I've had it since 1997, and have been racing it since 2000, gradually building it from a stock car up into what it is now. it's a '95 Honda Civic DX hatchback, with a LOT of mods. (K24 engine with a BW EFR7163 turbo, 6 sp manual trans, Hoosier 295-30-15 A7s up front (225-45-15 rear), homemade front splitter with diveplanes, complete flat bottom with rear diffuser and a sizable wing. on low boost it makes 450ish whp; high boost is close to 600 whp. weight with me in it is ~2400 lbs. she moves out pretty well; on low boost I did a 2:01.9 at VIR full course on a very hot day at the UTCC event 2019, and was having serious overheating / pulling timing so was probably 380-400ish whp level. on a decent day with the overheating solved this year I'm looking for a 1:58.x lap, which I'm pretty sure is doable. this car is a handful and you need to be on your game or it'll hurt you. (check out the lap below that's my 2:01.9 at the UTCC on saturday's Knock Out Race.).

I'm pretty sure I could break 2 mins with the ZLE bone stock at VIR, without all that much drama. I think, anyway..

I went 1:57.8 100% stock (stock pads, tires etc.) Very capable. Here you go:

went 1:57.4 on A7s - never got a perfect lap (got warm and i got burned on my first flyer - data suggests on A7s I should be mid 1:56s). Car otherwise stock save for A7s and Apex Wheels.
