OLD CLUB MEMBER, NEW NAME

mr2tim · 04-23-2008, 05:04 PM

GREETINGS TOYOTA LOVERS,

I LIKE THE NEW LOOK OF THE MR2 CLUB WEBSITE, IT HAS BEEN TOO MANY YEARS SINCE I LAST LOGGED ON AS "OLD RACER'..

MY MR2 EXPERIENCE IN 1989 WAS TO GO DIRECTLY INTO SHOWROOM STOCK RACING W SCCA RIGHT FROM THE SHOWROOM FLOOR.

MET SOME OF THE NICEST FOLKS YOU EVER WANT TO MEET IN THE SCCA.
GOOD PLACE FOR YOUR KIDS TO LEARN TO RACE TOO.

MY 'supercharzed toy' RACED AUTOCROSS 3-4 YEARS GRADUATED INTO VERY HIGH SPEED TIME TRIALS WITH THE ADDITION OF A ROLL CAGE WITH REMOVABLE DOOR BARS SOAS I COULD RACE DAILY TO WORK TOO?

UNLIKE TOLEDO, OHIO, SOUTH FLORIDA RACERS DO IT 12 MO. A YEAR. IF YOU GOT THE MONEY THEY HAVE A VENUE, OR TWO, THREE..

WITH MY WIFE AS MECHANIC (?) AND CO-DRIVER WE RACE FROM THE KEYS TO AS FAR AS NORTH AS THE TELLADEGA ROAD COURSE.

HELL, WE WERE SO INTO RACING WE DID THE HILLCLIMBS SERIES FOR 3 YEARS.

MOM DRIVES A 87 N/A AND I HAVE BUILT A 88 S/C WRECK (900.00) INTO A DAILY DRIVER. UNBELIEVEABLY STORED 13 YEARS WITHOUT BEING TOUCHED.

NEXT TO THE GARAGE IS A 86 N/A AT MR2 WHICH I HAVE NOT DECIDED WHAT TO DO WITH YET, BESIDES TINKERING..

OH YEAH, I WENT TO BGSU OUTSIDE 'OL TOLEDO, OHIO. I'M A CONST TECH WITH ENGINEERING AND CADD EXPERIENCE AFTER 15 YEARS AS A CONTRACT CONST SUPERINTENDENT.

I LIVE NEXT TO THE EAST SIDE OF THE EVERGLADES, WEST OF BOCA RATON AND LOVE HURRICANES.

BY THE WAY, IF I MAKE AN ASS OUT OF MYSELF IN WRITING, LET ME KNOW. I'M NOT A BIG COMPUTER FAN AND HAVE LOTS OF TROUBLE EVERYTIME I SIT DOWN HERE.

NEED ADVICE OR MARK1 PARTS I'M YOUR GUY.

NICE TALKIN' AT YA

FROM PARADISE,

mr2tim

Welcome back then. Sounds like you got a lot of deuces in the family, and good for you for restoring a wrecked MKI.

P.S. SHUT OFF YOUR CAPS LOCK PLEASE. People will get on your case about that in here.

That means; EGH = 92-95 Civic hatchback, DX, D15B7 = 1.5 D-series SOHC non VTEC engine.

BTW, click the link you'll see what that is exactley.
