My Integra DC2 completing an 8:22 BTG at the 'ring with me at the wheel. I've had this car 3 years and this time is my proudest achievement, I hope you enjoy the video. Hundreds of man hours and thousands of £s later. Next time, <8:20 :D
Thanks! I was at Spa Francorchamps a few days before also, but that was in the wet. Very challenging trackday.
So you could say VTEC kicked in several times. :D No for real, that’s nice. Also the Integra is a fine car.
Thanks! VTEC kicked in once or twice… I try to keep it in VTEC as much as possible but sometimes that would mean shifting mid corner which is a big no-no! :)
You know it’s a fast lap, when you are not overtaken once! Nicely done.
or just a very quiet day ;) did a 10:15 my self without any overtaking at al.
Damn, you’re every where ! As I asked you on facebook Honda Competition group, will you be at the Nürburgring for the Honda WTCC meet “Road to Redline” ? Nice lap !
Haha I just started using this :) Sorry I must have missed that! I have no plans to, I had heard about that but with taking a week off earlier in April, and a few days off at the end of the month for another track day I doubt work would be impressed! I’m most likely going to be going back in July. Are you going?
Shifting at >9000RPM. That’s awesome. Also, great shifting work. Really well set up car. thumbs up.
I love the sound of those shifts. Done so well, if one didn’t know any better, one would think it wea done with paddles :D
nice integra :) i love the bodywork and the engine sound tho
Thanks, the engine sound is something I love too. It is not loud on the outside, it only registers 91db on trackdays, but the induction roar is what makes it special!
Nice! Awesome car, good driver!
Will you try to get it under 8 minutes?
I have been thinking of aiming for sub 8. I think I would need another 50bhp and perhaps an open track. I’m thinking of doing a trackday there soon so perhaps. If I do watch out for the video :)
Well raced mate. Amazing composure and it’s very apparent that you know your car well. Was a great watch. You going Japfest? Would love to have a look at the car in person.
Cheers mate. Always nice reading comments like that! The car is quite difficult to drive but I do feel more and more confidence with it each time I’m on track. I might do but its not certain yet as I’m working a night shift just before! I’ll have to see if I can get track time :)
Very skillful driving mate! Also noticed that you were careful driving around other cars, even if it meant taking off a couple seconds. Very responsible, good driving - it’s nice to see someone driving a Honda right, maybe taking away some of the hate aimed at us Honda fans. Also, that’s a mad car!
When I as a domestic fan see someone drive a car right like this, it earns my respect.
First-big congratulations for this achievement and hope you get even better results next time! Second-Spa and the ring? Man you accomplished my biggest dream :D Nice car and excellent driving!!
Thanks mate, yeah my Spa video is on my YouTube channel too! It was raining most of the day though so it’s pretty much just a compilation of me sliding around corners :D
