EOI: THE GREAT HONDA FACE-OFF

[X2]

Soo.... on 2nr there is always a set of sh*t talk going on between car brands, models, engines, tuners themselves.... it's fun to read and all...

One tuner says they faster than the other, says the other guy is a sh*t driver and so on... so why don't we put the ole talk where the ole mouth is ?


I propose to you, in due time, with lots of planning, proper judging, methodology and tunerology:

THE 2008 GREAT HONDA FACE-OFF



A potential competition of disciplines that would pose a whole cadre of honda fanatics, tuners, drivers or competitiors against each other in a knock down, drag out, round robin style head to head contest of cojones.

Drag and Solodex are our only two doable events, so let's line em up ! Maybe we can even include a 'show-off' portion and even a small 'sound-off' contest to even out the field ?

What do you say ? We set future dates, we plan a few events and come up with a points system to put to rest (for the year at least), who the leader of the pack is !!

We'd need some experience in judging, scoring, technical specs and so on... I won't pretend to know how to arrange it at this point in time... but who's all for it ? Please... no BS talkers needed... we would need REAL owners who are interested in a true contest of what your Honda is capable of.

SOHCs, DOHCs, turbo'd, blown, spraying... no matter...Civics, Fits, NSX, S2000's, Accords... we can make it no holds barred if that's what you want !



I would be in as long as I have enough time to fix up my mechanical issues and I would propose the dates be set months in advance so that others get the same opportunities to prep their machines.


Sooooo... interested ? Post up and lets see what you're really made of gents... talkers need not apply... we need to see these machines in action. Input welcome from anyone who knows wtf this should be about... Honda club members, step up, tuners, mechanics, armchair experts... chime in !

please guys this is a really great idea
please please don't let this idea die....

[X2]

Need help to keep it on the right path.... I'm a pretty busy loafer.

When is the next honda meet ? We will need people to help develop the idea/format, etc...

[X2]

Someone good in math and statistics would be a plus to help figure a fair rating system....

ENT!! I fraid yes. My lil d15 will get trampled.

[Kinday]

Wow X2...this is a great idea. I love the notion of a Honda tough man contest

Hmmm.....Pure, balanced machines. Vehicles judged in competitive action on a 25 point system (25 points being the highest), in each of at least 4 competitive disciplines.

Points should even be awarded during scrutineering based on (1) show and style (2) set-up....lets be honest, guys spend money behind their rides (mods, swaps, etc), some credit should be shown to seperate the jocks from the stocks). And whatever else we can think of.

I'd love to brainstorm this one with you guys. I can only hope my car will be ready whenever the calendar is agreed.....put me down for this nonetheless

[type_r_teggy]

heavy hitters? please

dey dead!

[kes_vtec]

[SR]

i agree we need to meet and discuss

i can arrange to get some sponsorship for this thru anp

we will need to have some separation fron single cam to twin cam however i feel we should stick with existing motorsport rules for classification rather than trying to re invent the wheel

ie stick to existing dex classifications


but as its jsut basically dex and drag
i feel a poins system needs to be doen for both

but we need to discuss in detial first and present a proper package for all

[roshan01]

^^^ so does this mean the show and shine part is no longer being considered??

maybe after were done with this we cud call out the other tuners
i.e the mitsu and the nissan guys...

[honda hoe]

honda hoe

k20 ITR

[X2]

Well I am way open for input on how it should be scored... but I really believe we should have a showoff and audio section... not everyone is into performance, but this is why we should meet and discuss. Maybe a prizegiving show and shine ?

I propose a date to start as late in the year so planning can be done properly... no rush ting... and also so people have a few months of heads up to get their rides in order. If things go off well, we can have an annual face off ?!!??!!

[Kinday]

Agreed X2. So a full 100 point system then

20 - show and style (paint, wheels, cosmetics, etc)
20 - ICE
20 - set up (performance modifications, swaps, build up, etc)
20 - performance discipline #1 - Solodex rules
20 - performance discipline #2 - Drag rules

Oh yeah....In my best Rob Schneider voice **We can do eet!!**

Competition late in the year is great. I can definitely foresee the other automotive brands wanting to be involved though.

[Zim]

Sounds good. Can't afford d drags an dex events, but ah go come and watch

[X2]

^^ Oh yes... good point Zim. There definitely will be an entrance fee involved as we won't be able to do a drag or dex portion without actually having to pay for the event facilities, etc...

We will know what costs/entrance fees will be as we plan along.

[SR]

Understandable, but we have to start with something... plus it should be fun and help unite the Honda community a bit more.
