Have you ever seen a pink unicorn? You can find one right beside a 3rd gen F-body that doesn't overheat in an endurance race. Seriously, even that Poorsche you guys are building is a better choice.


They couldn't keep it on the track at CMP but Im pretty sure it wasn't due to overheating of the car....

I just talked to Mark a few days ago and he said it looks like they will have the sentra ready by this coming race. Somehow I need to get in the middle of this whole chump car racing thing. Looks like a blast.

At worst I can wander around to find you and pick those up on Friday.


On a side note:

You actually fit in your Honda with your helmet on right? :lol:

I thought at first Holton was joking when he told me that, then I saw you in Sunny...

Most cars with a sunroof are a tight fit for me when wearing a helmet. We obviously removed the sunroof from the Prelude so that helps. Also race seats generally sit lower, which is how I was able to fit in Ryan's old CRX.

These are the only times I wish a were a midget...errr I mean "little person".

yep, when I bought the RX8 I wanted my color combo w/o a sunroof. It was a pink unicorn that I couldn't find. So I have a sunroof and will use that as an excuse to get an aftermarket seat that sits closer to the ground because of it. I fit in it albeit tightly now, I just want a "bit" more room myself.

I hear ya though. One of the reasons I think we are going to take the moonroof out of the 924 and just weld a plug in there to get the headroom for my short (6'7") father...

Sounds too complicated. We used a road sign (no, we didn't steal it), some caulking, and pop-rivets. 8)
