Robert, I know it's easy to poke fun at hondas, I've been guilty of it, but to my knowledge, none of us have done anything that would make them feel unwelcomed. If they would just come out and have a good time I think they would feel alot better about it. Afterall, it clearly states that the meet is an open invitation to all makes and models. I've actually owned an s2000 and for the wry short time that I had it before I blew the motor, I loved that car. Only reason I dent buy another one was because I felt that with the z I was getting a little more bang for my buck and I still do but at the same time, I do really want another one lol
Exactly. I'm still trying to figure out why they are feeling "left out" or unwelcome as it was put on the facebook page. To the best of my knowledge, most of the Hondas that came out were pretty well done. Not exactly clean, but nicely modified, at least the ones I saw were. The only thing I can think of is on the DI page about it, someone was saying the meet was great until some Honda guys showed up and started revving? And it isn't like I haven't posted nine ways for people to get in contact with me for anything about the meet. *Shrug*. I'm thinking they were expecting like a welcoming party or something.

On a separate note, we are getting closer to a finalized flyer design, and despite being shot down by NOS and Monster, I am set up to talk to Amp tomorrow to see if we can get them to come out.

some of the honda guys have little man syndrom. they seem to think since they have 4 cyl. vechiles they have to make them louder and rev their engines to all holy hell. not all of them but usually a few bad apples in the group ruin their image.

Hey Jason, you think I should try and get a replacement from Stance or get an extended allen key from Sears to adjust the rears? First time to try and soften the rear and this happens!

yep....that **** happens........stance really dropped the ball on their extender design....

I say get the T-handle allen and use those....get the T-handle allen keys that have a BALL end so you can go at it with a slight angle.

Chase,

I would contact Stance and let them know that their extenders broke and that you're going with a trusty Craftsman tool. They charge extra for those extenders and you should get your money back.
