I keep seeing it as a descriptor of a new class for the 20201 challenge. Thing is I have zero idea of WTF it might be?

Every time I see the word, this is the mental image

Basically, it's a series of car shows celebrating cars of the 80s and 90s. Think "Goodwood", but more radical. smiley

Question is, if my radwood last more than four hours, do I consult a doctor????

Your 5.0 volvo would fit well, keep the keys somewhere safe

Someone must bring a Corvette with a Greenwood kit. 

We also must have at least one car with a Tedterossa body kit.

Does an 89 951s. Count? 
 

Picked up the father and son challenge car today. The front body work came with it.  And my parts bins should fill out a lot of the rest of the missing parts. The interior is a biological experiment.

It's GenX/Millenials celebrating cars of their childhood like the Boomers (no negative connotation being implied) did with cars of the 60s and 70s throughout the early 2000s (like when the Hemi cars skyrocketed in value)

My first car was a 1990 Integra! It was great, and if I was younger, I'd want to own one. So much more analog then newer cars, light and fun, and super reliable and pretty good looking to boot.

Completely necessary if you want to decimate all.

In reply to Dave M :

My second car was a 90 integra Rs, base. First csr was HF 90 Civic hatch, 4 forward gears, no tach, no ac, no pass mirrors. 
 

 

my third car was a rare b17 93 Aztec green GSR loved that car. 
 

Bought a 2000 GSR sedan - recently - love it. That and my MR2 would be big hits at any radwood, but I have outgrown going to a parking lot and do circle jerks with other hipsters

In reply to mr2s2000elise :

My 2nd car was also a 90 Integra RS. Loved it when it was working properly, but it had recurring ignition problems that I lacked the skills and patience to diagnose properly at the time. "Integra GSR" may also appear in my Craigslist/FBM search history a few times recently...

Yeah I always wished I had the money for a GSR at the time...

My RS I bought for 3400$ with 108K miles. Sold it for 4800$ at 137K miles. Gave me 0 problems and I abused it more than a Vegas hooker. It even had a dealer installed (RS had no sunroof), moonroof, that was done by ASC, that did the tilt up and over when open (ala 92-95 civic EX coupe). Even received a ticket from a cop for modified tails, except the 90-91 Integra tails on teh top looked clear, unlike the 92-93 GSR I had which was orange. I had to fight it in court in Milipitas. There was a great forum called G2IC back then. 

In any event, I never liked the 94-00 cars, even with the type R. The front 4 eyed lights never did it for me.  But of course with many CRX/Si Hatch/S2000 (two of them), etc over the years, the "GSR" bug was dormant but never went away.  Recently when I found a 1 owner, all records, 0 modifications, 4 door GSR, in a very adult (yet departure from all my other very loud colored vehicles), I jumped on it.  Doing the shocks (koni Yellow ) this week. Very happy with it. Fantastic car, and I am happy with my 4 door all original GSR :)
