So I sanded and bolted back the parts that I could save on the Civic. They consist of the front fender, bumper and the doors.
I went to a junkyard and found a rolled over Civic, ready for parts. I took sideskirts and rear bumper. I also took the front bumper, but didn't fit it.

And I decided to sort out things with Dice Ridez today.
I went to meet Edward "Eddie" McDonald yesterday. He's their leader.
Much to my surprise, his car wasn't rice. As a matter of fact, it was a sexy orange Esprit.
He wanted to challenge me in a race, on E.V Raceway. I accepted.
I was in me Prelude. Now remember, this thing doesn't rev up to 12k RPM anymore, because it has a new engine.
And so, without further ado, we went to the race track, lined up.
AAaaaaand we're off!
He was leading at first, but I managed to keep up. He had built a tough race car for me to beat, and I've not raced the
Prelude with it's new engine for a long while.
Anyway, the race went on, there was quite a huge crowd surrounding us. I managed to overtake him when he spun out on a corner.
From there, I was leading.
Thanks to FWD, I managed to clear corners without worrying a lot about understeer or oversteer.
But there were moments that he was right on my tail.
Anyway, the race went on and on, three laps. There were moments that he overtook me
but really, I just overtook him again.
In the end, I managed to win.
Today, I check out UTM, and it looks like this race was a good reason for a cover...
They made a mistake though. It's not "12k RPM Prelude" anymore.
And is it me or are their front pages getting a little more simple?
Also, all of the customer cars are complete and are off the garage.
To do list before leaving East Valo:
Beat Bugatti brothers
Sort out things with Dice Ridez
Finish some cars that came in for tuning
Sort out things with a new challenger that appeared.
