That's right, I won First place at the NOPI SouthEast Nationals this past weekend in Bristol, TN. This was the first NOPI show that I've seen have an RX-8/RX-7 field of it's own, they still don't have a best Rotary engine class, even though they have one for all the others. But luckily that morning we had just finished puting in my new Borla exhaust and a custom fiberglass set up, that runs from the bottom of where the trunk access compartment was, in between the rear seats, to the rear windshield, in between the two Bose speakers. whish contains one 8" Kicker CVR sub between the rear seats and another in between the rear Bose speakers powered by a 900 watt punch amp. DailD, NOPI street magazine, and NOPI.com all came by before the awards ceremony and took lots of pictures and said that I would have a spot in their magazines. NOPI Tunervisions NEW playmate host, crew, and camera men even came by and did a segment with me which should air 4 weeks from tomorrows opener episode ( which I was also at that show but I was just stock). So many people loved the car, judges came by and brought more gudges by they were all around it. Some of FISHMAN's (from Florida) crew came and checked out the car and gave their compliments, they ere showing this tricked out Celica done by FISHMAN. Anyway this was my first car show WIN and I was really excited and just had to tell the club about how cool it was. So be on the look out on tonorrows episode of NOPI Tunervision which airs at 7:30 Eastern on SPEED Channel and the fourth episode four weeks from now. I've got a RX-8 club.com decal on the car so I'm representin'. I'll load some pics from the show along with som photos of my new sub setup, tomorrow.

 

congrats. i dunno what nopi is, tried going to the site, doesnt work. but nice job.

 

Thats awsome. Nopi is hard to win usually..I dont know about how big their class is that you're in...but never the less, that is awsome. Congrats!

 

NOPI is the Number One Products Inc. Fast & the Furious Racing & Car show series. It's become one of the biggest and most popular car and drag racing series. Watch the season premiere of NOPI tunervision tomorrow and you will see what I'm talking about. The host is even a Playmate.

 

post pics now.

playmate or car.... doesn't matter.

 

I've got to get them from my friends camera so just hold on.

 

congrats on the win
we all know it isnt easy winning any place alone 1st place against
guys who live to spend thousands into their car.but you have done it.
btw is your car the one with the racing license plate phrase ?
nice represent

 

picssssssssssssssssss.

 

congrats for winning but if you put are putting so much time and money into your car why are you using cheap audio equipment?

 

I would love to see some pics of your system setup

 

IF you meqan the "Hell yes I street race" plate that's me.

What's wrong with my audio equipment, it gets the job done. I don't enter in audio contest. I'd rather spend the same money on the engine, exterior, or interior looks. Like I had an expensive custom fiberglass setup in the interior for these subs, if I had spent $500 dollars on each sub I wouldn't have the money to do the setup. This car is my private, everyday driveing car. If it were a strict show car and spent it's life in a trailer and I had some sponsers I would have spent more. But since it's an everyday driver it get the job done for me.
And thanks for all the congrats guys. I'll have the pics loaded tomorrow.
Plus on Thursday I'm getting the car dyno'd after my K&N, Borla, and re-flash. To see how much I'm putting out.

 

Congrats.

 

some photos of my car from the show, me, then my friend with these girls from the show.

 

Is that WinningBlue?

 

and the sub setup

 

yes, it is

 

Congratulations on winning dude. Sure NOPI should have its seed wiped from the earth, but hey, you won. I've never won anything in my life. Now I'm sad .

 

thats a real cool and unique sub set-up man, nice job

English do you have some sort of problem or something, oh yeah that's jealousy.

 

G'dyup Horse....I got no issues with you. I just saw your buddy and thought...tool. The idea of the toolbag kinda blossomed from there. I deleted my posts, but will put them back if you can deal with 'em. Enjoy your ride. I certainly do enjoy mine.

 

sorry, I didn't mean to seem like a thin-skin jerk. It just sounded like you were bombing on me for posting the pics of the car. It's all in fun.

 

congrats
I want a trophy

 

I saw that episode the other night, even ran it back through TiVo..., never saw your 8. I might have missed it, but it wasn't featured. But I will look for it on the upcoming episode. Nice pics, your car looks real good!

 

Yeah at the opener in Virginia Iwas still stock and ddin't get much attention. The guy with the suicide hood on the eclipse was right beside me. But it's the fourth episode to be aired that I'm suppost to be in.
