» MOTM |
Here at AZMC, we would like to recognize 09Factor, Dave as our April MOTM.
Dave joined the club back in early 2005 and has been witness to the clubs dynamic changes over the years. He says he has only been really active since early 2007.
Dave drives a 2004 Lighting Yellow RX-8. When asked about his mods, he replied with “It only stayed stock for 9 months. The first mod was the Tein springs with gave better handling and nice aggressive raked stance. Then came the intake, shocks, sways......a child, and then the turbo.”
Some of the more notable mods are as follows:
-Falken Circut Spec 18x8 wheels
-Tokico D-Specs shocks, Tein S-Tech springs
-Greddy RX-8 Turbo kit.
-Cobb AccessPORT
-HKS Hi-Power exhaust, catless
-BHR AT Radiator
-Turblown H2O/Meth kit
Some of Dave’s most memorable events are the early 2006 Tortilla flats run of 28-30 cars, and hitting up Buffalo Wild Wings for beer afterward, and the "stabbing" event at Chickenwafers mod meet. “Watching that knife bounce off the floor… Great times.”
As with most people, Dave has been very involved with the club. The thing that draws him to the club most is the depth of the club members. “All walks of everything blending very well together and having fun while doing it.”
Thank you Dave for being part of the crew!!!
