Well boys, just got the offer I was looking for and will be starting a new job in a couple of weeks from now.

I will be making a bit more so look for a new project car in a couple months from now

Aside from that if you guys need work done, I will be as available as before but may take a bit longer to reply during the work day

Hey Congrats ET!

You will have to tell us about your new job tommorow!

Project car eh? What do you have in mind?

Mr_ET · #3 (**permalink**) 08-29-2008, 05:23 PM

Probably a civic hatch 92-95 or a 96-00.

I will be mostly building it for auto x and autoslalom purposes so don't expect turbos and huge power. Most of the build will be suspension oriented and probably a swap for a bit more power.

Depending how The Northern Alberta Sports Car Club new spec honda series goes, I might actually try and build it for that.

I plan to attend the evolution school racedays next year in May and finally get a racing liscence.

Evo school would be pretty sweet. I wanted to do that this year but looked into it too late.

A Honda spec series? Sounds interesting, Link me some details about it

Is Race City even going to be around next year?

This is all I have right now Honda-Tech.com: Road Racing/Autocross: New Spec Honda Series in Western Canada. but with a bit of searching we could probably get more details.

Racecity is scheduled to close in late October of next year.

Its a good looking series. And the start up cost is rather low in comparison to other series'. If i ever decide to get my shit in line and decide on what i want to do in the near future I'd like to participate in this as well.

but +1 for a b series race league

Oh and congrats on the new job again!

Man! If you guys both end up building cars for this I might have to this too!

Keep me posted on upcoming info!

Have been looking at getting a used G35 as a track car. It is classed way lower than the 350Z even though it is basically the same chassis and engine. Also easy to pick one up for under 20K.
