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

awwww hellllllssss nawwww. Gotta rep yo hood nigga, naw mean.

We all sat back long enough to see our streets filled with 1st gen talons raping everyone. Darren gave them their first taste of what was to come like 4-5 years ago with his LS swapped CRX. We've been wreaking havoc ever since haha. Darren spanked most of the 'big import guys' around here with his GSR swapped, I lit up a few punks while supercharged, duanne held it down last summer ... my first race after i was turbo'd was some 'no joke 12.30 while spinning' AWD talon ... murdered.

This year it's going down though haha ... i'm just going to be an innocent bystander while on stock block... i'll let darren and duanne clean up the mess this year.

We need to have another meet here in altoona at hooters or some strip club or something...
