[slider2828]

[Gordo714]

[Mute]

As of now, these are the Japanese cars coming over.

[Marcus]

Won't be ready


it is ready, but the sponsors for the car wont cover D1USA as it isnt part of the Japan series.

im def. gonna be there though. those are some of the top drivers from Japan.

[kevmeistah21]

[speed_racerx]

[Project3328]

i wonder how they are gonna arrange the seating. seeing how its gonne be in the parking lot

[duffman1278]

I'll be there :D

[simplistek]

i'll be there. find me in the vertex booth!

Iwould like to drive the veent, but I read the rule book and some of those rules are just too weird.

Seems like everything that has fluid in the car needs a catch tank.
How strict is all this?

[l20bdime]

i think the rulebook is really fair so far. Formula D rules are so stupid. Catch tanks sound like overkill but really just put the vent hose of the tranny and diff into a tank of some sort.

[yokotavia]

what happened to daigo's mustang?

that piece of shit is hideous...

[Brian]

I don't know, Tommy.... seems like Tough work.

can I use stock seatbelts?

[aoiken3]

gonna try to make this one

[deadpirate]

i will be there supporting a few drivers

[ZX88]

[DALAZ_68]

They're building the bleachers for people to sit, just like normal seating as if you were in a stadium watching a game.

[EmKayThree]

I don't really think there's anything wrong with the rulebook. As for the catch can, people seem to be complaining about it a lot. I don't see anything wrong with it.

Isn't the purpose of the oil catch tank, to take out more gunk than the oil filter itself? Won't it help the performance of the car? Or does it not really matter?

Easy fix BH.

Buy a 6pack of hieneken, or asaki if you wanna be JDM.
Drink 6pack.
move battery behind passenger seat.
velcrow and ziptie 6pack onto battery tray with empty bottles in the empty spots.
now run all your catch lines into the different bottles.
easy
effective
cool looking
multi purpose and money saving in these economic times.

[l20bdime]

If you just run the hoses from the valve cover back to the intake like stock, thats ok. just cant have a little filter on the valve cover.

Can't have zipties holding anything.

[ericcastro]

Can't have zipties holding anything.

But the velcro and empty beer bottles are ok?
lol

Is Duct Tape really rated for 200mph?:wiggle:



back on topic though, Im stoked that D1 is back!

[turns101]

Lets get a list going of who will be doing the driver's search...

[lost240soul]

Yo i got flyers that give u 3 bucks off if u guys want them.. hit me up ill be at adams this saturday so if u need one let me know..

[drifterken]

yup yup ive heard about this too.. hopefully i can make it!.. =) shits gonna be tight.


anyone applying to be media?

[shinda_shima]

I live by the stadium, I'm going to be there for sure!

[EmKayThree]

You know if you buy your tickets online, can you still use that $3 flyer coupon?

I like how they are using the computerized scoring to give a big chunk of the overall score.
I still think judges bring in their own personal feeling when it comes to judging (favorites and what not). Deep down inside personal feelings will always play a factor. Like how i think Kobe Bryant is a real good player, and I say good things about him, but I still hate the guy.
Well now there's a computer that can back up, help with the judging.

[og drifter]

ill try to go to the driver serch but need a cage
