Right myself and the other staff members from the national civic owners club are organising a road trip to "The Ring" next year. No dates as yet but thought i should post it up here to see if anyone else would be interest in going, would be in the summer time i would imagine. So far its shaping up to be one of those MUST events, sofar there is 150+ confirmed/interested honda owners. So would be good if we could get a GCC crew set up to go down as well.
It would be great to see and hear a couple hundred hondas going through the ring with the sound of them hitting Vtec ringing in the air.
Let me know what you all think, will try and keep this updated when i have more info.

the oil cooler pipe burst which inturn f**ked the engine. I wouldn't go for a scooby, you have to spend lots of money to get big power as the internals are not all that strong where as with an evo the internals can run happy upto about 380-400 bhp. I know where ur coming from tho they do sound nice and dump valves sound so cool and really addictive

just turbo a civic engine and you'll get Vtec + turbo Maybe a day at knockhill would be good, but ofcourse you dont HAVE to be flinging your car round the track at the nurburgring, i know i wont be pushing it as you got to drive back again. Just saying ive driven on the ring would be enough for me, maybe on the straights but just take it easy on the sharper bends. I know i'd be playing GT 4 alot more to learn the track  lol |
