Default New Member Here From my.is//

Hey Guys,

I am known as PREngineering over on my.is// and finally got around to making a Club Lexus account after 2 years. Thanks to Glenn on here I finally got off my *** and did it. So little information about my car. It started off as an 03' Sport Design 5-speed manual. I had everything except LSD, Nav, and heated seats, but in exchange I had the L-tuned suspension and rims. Since then it has changed a lot. Here is the list of current parts.

-Stance GR+ Coilovers
-Cobra Rims 17x9 +24mm
-MB Battles 18x9 +15mm
-Full Vertex bodykit (Minus the lip due to my lack of a JDM bumper)
-Custom metal front and rear fenders (+20mm wider then stock in the rear and about +60mm wider then stock in the rear)
-Greddy Evo 2 Exhaust
-TRD Front Underbrace
-TRD Rear Strutbar
-Tananbe Rear Underbrace
-Cusco Trunk Bar
-URAS Steering Angle Spacers

I had, but sold due to financial reasons:

-Injen Intake
-SPL Bucket Seat (Still have my ZEP Racing rails for when I get my new seat)

I live near San Mateo, but work over at Gokart Racer in Burlingame. I do both track events and drift events in my car when money permits. Enough talk pictures / videos explain the rest.

Here is my recent drift video:

Thanks guys and looking forward to going to all the meets Glenn talked to me about.

Welcome Joe !!

When you said you were going to sign up on CL you REALLY meant it !

Hope to NOW see you more often at meets, etc.

Take a look at the event schedule at the top for major activites throughout the summer.

Also take a look at the mini meet thread for the semi-weekly organized activities.

For some history on what's been going on, do an Advanced Search for EOS with my screen name or TAMR_GUS98.

Hope to see you again soon.

Do you go out to the Euro Sunday meets? I think we might have met before on highway 49 about a year or two ago.

I have only been to a couple meets. Another reason I have joined this forum is so I can get more involved with meets and pulling some together for Norcal at my Gokart place.
