Well, I was referred to thisforum by SCmitsuchic and after being an Administrator/Moderator on other forums, I know the rules pretty well. I have a pretty extensive background in the DSM world. My first DSM was a ’97 Monarch Green Pearl GST, bought brand new with 69 miles. Named it Miranda and built it for the track and eventually became one of Pioneer Electronics demo cars in ’98. Crazy how that works. A girl pulled out in traffic in front of me and Miranda was totaled. Lost my full sponsorship and bought another brand new ’99 Monarch Green Pearl GST(scrambling before the 3G came out). Named her Kylie and is still running strong. She’s daily driven(my only car), taken to the track very frequently and go on roadtrips often. Kylie just reached 79,000 miles (only because she was garage kept for 4 years…long story short – I moved and came back). Soon she'll be on Forced Performance Customer Gallery, as I support them highly along with JESTR Tuning.[/align][/align][/align][/align]
[/align][/align][/align][/align][/align][/align][/align][/align][/align]My girlfriend also has a’98 Monarch Green Pearl GST Spyder.We named her Caryn(pronounced like the girl in the movie Big Daddy) and only has 62,000 miles. She too drives her DSM everyday to school, work, and all the roadtrips we take.[/align][/align][/align][/align]
[/align][/align][/align][/align]I fly outto the DSM/EVO Shootoutannually and this year, my girlfriend and I are planning on RV'ing and bringingBOTH DSM’s toNorwalk, Ohio.






Under 4G63hp.com I held one of the most successful Regional DSM Meets in the southeasttwo years ago. A task accomplished with EVO/DSM enthusiasts traveling as far as Alabama, Tennessee, and the Carolinas.
[/align]Last weekend, I set up the second Southeast Regional DSM/EVO Meet and was highly successful. I will have pictures to share soon as I'm filtering through +700 pictures to show.

Lindsey, my girlfriend, is on DSMFemme if you wanna chat with her. I was an Administrator on 4G63hp.com with almost two thousand posts and left with good intentions. I’m also close with a lot of the guys on the Orlando DSM boards. I call www.dsmpurity.commy home and love to extend my help out to anyone that may need assistance. I also sell HID kits if anyone is interested as well.

wow ernie.. that christmas pic is incredible!! I'm sooo jealous! Holy cow!! I'm glad ya came to this forum! These are good guys! I had sooo much fun with your crew! Can't wait for May!!

 

WTF I want there to be a Northwest meet. grrr, anybody know of one in oergon/washington area?

 

I usually hate green eclipses, but i gotta say both you and your girls eclipse look awsome. Again welcome to the forums.

 

I wish I coulda come and hung out with you guys : (

I hope you stick around! Welcome!

 

Welcome ernie. The new wheels are hot.

 

Welcome

 

Steph's the best! Nice 2g man, except it could use a set of racing seats and harnesses to compliment that interior.

 

Nice ride man, welcome.

 

Harnesses? I had the MOMO 1-piece race seats with the full carbon fiber shell for 3 years. It was awesome road course racing as you truly didn’t move and the helmet always stayed within tolerance, but for daily driving it absolutely sucked. I didn’t have the generic two-piece (show seats), and everytime I had to go through a drive-thru to get food, or the ATM, I had to get out of the car to get to my wallet because the seats are form fitted to your @ss. I tried keeping my wallet out, but would forget it in the car when I would be out. It’s truly a pain in the ***, and considering I only race about 15 weeks of a 52 week year, I sold them and put the stock seats back in. I rode out with them for 3 years because that’s the length of an FIA certification. Strapped down, you don’t move in the OEM seats anyhow. I don’t have the helmet guide off the seats, but do have better peripherals. Do you do any racing? I love it and can’t wait to hit the track next month!




Rob! How are you?!? Are you still running the show on Team 2G? I’ve lost track of the boys and do miss a lot of you there. I’m glad you found me here! Kylie AND Caryn’s come along way since I moved on to Purity. Stay in touch!

Someone asked about the mods on both girls on my other thread, so I figure I’d post it here on my INTRO…
