What up Honda Tech people...

I know many of you who will be posting in this thread, but for those of you who dont know who I am, heres a rundown.

1. I am from the south east, and have had my hands in over 20 large meets down south over the years.
2. I am one of the planners of the Eibach meet, alongside Vtecvoodoo and Rodrez.
3. I was one of the original planners of some of the 1st ATL meets and Nashville meets.
4. I am a freelance photographer and I work with Source Interlink (import tuner, honda tuning, modifed, etc.) among other companies on import publications.
5. I am a monthly columnist for Honda Tuning Magazine, and I also help blogging for S3 Magazine.
6. I am a spokesperson for a new clothing line called Gadget Import, based out of NYC.
7. Big ups to EM1 Crew!!!

I travel to a lot of events each year to gather pictures for publications, as well as to hang with people in the industry. I decided last year to make a tour where I campaigned a car around with me to these events. Now with a few tour's out there, I had to make my mark and be a tad different than the others, I wanted to drive it all instead of trailer it. So, I am bringing it all back to the streets. This is not a magazine build, this is not a show build, it is an expression almost. I plan to take this car all around the country and party it up. You will see me at local hangout spots wherever I go. If there's something going on at a local burger joint while im in town, you'll probably see me out there hanging out and chilling with everyone. The goal is to just hang out and show people products, along with what fun a tour can be. I want to show people what these parts do, and that you can use these parts for more than a race car, along with why someone would even want to do some of this.

Tour Stop Dates
Daniel Mercer Memorial Nashville Run (July 24) Carolinas-Nashville (Official Leg - IA backed)
Import Alliance 2009 (July 25-26) Nashville Motor Speedway/Nashville-Tennessee
SuperDRAG Upper US Run (Starts July 28) Nashville-Salt Lake City (Official Leg)
Mfactory Drag Shootout (@RMR) (July 31-August 1) Utah
Battle of the Imports (August 9) Sacramento-California (Possible)
Nisei Week Showoff (August 15) Downtown LA-California
Adding more dates over the next few weeks...

-During the time I am in town for these events, I will be going to local shops and "spots" just to get a feel for how things go there. I will be getting a lot of video coverage for my Youtube channel, along with sharing some videos with my close affiliates NYCE1s.com, whom I will be working with a lot over the next 8 months. I will explain more about the video as I go...

More dates will be added to the list above

I am happy to have a few partners behind me who feel the same way I do about taking things back to the streets, and how promoting their products will change in 2009. These folks include:
Sponsors/Partners
1. Gadget Import (Corporate Partner - clothing company - from the famed Donwan Harrell/Akademics Clothing - Media Outlet)
2. Skunk2 (Title Sponsorshp - Full parts list)
3. Whoopeedoo Racing (Platinum Sponsorship - Gearset, LSD, Final Drive, Transmission Build and testing)
4. JDMspeedworx (Platinum Sponsorship - JDM parts importer)
5. Mfactory (Platinum Sponsorship - Transmission Parts supplier)
6. Hasport (Gold Sponsorship - Swap parts supplier) (added 4-20-09)
7. B.A.S.F. (Gold Sponsorship - Paint supplier)
8. Competition Clutch (Gold Sponsorship - Clutch and Flywheel specialist)
9. Go-PWR Motorsports (Gold Sponsorship - Connecting Rods, Thermal Gaskets)
10. Weisco Performance Products (Gold Sponsorship - Pistons)
11. AMSOIL (Gold Sponsorship - Performance Lubricants & Fluids)
12. Rywire (Gold Sponsorship - Custom Engine Harness)
13. Hondata (Gold Sponsorship - Custom Engine Management System)
14. Drive Shaft Shop (Gold Sponsorship - Custom Drivetrain Components)

Stay tuned to this thread. I will be adding pictures of stuff I have, along with parts pictures and more. I will TRY keep a base on this page showing what pictures are on which page, but I am busy most of the time so this will be a hard task. I invite all of you to join me, as I am like a kid in a candy shop with how I will treat this 2009 project! And while im along the tour, I invite you all to come join me to hang, eat, whatever! If I am gonna be passing through your area, ride with me some on the highway or whatever, we will get some video. Just looking to use this stuff these companies give me for something besides sitting at a show. If it makes it hard for you to enjoy this thread because these companies support me, too bad. It happens!

bwhaha. (I'm the guy standing by the trans for those reading).

Some of the parts I'll be using in Ben transmission build.

MFactory K20 LSD, first in the country.

Then this...

The contents.... MFactory K20A prototype 1-6 close gear set.

Thanks to MFactory for making some great products as always. Thanks to Ben for including me in the tour. Literally, I'll be riding from Nashville to Utah/Cali/etc with him.

Pics of the trans buildup to come soon.
