Daily Driver - 92 Honda CX Hatch

Likes - MPG. It's a hatch. Shifts so smooth. Lots of room for stuff I never allow to stay in it for more than when I need it. Easy to work on. Fun to drive. Manual steering. I can take it to the autox course for some fun.

Dislikes/Annoyances - Some sensor is out of whack. Cylinder 3 is losing compression. Burning oil due to very high mileage. I'll be building a bottom end soon (Okay I do enjoy that). Needs a paint job. Stupid trucks/suvs/vans think its fun to come up within a 1/4" of my back bumper at lights. It's the Honda fan boy car so keeping it on lock-down is a must. Guys freaking out that its clean and that I own it.

Project Car - 91 Honda STD Hatch (SCCA XP)

Likes - MPG. High Compression SOHC. Tosses into a corner like a dream. It's on rails. Rotates well into the course. Stays flat through corners and slamons. Flat torque curve. He's been with me since day one off the lot. Can carry all event equipment to the track/event location. Shifts smooth. Drives smooth. Easy to work on. Wheels/Tires/Suspension. The community of autocrossers I am part of.

Dislikes/Annoyances - I am in a SCCA class that I'll never fully prep him for. Need an LSD and should really go to 13x7 rims with slicks to improve my 2nd gear ratio so I won't have to shift on high speed courses. Some people that see him on the street thinks I'm out to race them - uh hello notice the legit race event stickers on him. Track only buddy. Or they laugh because they think I'm a ricer. Sure I have trophies not war stories moron. Stupid trucks/suvs/vans think its fun to come up within a 1/4" of my back bumper at lights. That when I take him out of town/state for an event I can't get a good nights sleep unless he is locked up at the track with a zillion other cars that are worth more than him. Guys freaking out that its clean and that I own it.

Project Car - 90 Honda CR-X Si (Drag Car)

Likes - MPG. NA BHP/Torque. Interior is intact. Is a blast to drive. Suspension. The engine. Easy to work on. Makes former CR-X owners say, "I wish I had never gotten rid/lost mine." Breaks the tires loose in 3rd gear near 7k rpms. Flat torque curve. Can't wait to put it on better tires and lighter rims.

Dislikes/Annoyances - The idea that I should strip the hell out of it so it will be quick down the track. I understand their reasoning but I just like going to meet people and have fun. Domestics who like to GRRR at me. So I GRRR back to much of their drivers surprise. Stupid trucks/suvs/vans think its fun to come up within a 1/4" of my back bumper at lights. Guys freaking out that its clean and that I own it.

btw I really do love the Honda community and have for 24 plus years and counting. Now if we could only get of all the stupid kids/adults who think stealing is their only way to have some part of it.
