Inaugural Integra Type R Race Weekend

After months of preparation the Inaugural Integra Type R Race weekend was upon us. We targeted the Feb 8th-9th, 2020 SCCA Central Florida Regional at Sebring International Raceway that featured an Enduro and Sprint Racing for the weekend festivities. With only about an hour of run time on the car since completion modest expectations were set to use the weekend more of a test sessions to get back in the swing of things more than anything else. The car received its SCCA Club racing log book the week of the event to ensure no surprises when we arrived at the...

My People: #UserNotCollector 2000 Integra Type R

#UserNotCollector is a term I have been using lately as I very much find things to be tools to perform a job and if they aren't being used in the way they were intended than what is the purpose of owning it. I look at cars like this. Several people have voiced their irritation over my turning a perfectly good Integra Type R into a race car as the values of them continue to climb but ultimately it is just a car. It is a car that Acura built as their pinnacle FWD sport compact performance car of the time...

Integra Type R Race Car Interior

Work is coming along on the Acura Integra Type R Road Race car project. Looking at having this as a long term race car has made some decisions harder than others in the sense that the goal is to do it right the first time and have it last for years to come. Interior paint options on race cars are always difficult and it is a job that no one wants to do. After prepping and priming we decided to stick with a Honda theme and chose the Honda Polished Grey Metallic paint color throughout the interior. In house constructor...

Acura Integra Type R Race Car Build

I find myself loving the build process of a new car every time I do it. I know it makes no sense to ever build a race car from scratch when you can get so much value for your money by purchasing a pre-raced car and configure it for your needs but there is something satisfying to me to take an idea and go through the project phase to completion. (Even though it is an utterly frustrating process at times and always over budget) I grew up around all the Golden Era Honda’s (1980s-1990s) and as a graduation present from...

A Man, A Car, A Track Day

We have done well here at IPG and occasionally we get caught up in what we do have here at the shop available to us and forget how much fun keeping things simple is. When it comes to our race cars we try and run by the Keep It Simple Stupid mentality. It works for us. Our agenda consists of laying out a plan and going step by step to meet our next goal. Once there we reassess and work towards a new goal. This leads me to the source of this blog and it involves my personal 1998 Integra...
