[exitspeed]

Congrats.

I was in a magazine once for my 8" that made me famous.

[1985zcar]

haha that's sweet...one of the Modified magazines covers Formula D in Seattle and there's a pic that shows some of the grand stands and you can see me and my friends in it...that was our moment of fame, hahaha

[mehsilvia]

Thanks guys.

Yeah, with the Track Smurf out there, those Camera's wont know what hit them - lolz
They wont be able to resist

[upSLIDEdown]

Hells yeah! Congrats! That's a good feeling isn't it? I made it Modified Mag last year around this time when I was at GT Live (well, the front of my car anyway...LOL). Coming up again soon, maybe I'll be lucky enough to make it again. *wishful thinking*

[kandyflip445]

HAHAHA. That's awesome. For a second I was thinking..."is this going to be NSFW?"

[Tops*]

Congratulations to everyone ^^^ I hope to make it into a mag someday...

[eastcoastS14]

thats sick.....I have that issue right next to me, I looked at that pic it completely didnt even register that thats your car lol....congrats man :bigok:

[2ilvia]

so you 240s got beat out by a scion tc and a neon?

[Antihero983]

l bought that issue, looked at that pic and thought "hmm that car looks way too fuckin familiar..."

lol well, congrats! car looks good for a track car btw! :2f2f:

[burnsauto]

congrats man! i was flipping through and said out loud "that dudes off zilvia, woot!" (yes...even the woot.)

+1 rep for awesome car coverage.

[2Slow40]

Sweet man! Did you even know your car was photographed?

[khilgers]

I recognized it when I was flipping through at the grocery store. I remember the zilvia sticker on the rear fender. Congrats, can I have your autograph?

[mehsilvia]

Thanks guys.

Yeah i am most certainly gonna milk this one for awhile. My friends and family are gonna get sick of seeing and hearing about it - lol

And No, I had no idea Modified was there taking the photo's. There are always photographers at these events, most of them are professional guys who resell them at the event or use them to just generaly promote motorsports.

The fact that this photo was used in a actual magazine was a total surprise. They took hundreds of photo's that day, and i found about a couple posted on their website.

This closeup is awesome, guess it was a little much to expect in the mag (or on the cover)

[lflkajfj12123]

LOL my buddy handed me this magazine in class yesterday and i was flipping through it and i recognized your car i was like that car is off zilvia

nice man

[ZodiacSR]

so you 240s got beat out by a scion tc and a neon?

LOL, I wasn't qualifying for the time attack event, just getting seat time at Big Willow track. I'm still rockin' stock KA24DE motor...

MehSilvia, hahaha.. thanks for the heads up. I never know about these things until you bring it to my attention. I need to buy a copy of that magazine now!

We actually have a few guys that go to the track with us from Zilvia.net. It would be great to see more 240's out there. I'm practically tracking a bonestock car, so theres no excuse to get out there guys!

Word, Im going to hopefully have my car ready for some track days by the end of this month. I just got my coilovers on and dialed in- took a run up to Angeles Crest this morning and it became pretty damn clear that I need to invest in better braking... By the time I got from the end where the road is closed back down to Newcombs Ranch my front brakes were smoking and had pretty much totally faded. LOL at my $25 pads. After letting it cool off for a while and taking it a little slower downhill it wasnt bad.

You need to give yourself a little more credit there.

You be tearing shit up out there with that KA :2f2f: It most certainly does pay to have some actual driving skills. See you out there soon.

[frankist]

I dont see the decal on the back i made you... you need more?

[mehsilvia]

Yeah, kinda sucks that you cant see it in that photo.

http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t282/mehsilvia/Exterior/Davesmotorworks.jpg

But it does look awesome.

And yeah, i do need more decals. With the blue, im now going with Gold Decals. Ill hit you up for some. Got a new sponsor as well, just waiting on their new logo. Will PM ya.

Awesome work btw!

[swayray]

i was afraid to click on this thread at first... but since i noticed there isn't a NSFW written on the title...

i'm glad that your hard work was noticed... congrats.......

Yeah photowise its not the best spot for visibility

You should do that decal in a two layer

So the logo "pops" more

Maybe chrome vinyl base with the black insert

Well, it is a thread about recognition and just plain whoring out my car. So i thought the title was catchy and would draw alot of (un-suspecting) attention - lol

Yeah, your right about that. Thanks for the idea.
