I will be autoXing on days when the road courses I go to are closed. (Lime Rock, Englishtown's Road Course, NJ Motorsports Park, Watkins Glen, etc)

I want to pick up an E30 or an E36 but unfortunately I am saving up for a bike.

Love that front bumper....My nephew is active Auto Xer. He drives a blue Acura RSX. His car was featured in the modified magazine years back.

major wear on the suspension, brakes, engine or God forbid accident on the track. IMO not worth it for them to give me a reason to bitch about warranty. id rather get a nice e30 with a s14 swap
