (arts and crafts store stuff). You can get a nice set from rallydecals.com for only $25. it cost me almost that much to make mine, which are starting to fall apart after doing some events in the rain. I should have just bought them the first time...

Looks like you had a blast. How did the GCs perform? They take some getting used to compared to stock I'm sure...

they freaking RULE. Well, the whole setup does, actually. there's a review in the 6th Gen forum. I have the shocks set at full stiffness all around

Nice pics, looks like fun. Maybe someday I'll be able to make my car functiuon properly so I can get my ass back on the track..



This should probably be in sights and sounds.

It's about racing ;)

since we don't have a "motorsports" section, I'll leave it here.

Anyone who wants to try this out, click on the link in my signature . . .

Both faster than me of course, but I wasn't competing against either of them.

Your car looks so aggresive in those pics. Congrats on the 7th, you must have some skills. Im gonna have to try auto x next summer.

word, everyone needs to try this at some point. It's nowhere near as risky as people seem to think it is. Save the $30 you would have spent on an eBay intake, and go to an event http://www.hondacivicforum.com/micons/m6.gif

I'm not retarded. But I thought we established that all pictures went into sights and sounds. Kinda makes it hard to enforce rules like that when we have admins breaking them. I don't disagree that the thread should be here in theory, as it is about racing, but it's also picture oriented.

I don't really care either way, this just saves me having to move 20 threads a day.

I got 11th in novice on my first day with an essentially stock Cooper... damn sway bar puts me in STS. I think I would have been a couple spots higher up if I was in the H-Stock class. Such a blast though, I'm looking forward to do it again Sunday.:D

Here's some action pics of the Cooper, I dont' think Marnie is any of these pics though.

I don't know what you could possibly do to an EG that would put it in STX instead of STS . . .

i thought the same thing...but it really didnt matter, i am not officially in the scca yet, i just did one of the, "come out, pay $30 and race a few times for fun, and then leave.." though i am currently looking into getting into the scca..
