as expected my car is at the bottom list...no. 30

but it was just the beginning...

[dRedcoupe98]

by the way the drag is not a quarter mile but 300-350 (nt so sure though) meter only as the track is not an official one..it is the straight away secction of the Autodrime grandstand...

[ryan89crx]

what do you do in Dubai?

[dRedcoupe98]

what do you do in Dubai?

i am working in a petrochemicals company..chem eng'r by nature. Been here for quite a while. We have a small Honda group (UAE PEEPZ) here but most of them, as I prevously mentioned, have their cars swapped with either B16's or B18's engines. Racing is on its developing stage here not like there in the US. Speed parts are quite a few, very expensive and if it is not available we have to order it from the US, another option is we go to one scrap area near Dubai.

I'll keep my car NA as it is my daily driven and just have some fun with it on the track over the weekends....

btw ...nice avatar...cool
