    Anyone race an NSX in IT or showroom stock?

    thanks for the answers guys, it looks like I will continue to rent a ride until I can get the NSX sold. I would really prefer to race something more expendable than the NSX. I can rent a spec miata for a fraction of what Skippy costs, guess I'll do that until a buy a car... Donnie, pm me if...

    Why did you buy an NSX?

    I first saw pictures of the NSX in a car magazine in 1990, it was blue. I saw my first one in the flesh in 1991 at a dealer in Des Moines when my buddie's dad picked up his Legend. It was black and looked like Darth Vader's car. Had to have one ever since. I bought my first NSX in '99, a...

    Taking the NSX out next month to the track...first time

    The only modification an NSX needs for track use is upgraded fluid and pads. Without these, you will find your day frustrating. I have used Motul RBF 600 and Carbotech 503, 504 pads on my infrequently tracked NSX and have been satisfied w/ the cars braking ability. I have tried to track...

    Anyone race an NSX in IT or showroom stock?

    OK, I am getting no interest in my cherry but high mileage NSX. My original intent has been to sell it and get a Spec Miata or an ITA car. However, I am thinking about racing the NSX wheel to wheel. Has anyone here raced an NSX w/ only the necessary safety mods and otherwise basically stock?

    Skip Barber vs. Jim Russell ???

    good choice, I've thoroughly enjoyed my time there and made a lot of great friends... Another aspect of the 2 is the cars, while the JR cars are far superior, any crash damage will just kill you financially (CF monocoque). The SB cars are antiquated by comparison but are quite robust and...

    From stock to track car...10k USD to spend

    truer words have never been spoken. ask me how I know. if you insist on modifying your street car for serious track use, safety equipment will gobble up your $10 K budget quickly. Full cage, proper seats and harnesses, electric and fuel cut-offs. I assume you have a nomex suit and...

    2004 Silverstone/black targa, JH4NA21644S000013

    VIN JH4NA21644S000013. 105,300 miles. 2nd owner. I purchased this car less than 1 year ago and am selling it to purchase a racecar. I bought it w/ 17/18 Volk GT-C's, aftermarket exhaust (dunno which one but it sounds good), Kenwood stereo, dark window tint. I have replaced the clutch plus...

    NSX vs The Rest of The World

    A bit much Corvette bashing for my taste...but I agree w/ many of your observations. As an instructor for HPDE's, I've had the opportunity to ride along or drive many cars, most recently the GT-R (sadly as passenger only in that one). The best thing about the NSX is the seating position and...

    Great News Concerning the Next NSX!

    I respectfully disagree. The LF-A will be a gigantic loss-leader for Toyota because of poor sales. People simply are not going to cross-shop the LF-A and front-engined Ferrari GT's. The GT-R however is priced well and will sell well but will be a loss-leader for Nissan as it probably costs...

    Are you getting the H1N1 shot?

    She absolutely should get the dead vaccine (injection). You are probably only eligible for the live/attenuated vaccine (nasal), I'd hesitate to get that if I didn't have to.

    Are you getting the H1N1 shot?

    just got mine, am not allowed to decline it due to job (front-line patient care). Got the seasonal flu shot 4 weeks ago. I've never become ill from the seasonal flu shot and never had Influenza. I'll let you all know if I get sick from this one... hope not, got a couple hot dates lined...

    S2000 over NSX as a Honda Classic?

    I agree w/ Cameron, eventually we will see an original, low-mileage, unmolested Zanardi bring >$65 K at Barrett-Jackson. S2000's are too common to be collectable. Original Skyline GTR's will command big $ as well.
