It's excellent having a coach, I learnt so much in just one day by having a great coach. More than I could really process in a day and I realised how much I needed to improve!
First few sessions I'd be happy with 1:16-17 and then work down to 1:13's. Is it just your first time with this car or first time overall to Wakefield?
I posted this in another CTR thread already, but I have been fortunate to tag along for 2 road tests (big me!) and I can tell you they do not go easy on the cars. They keep working on the car and...
That's not a piggyback ECU in the traditional sense... I'd be careful about continuing to push that line, otherwise the posts will start flying! (sorry that sounds like a threat, I mean that this has...
That is the normal scenario isn't it? I still don't quite get the UK to AU pricing for CTR. I guess to remain competitive with FN2R they had to cut a deal with Honda UK because the GT version is...
Well that writes off a bog stock 99-01 R34 being sub 8 minutes. There is no way it is the equal of a MK1 GT3. But yes the R34 would still be great fun.
I read the TOVA articles and the reasoning there is "The Civic Type-R is only the beginning and if it succeeds, it will lead to more such desirable models for Malaysia and elsewhere...
They are not old days. The days still exist of us who want a Track car from the factory, which Honda used to provide.
"Honda Australia managing director and CEO Yasuhide Mizuno told Wheels. “I...
I call BS on a 14.1 from a stock FN2 until proven otherwise. How can a car that is 165kg heavier than a DC5R, with slightly shorter gearing and marginally more torque be faster?
I think most of us would find it hard to replicate the times the journo's pull when testing. Having been fortunate to be on two road-tests, none of the non-journo's could pull times matching the...
So the facts I was stating show it to be more of a Road Car, rather than a Type R, and I'm supporting it somehow? Wouldn't that show I'm demonstrating it's a road car, not a track car? :thumbdwn:
Marketing alert... just like the Honda video with FN2 versus EP3, where the FN2 appears to be whipping the EP3 easily through corners. On the track you generally pull away very slowly from similar...
