Default Bob is New to Hondas and this site

I may be new to Hondas, but God gave me a talent
for building and fixing almost anything. I really enjoy
a suspension that sticks to the road in the turns.
A woman who 1. Appreciates cuddling for the
sake of cuddling, and/or 2. Has the presence of mind
to really DRIVE a car, is incredibly exciting to me.
I also own the "Road Warrior" Chevy Nova that
you see around town.
-----
I thought about bringing my portable alignment stuff to
the June '05 BBQ, as a way of meeting members, and so
people could at least find out what their castor and
camber is set at.
-----
My car.......
I just got a 2 liter accord that was driveable
but nothing electrical worked except the "battery"
warning light. Now, everything electrical works!

Suspension......
I replaced every front ball joint, and rubber bushing.
Thank goodness I have a hydraulic press, but I had to make
my own spring compresser.
While it was apart, I lowered the suspension by 1 1/2"
Front and rear.
-----
Starting the list of "fun stuff".......
I made a stainless steel heat shield under a 351 CI
Police Interceptor air filter for the 2 barrel carb. It was
pretty tall, so I made some hood brackets, creating a
high-rise hood for better aerodynamics, and cowl
induction. Now it BREATHES and has a slight moan
under acceleration.

I converted the headlights from flip-up to rigid mount
by making my own brackets, and covered them with
screen mesh that blends them into the body work.

More stuff is to be built as time progresses.........
If you read this far, tell me about YOUR ride........

Formed years ago, Tampa Racing.com was founded on the principles of encouraging restoration, repair or modification of special interest vehicles. Over 102,000 members strong, Tampa Racing has no national affiliation, but you will likely find its members among any number of automotive organizations including the National Street Rod Association, Mustang Club of America, Goodguys, Florida Mopar Association, Corvette Club of America, to name a few. The type of vehicles found amongst the members varies from restored early 1900's vintage automobiles, to street rods from the 30’s and 40’s, to muscle cars from the 60’s and 70’s, to present day front-wheel-drive imports and motorcycles. With the wide range of vehicles come varying degrees of modifications from bone stock to big block Pro Street monsters. There truly is something to satisfy every automotive taste.

As with the vehicles there are varying activities that the members undertake ranging from weekly cruise nights and car meets, to cruises through the countryside, cookout get-togethers, Christmas parties, open track days, organized races, beach concerts and frequent car shows. The shows are perhaps the most popular venue for many ofthe members who engage in showing their cars at almost every opportunity. Tampa Racing also co-sponsors and/or supports select charity car shows, community events. This is a way of giving back to the local communities.

So come along and join Tampa Racing where you will always be a member of the family whether at a cruise night, car meet or on the highway. And remember life is good friends, a clean ride, and the open road in front of you.
