:eek: So I go to the local newstand to check out the new mags when a mag called "drifting" catches my eye. Yeah, there is not much to say about it. Lets just say they have an article on a 180 w/ ca18 when in the pics it's obviously an sr20. Sigh

I did a search for "drifting" and "Import Racer" and nothing came up so I thought I would post. I probably would have picked up the mag but I wanted to spend the $4.99 on the new Super Street insted. Yeah, I was pretty lucky to find my car sortof in the area. I bought it from NJ and the swap was done at Heavy Throttle. It was nice because all the other cars I looked at were either mostly in FL or CA. I just saw today that there is a "car Show" at the local Walmart this weekend. I was thinking of showin' off the sr =^)

If I find anything I will probably make a general post to make sure everyone knows about it. There is a Superstreet tour thing comming to MD next month http://www.superstreetonline.c....htmlI dont know details, like what exactly it is. Do you go there and look at cars? Do you cruse with other pimped cars?

EDIT: after reading more it looks like you just drive with people untill you get to atlanta for the NOPI nationals

LMFAO, That is exactly what I say every time I watch that show on saturday... "soopah toonah TV, Peeeace." I want to start a show like Horsepower TV but for imports. "Today wer are going to do a rb25 swap into an s13 and later in the show we will start out single turbo upgrade on this 94 supra." As opposed to the one show I saw, dent remember the name, where is was how to make a custom fiberglass speaker box.

Ya, I like Horsepower TV. I even like Trucks!. But Super2NRTV makes me sad. The hosts annoy me. People say they like them. 1 of them is bad enough. 2 is pretty annoying. Some of the stuff they do is ok I guess.

My favorite thing about "Trucks" is that of course a guy named Stacy would have a mullet and build jacked-up trucks. I mean that would be the best way to be manly and still be named Stacy.
