Hey Guys,
As the title says, do anyone take their jazz to Track and how do they perform on Track? Can jazz be made into Track friendly??
i think "tony" from Brisbane
Yes! i heard Tony race his Jazz in Queesland Racing Track, Brisbane!
And i heard someone said he won Type R!!!!!! but really not sure the info is correct or not!!!
lol
all depends on driver
track day organise by HK ppl
an echo won typeR as well and SpecR Jazz as well
I ageed with TypeG. I used to go to Qld Racyway with Tony with my Jazz. But he kicked my ass.... so I guess its a depends on skills. However, I think its also depends on other factors such as tyres, brakes on his and the other racer's car.:D (Tony has always had better tyres and brake than me (what an excuse...:D ) :cool: ).Quote:

Have you guy watched the Hot Version VTEC Club Vol. 1?? They said because of Jazz's strong chasis, it has a great potential to be used as a pure sport car :thumbsup: .

They were filmed back in January and March this year though coz my DV has been stolen after a race event in March :(
So far, I have beaten some Civic Vti-R(on slick tyres), WRX, Skyline Gts-t, Altezza(on slick tyres), Integra Type R(on slicks), 300ZX, stripped 1.6 Alfa Romeo(on slicks), BMW 325i, stripped AE86(roll cage and slicks), Accord Euro.. and more.. so I guess if you have prepared your car well for track racing, the Jazz is still very competitive. :thumbsup:
i'm interested in watching your videos..
also..what mods have you done to your jazz??
yes.... video please.... thanx in advance...
Let me answer this question (if u don't mind tony :wave: ).Quote:

I'm interested to see how the Jazz goes on the race track... but I don't know if it is such a good idea because I just got new tyres put into the car and im stingy at the moment.... Oh well... maybe some day :)
What sort of times are we talking about at QR? and on which course.
was it either 61sec or 66secs, not sure which track. I think that 61sec was centrax type-r
I did 65.005 seconds on the sprint track, and I'm still using stock suspension and stock intake/exhaust, plus there's a heavy ass sound system at the back of the car too (3 amps, 0 gauge and 2 gauge cables all the way, dunno how much it weights but it's damn heavy..)Quote:

Hey Tony! Does your Jazz still have the drum brake at the rear? In my opinion, rear brake is really not enough for any track, hence poor track time! I'm thinking of getting a jazz, which can run at tracks! Therefore any good advise for me?
so your saying tony's track time is poor?Quote:

well theory and practice is like comparing apples and orangesQuote:

yes, he is still using drum brake on track:honda:Quote:

I will be heading to WSID for some quarter mile runs in the new year once I get a few more things sorted, and I will be heading down to Wakefield for a run when I can tag along with the Bel Garage guys
how much are better "shoes" normally?
LOL
Tony use it for track but never mean to be seriously on it or having a really good result
it is all depends how serious you are and what is yr further mod.
if u said u will get fully modify or even turbo kit, u NEED it
if normal exhuast and rims like Jus did, front one with good pads will do
Do a search on this topic is the best way coz some people still dun think rear disc is better than drum
