 The Florida Citrus Region PCA HPDE event in February at Roebling Road Raceway is an event I have attended several times over the years and it is always a good time. This year I was able to take the Integra Type R to the track for the first time. Saturday ended up being wet all day which in hindsight was a great learning opportunity for car setup. Sunday had drying conditions and ended up giving me a couple of full dry sessions on track to cap off the weekend. So with a wet track what did I change for...

We all know it wouldn't take long for the S2000 to hit the track and see what is capable of. I have been a long proponent and supporter of how great stock cars are from the factory. A lot of times the best way to enjoy whatever car it is that you own is in its oem configuration. Reliability, ease of use and overall enjoyability are words that come to mind when you can take a car as the manufacturer designed and produced it and use it as it was meant to be used. The 2004 Honda S2000 is the...

For the last couple of months we have been on the hunt for a new project street car to have around the shop and recently we landed on a solid candidate. I was open minded when it came to what platform we ended up with and looked at everything from C6 Corvettes to Porsche Caymans to Audi RS3's and everything in between but it is hard to get away from our Honda roots. Recently this 2004 Honda S2000 popped up for sale from another enthusiast and it ticked all the right boxes for us. A modifiable chassis, the right price...
2017+ Honda Civic Type R Suspension - Good, Better, Best

The 17+ Honda Civic Type R (FK8) had a reputation that preceded it. Anything with a Type R nomenclature from Honda is expected to be brilliant and after a couple of years of the car being on the market it seems the FK8 is living up to the hype. Mechanically it is a modern marvel. Honda continues to throw its name in the ring of being able to build the best handling FWD cars that have ever existed. Aesthetically you can still find a spirited conversation wherever you are going both ways on the looks but as a brute force...
Track Day - Sebring and Daytona

The 2001 Acura Integra LS is still kicking around. With just over 6,900 miles on the odometer we continue to use it as an all around fun car. From running errands around town to some recent track days at the Sebring Short Course and Daytona Intl Raceway it continues to be a joy to own. Since our last update we have made some changes to the car. After the high end coilover testing with the Koni 3011 Series shocks and Eibach stiffer spring rates that car ended up not being as much fun to drive around on the street as...
