hey doug, i went last year, and i have a couple of tips for you to win....

1. chrome your entire engine...blingin' definitely helps
2. get a huge ass park bench of a wing, and chrome that too, bling helps
3. get some chrome spinners (no explanation necessary)
4. get a ford powerstroke or other incredibly large fmic, and chrome it and wire tie it to the front bumper..
5. get like 10 lcd screens and put them every where in your car
6. play some sick japanese porn on said lcd screens

if you follow these simple tips, you too can win at Import Motion.... :rofl:

you know, i think i might go again this year, if i can get my friend with the riced Prelude to drive..... it wasnt that bad, but i took way too many pictures.....

yeah doug, i assumed that was you....

seriously though, the only realistic, non-chrome, daily driven turbo i saw was a t3/t4 hybrid on a h22 prelude...

other than the supercharged dinan bmw's, not a whole lot of practical forced induction... i've got a whole lot of pics, i just need to find a scanner...lots of funny/rice/bling pics...especially the chrome supercharger on an escalade....i almost wet myself when i saw that... :rofl:

i think i might go again this year, since im a whole lot closer now... as opposed to the debauchery filled weekend last year, i can just drive home..

How about you have a sign that says "Turbo" that points at the Holset, and another sign that says "Intercooler" that points to the NPR???

They'd definatly help with some of the idiots at those shows.

And then maybe another sign that says "Runs this Year" pointing to Doug's Car :lol: Another another sign next to it reading "Fast"

i have no hope of winning anything at the sactown event, but at least i can relish in the fact that my sub 2000 dollar hoopty wagon, can beat at least half the cars there, makes me smile.

When they have 5 categories for just hondas and a "best graphics" slot, you know the show is god damn retarded.

Hank Scorpio

Glad to hear you think that... sure am happy you felt the need to declare that in this thread.

From who I've talked to, its supposed to be a good show... graphics/hondas or not. Hey, you want there to be a volvo aftermarket? You gotta get people into the cars... and you have to show the world that volvos are cheap, easy to work on, fast, ect and shows are a good place to do that.

Plus, I enjoy meeting new people, hanging out with new people and video taping the peoples faces as they walk by and see that holset staring at them.

Post some more info or a website if ya got it! looking forward to seeing all your cars.... i envy them all btw...

I'm supposed to go down to Sacramento to pick up a set of rims for my 960. Was aiming for sometime in January, but the weather has been getting steadily worse. I may have to just play this one by ear.

I'll get back to you via PM when I know more about my trip.
