CURRENTLY: got the front end back on, but im gonna get a different hood, and mess with the gaps. Need to clean up all the adhesives from the trim, find a body shop, and go from there on how much of the prep work im gonna do. Slowly but surely.
I wrecked the Avenger too. Dont believe it? BELIEVE IT!
Damn those things look good on there! too bad my front end is still wrecked!

MESSAGE TO ALL MY ALLPAR FRIENDS (and a few from other forums who may remember me): I'm still around, just not on forums so much. In December 04 i made a decision that being online, and especially on forums/IM'ing, was taking up too much of my time, and enabling some of the facets of myself that i liked the least, so i decided to go cold turkey. Now, i read SOME forums a LITTLE, but i try to keep it to only researching something im specifically interested in. I've been looking at Maxima and 7th Gen Accord stuff recently since a good friend has some max's and i recently raced a new accord in the Intrepid, but thats about it. I've been trying to get in touch with some of the people i used to talk to, through email. My email is Vigo327@swbell.net for anyone interested in talking to me. I still have a lot of interest/plans for the Dynasty, but here's some backstory: In november 04 iirc, i slid it into a curb and messed up the front suspension, tore open the pans, bent the front a little, etc. I got my aries running shortly thereafter and mostly drove that while i slowly fixed/upgraded the Dynasty. Most of my mods went on it in 05, and towards the end of 05 i was pretty much done fixing it, down to good tires and getting it aligned. Im driving it to work now, and have some mods coming in a couple paychecks. So long story short, i still have it, still love it, just hadnt been driving it cuz ive had other cars to play with so i took my time. Anyway, my income is improving so keep checking back, my plan is to get most of my car plans done, and buy a house with my wonderful girl by the end of this year, so lots of car stuff will probly happen in the next couple months. Thanks!

Next Mods:
Gears, Torque Converter, and 3.8 swap. ALL MIX-AND-MATCH OEM PARTS OF COURSE! lol. Here's a good rhetorical question: How much can you modify a k-car with bolt on OE parts?
Here's another funny question: How many Aftermarket performance parts do i have on my car? ....2 (kybs and k&n)

Autocross pictures dont reflect current setup. All of them show the car with stock suspension.
Oddly though, i probly couldn't do as well right now with my suspension cuz i'm on freebie BFGoodrich Touring T/A's/ :(

Here's some random old pics for you to enjoy:
EAT THIS!! 0-60 8.00, 1/4 mile 16.28 at 84!
^^^ STOCK ^^^
Average run 16.45.
Doesn't sound like much, but it's more than people expect. enough to embarass all manner of cars. Since i was about 17 when i got this car, its seen a ridiculous amount of street racing action, and strangely, there were only a few losses.
The moral of this story is that there are a lot of people on the road who haven't put a lot of thought into how embarassing it would be to lose to a stock Dodge Dynasty, and how it would be even worse if their car had stickers, a bodykit, huge rims, was slammed, had VTEC, was jacked up all stupid in the back 80's poser-style, was a mustang with the wrong number of cylinders or a stock 84 gt 5.0, or was a huge ass truck/suv. Granted, i've also raced some real nice-looking cars that probly got faster the day after they lost to me, but comeon, guys.
Now i rarely street race in any of my cars, unless i'm really curious about how things will stack up against a particular car.
Besides, i wouldn't want to distract these guys from their important work NOT stopping violent crime and abuse just so they could assess new and exciting forms of taxation without representation against a citizen who poses no particular threat to anything but ill-deserved and government-bankrolled notions of entitlement and authority to fuck with people for a living.
anywho..
I just realized that there's a bit of information absent on my page. (stock) TOP SPEED. Well, here it is: 120+MPH.
Speedo runs out of numbers at 120.. Thats as much as i know without a tach. heheheh.
