We pitted next to them. I talked a bunch to a guy named Felipe (I think) who used to be into turbo D series hondas.

My buddy did (I think?) his first race up there. His team has the red miata.

I wanna see pics of the poopra!!

Lol, poopra is a fitting name for it :)

Yep! Felipe was the friend I was talking about!

He's a good shit. He's had a few cool Subaru's and S2000's as well as all of the honda's over the years. Now he's into the Miata thing

Supra makes it sound nice, this thing looks like shit. :biggrin: Has to be $500 bucks after all.. I'll get some pics once it's track worthy.

Funny thing is, once we finally drove it, every time we got on the throttle a little, all sorts of mouse nests etc came flying out the exhaust. :biggrin:

Any mitsubishi guys wanna prove them wrong?

after reading this from the following blog:

Any Mitsubishi Product, but especially the Starion

The least reliable marque in LeMons racing is, without a doubt, Mitsubishi. Even British Leyland and Renault products can be considered robust next to Mitsubishi cars on a LeMons track, and that includes the Chrysler-badged DSM stuff. You name it, Eclipse/Talon, Colt/Mirage, 3000GT/Stealth—it will fall apart in our races like a house of cards blasted with a leaf blower. (Note: In a winning-the-lottery-grade stroke of crazy luck, a Mirage took the win on laps in a LeMons race a few years back.) With all that, however, the Starion/Conquest manages to take Butt Turribleness to a level beyond even the wretched Cordia; in seven years of LeMons racing and 10 or so Starions, only one has managed to run more than a few dozen laps in a race. In fact, we’re going to make it a definitive statement: The Mitsubishi Starion is the worst possible choice, in the entire universe, for a 24 Hours of LeMons car.

That article is awesome, it shows how hard road racing is on cars.
