        I've decided that my car is a girl, she's picky as hell, won't listen to me, always wants to fight me, and when i give her presents it's never good enough and she always wants more.

                    I used to put my old 27' RV into 6wheel drift in mostly empty ski lots every now and then. I drove that thing a whole lot stoopider than I used to ski..in the interest of being able to walk, I don't really much ski anymore...

                          This winter I have 2 scooter builds going on. Next winter I plan to be in a warmer climate!

                          My 1982 Honda urban express frame. I parted out a 1990 Yamaha Jog and plan to use the front forks and engine from it. Then use Honda Spree handle bars and headlight. It should do about 40-45mph and be 100% road legal (I have the title!)

                          My 1985 Honda Spree, I have a 1988 Honda elite 50cc engine with a 65cc big bore kit and some other mods on it I have been building. A set of forks off a newer Elite. Upgraded rear spring and larger brake drums,rims,tires. Should do about 50-55mph when I am done! Also 100% road legal!

                            I'm really starting to get jazzed up for ice racing, so I have to put up this photo:


                            I'm gonna build another set of tires this year, even better than last year's prototypes. Instead of bald azenis, I'm using a set of Blizzaks that I've used for daily driving over the last couple of years, and a rallyX or two. going to go with more bolts, and the tread blocks in the Blizzaks will help evacuate water/slush when the ice starts to soften towards the end of the season.

                                I finally have a BP powered car, and a second BP to rebuild!! I am super pumped for this winter. I plan on rebuilding the engine and putting some sort of turbo setup together to make 200whp. I think thats feasible with a budget of about $1500. I'll get the head rebuilt and maybe some new rods and pistons for insurance. I'll also have an extra G-series laying around, just in case.....
