type S???
fock that
thats like having a supermodelf gf and just playing with her fun bits and never reeeally experiencing fun
type R all the way, Jim had his set up like type R and it wasnt hard at all
its an utter shame they never brought the type R here or upgraded the hp with even a SC. If they did that Honda would have a 20 year old car still capable of kicking Ferrari, Lambo, and Porsche ass and all without having to release a new model
btw, 2nd gear is waaaaaaaaaaay too long on an NA1
way too long

SC will make 2nd gear a bit shorter...

I went through the other videos, but the ones in your car the mount was so high that you can't really see outside. Should have just held the camera. Oh well, next time.
youre back will be fine with soft stock seats, put in hard racing seats or type r seats and you bum is gonna hurt
but I hear you like that palmy
hahahah
You heard wrong.y
but I hear you like that palmy
How does the Diablo like grass?did you get any of my spins or off road trips??
Did you discover you own an additional mower?
:biggrin:
The problem with the Type R suspension is that the compression and rebound is set so stiff. My car has the same spring rate 600lb/500 but with JRZ double adjustable dampers. They were set on 7/9 front and 8/9 rear for compression and 6/12 front 8/12 rear for rebound. I can actually drive home on those settings and it's not bad at all on the street.

I will have to watch them all, not sure.
Dan took it off on the bottom of turn 8 what, twice? But both times it was the smart thing to do as he knew he was too hot for the turn and just took it straight off as there was nothing to hit there. 30' to the left was a guard rail.
That's how you learn. Making mistakes is a controlled environment. Hey, the NSX also mowed the lawn twice. Dan was in the right seat for one of them.
BTW: Mid Ohio isn't really that bad as far as walls, etc. There are some places where you just don't want to over drive it (Putnam is the same around turn 9-10 you just don't over do it there), but overall it's an extremely safe track. I have seen very few accidents there. Although, I did see a F430 completely totaled there... but I think it was a really bad driver who downshifted instead of upshifting and spun when the tires locked on the front straight. How do you screw up a shift on a F1 transmission with padel shifters???? Turns out it wasn't his car - it was his Dad's.

My uncle use to collect Can Am cars like this - they are cheap to MX because the mechanicals are all US parts that are still readily available, but they are temperamental. However, there is really not much too the cars as they are simple, no complicated electronics, etc.

Can Am cars rock!!! These cars were making 650hp+ in a 1600 lb. car in the early 60s.

thats a lil too much for a toy that would get very little use
how are Porsche 917s priced??
or maybe an Ultima GTR with an LS7 for like 40-50k
Porsche 917s are OUTRAGEOUS. But there is a guy in Detroit that is making race car replicas. Not kit cars, but exact replicas with updated engineering. Will see if I can find his webpage. They run about $80-100k turnkey. The story behind this is the guy retired from Ford as the head of the racing devision and was bored so he hired a bunch of retired Ford guys to make these.
kickass!!
any opinion on the Ford GT40 replicas (not the modern Ford GT)
a Mark 2 replica smoked my ass over 100 in a highway race once
no worries though, once I get less scared of the CGT and put a wing on it Ill track it
thats damn near a race car, hell it started out suposed to be a LeMans car
what kind of engine and tranny do you put in there??
They make replicas of...
The Lola T70
The Porsche 917
Ferrari P4
and of course....

Usually they use small block Ford V8 racing engines (NASCAR) with a 8,000 rpm and around 540hp. These are readily available from a lot of different engine builders and not too expensive to build out.
Imagine your Diablo with 1/2 the weight.

looks like a Ultima GTR replica
and why is there a rainbow sticker above the fender on the GT40??
palmy or kyles car perhaps?? lol
No Dan, mine has this in the rear window.
And the GT40 Replicas (Not the Ford GT), in my opinion are the hottest things in the world. I'd love to have one. It's in my someday plans.

These guys are located right here in Cincy. I'm sure I'd try to find one used.
