Crap, Kaan might actually have a running project and I have 2 non-running projects. Has the world gone upside down?

I'm leaving my gopro at home for Summit... no need to film the pain train.
I might hit the local loop once I clear it of County Mounties

I think EuroImages was the name... they were the vendor that was around when Mike/RJ were tracking their cars. I have no problems with FinishLine, and understand its a one man show... but sometimes you need to tune your craft, ie. slow your shutter speed, and try some new vantage points.
Plus the EuroImage guys loved to buy drinks for people at Vixens hah.

EuroImage was awwwwwful. You could park your car in the middle of the track, get out take a picture and end up with the exact same shot as euroimage.
A photog buddy of mine chatted him up one time and he said he gave zero shits about cars or track stuff, which showed in his work. looks like at least finishline puts a little sense of motion in the cars best pro photos Ive ever seen was a crew at Mid Ohio. They had a huge toterhome trailer setup with about a dozen mac workstations for previewing your pics before you buy them. And the shots were magazine cover quality

I'm crawling under the car tonight to confirm, but I'm 99.9% sure I blew out the gasket between the header and the exhaust. I questioned the gasket that was provided with the header when I installed it... I should have gone with my gut I feel.
so I need to swing by the store to pick up a S2k collector donut (aka the 2.5 inch Honda collector gasket). I'm also going to try that copper exhaust sealer stuff along with these clamps... instead of the traditional U clamps. They are made for slip fit systems and should help keep the sealer from blowing out when I rev it until the valves float

How fast you gonna spin that B18 and what's your FD gearing?

I caught my self at 7k on the way home... I paid shipping for the header and $50 for my intake, no more money will be invested in the B18... so FD is stock also
