I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Altoona/J-town people come here!!

Post by miyagi » August 19, 2004

Anyone from the altoona, Johnstown, etc area ... come to the Pittsburgh Raceway (Keystone Raceway) in New Alexandria on Wednesda, August 25th. Racing starts at 6 and lasts till 10ish. Depending on the amount of people, you can get 3-4 or more runs in ... I got 8 one time. It's $15 to race, $6 to watch. As far as hondas/acuras go ... there are usually a few nice ones. Yesterday there was a 5th gen coupe with an h22, a 5th gen hatchback with a b18b, a 4th gen hatchback with a b18c5 and my gsr. There was also a nice 240 down there, didn't get to check it out up close too much, but i'm pretty sure it had a sr20det in it ... pulling low 13's. If all goes well I'll be down there continuing my quest for 13's ... but that depends when some stuff comes in. If we can get enough people from the area, maybe we could meet somewhere and drive up together ... or just meet at the track. Right now, the only people I KNOW are going are me and darren in his gsr. There will probably be people riding with us but who knows. Luke might come down with his zc 4th gen (probably won't race though) and duanne might come bring his brother's b16 5th gen.
I'm not sure if i'm gonna race ... I broke my blower belt last night during my last pass soooo if jackson ships out my belt and i get it this week, I'll be there.

also found out my vtec hasn't been working the ENTIRE TIME .... so if i can get that working, then 13's should be too hard :D

I haven't been to the track at all this year. I wanted to make it down at some point. I haven't run my car yet.

Was that 240 copper? If it was Jay from Hybridynamics then it is a sr20.

well today's the day - hope to see a few of you down there. I'll be hanging around with the kid in a mostly stock black gsr, wearing a jhpusa shirt. My belt didn't come in yet - so I can't run my car - but i'll probably be going down next week too so I can run it.
