A friend of mine agreed, we would never be able to drive our cars there. But yet I saw a shitload of lowered honda's and mitsu's. How the hell do you do it?
One thing that did get to me was how EVERYONE drove a "hooked up" car there. I mean I went to Salinas, a friggin town with a population of like 10,000 and even there I swear I couldn't go a minute without seeing someone try to pimp something out. Even if they just had a cheap system and hubs. Over here we have a mix of normal ppl to ppl who pimp but shit, even Miami doesn't even compare to VAST majority of ppl trying to pimp whatever. It was kind of cool tho cause everywhere I went, I kind of felt I had something in common with them.

Ha ha, we get to manage our roads .Its a thing of getting used to it and entering at the right angle. Yeah we do have lowered compacts(alot), mine is lowered and at first i hit constantlly the ground but now i barelly touch it cause i know(as the other ppl with lowered cars) exactlly how to take the road.
Man if you think we have bad roads you should go to Jamaica.You wouldn't drive you car in P.R. as i wouldn't even try to drive mine in Jamaican roads he he..
Probably the reason you saw so many hooked up cars at Salinas is beacuse there is where the Salinas SPEEDWAY track is. One of thw 2 most imp and crowded tracks in P.R.. Now that you mention all the hooked up cars there are in P.R. its sad that we don't have too many import car shows(just classic old car shows)
The mirage in Puerto Rico is like the "Ombligo" in a person.Everyone and their mother has one he he he..Curentlly Hondas and Mirages are the biggest enemies down here.If you get inot a light beside a mirage its almost shure that youre going to have "the looks" by each driver and its almost a sure race. We even have at the track Mitsu Vs. Honda exclusive events.

But I could tell you one thing I noticed, the Mirage is the puerto rican civic  I even got to see the cream of the rican crop, old but fully restored toyotas with 3 rotor swaps and BIG ASS slicks in the back, I love PR

He he i guess you saw alot of "bone stock looking" CRX's..he he. If you find one on the street your dead meat. Almost all of them are sleepers with lots of things under the hood he he..I would better race an integra than a crx LOL...I wouldn't lost by too much with the teg he he...I have a friend that had a TurboII RX7 and he got smoked pretty bad by a stock looking REX...
