My brother and I have had 2 full seasons between SCCA-Chicago, SCCA-Milwaukee, TSSCC and other misc. clubs. Car had two SCCA DS National Championships under its belt.
We planned on retiring it from chasing cones duty this year, but not like this

2001 Acura Integra Type-R
- black
- 97k miles,
- front seat have a 1-3" tear in them each,
- rear seats should be pretty fade free (i had a cloth on them since I bought the car to help keep them clean from all junk that gets on auto-x tires etc),
- right front blinker is cracked and has some small holes drilled at the bottom of it to help drain water (ghetto, I know, but never had the money to replace it with a new one),
- right headlight slightly faded from age (replaced after a remote start incident of '05),
- there's a dent in the rocker panel behind the left front wheel - it's pretty large for that spot and very unique (not sure how the previous owner managed to make it since the paint wasn't damaged),
- the hood has some small hail damage (stupid hail!),
- there's a rock chip on the windshield - lower part of it, about center of the windshield (the window was replaced at some point and has a tint strip maybe 3" tall up top by the rear view mirror),
- car was on black steelies with winter tires on them, no hub caps,
- no ITR stickers on the body,
- red Acura emblems were replaced with black ones,
- stock wing on the back,
- left rear quarter panel was repainted after I was T-boned by an uninsured idiot who ran a red light 2 years ago a month before Nationals,

If anyone has any info on "hot" ITR parts or general knowledge of my car, please feel free to post here, PM me or send me an e-mail at bartekb93 AT yahoo DOT com. I'm not holding my breath on finding it sound and safe (usually a shell is all that's left 24-36 hours after one is stolen), but any help be appreciated.
