For the newer folks - Meet the Founder of NICO.

Awesome - Matter of fact, I'll be meeting with him this weekend.

Hah, I can hear it in a High School Autoshop class in 2080. "Who was the founder of NICO? Dr. Rex!". The "Dr." in the name just sounds like it'll make history on it's own, and he has NICO to follow it too

Ask him what the R33 is running!

Sunny? You mean scorching!

Haha, since that ^ was posted, the NOS Q has made it's way to Wes in Indiana and the S/C Q is STILL stuck in storage on Orlando.

The R33, btw, is still insanely fast!

I just re-read this and noticed Nismo_Freak talking about the S20. Aren't S20's nearly impossible to come by? Last I heard they cost like $20,000 in solid running condition, am I wrong?

This IS the 160hp Inline 6 2.0L that powered the KPGC-10 Hakosuka, correct?

Post by **NSR_s30** » Thu Sep 07, 2006 3:12 am

Talk about an true enthusiast, the roadster is amazing and the Skyline sounds godly. It's great to finally see the creator of our world of Nico. Thanks Dr. Rex.

Will he be at NICO this year?

Post by **HashiriyaS14** » Thu Sep 07, 2006 3:21 am

^^

You mean NOPI?

Post by **Gold Digger** » Thu Sep 07, 2006 3:23 am

I'm hoping to meet him in December if he comes for the NISMO festival. Greg, has he said anything to you about that lately?

I'd e-mail him, but I feel like it would be jumping the "Chain of command"...lol

Post by **pirate87** » Thu Sep 07, 2006 6:17 am

Im loving the roadster...

here's a video of a 1600 my cousin raced one weeked at the VIR-->

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEqbZvPhrl8

....he's still with the same team, but they've put the 1600 aside for a while to run a Neon, ouch

Post by **AZhitman** » Thu Sep 07, 2006 7:57 am

Dr. B has indicated he will most likely NOT be at ATL this year.

He has a ton of prior commitments, one of which is his oldest son's football game and his middle son's soccer game.

You gotta love that. Props to a REAL MAN and a damn fine role model...

Post by **Dattebayo** » Thu Sep 07, 2006 8:00 am

You can say that again. You can see how he got so far in life because his priorities are right in line!

One of you moderators with all of your moderating power should sticky this thread, so all the newbies (like me) can read it. Of everything I've seen stickied, this definitly deserves to be there.

Yeah, acronyms own me...

Sucks he wont be there. I was hoping to see another car from his fine collection of classic Datsuns. But nothing comes before the family!
