Lots of great info in this thread and I'm just taking it all in. As we all get more track time at a lot of these places, we probably should create a sticky for that track and some lessons learned.

I'm running with the rear windows up but front windows down. Thanks for that tip! I'll definitely do that on my next track day.

The Grand Course seems to just kill my momentum after the back straight headed into T13. It just feels like a buzz kill. The full course requires some braking after the back straight but I still maintain some speed before getting back to the front straight. It just keeps the momentum and...

I really gotta get better at responding. I'm so used to being on Reddit and FB. At any rate, I had a blast at VIR on Monday. I trailered* my car down there, which worked out as I saved some hotel room money and slept in my tow vehicle / conversion van. My best time was 2:17 on the full...

I haven't had much time to post lately but I'm headed by to VIR on Monday but this time I'll be on the full course instead of the Grand. I've ditched my Pilot Sport 4S tires for Cup 2's so I'm looking forward to being able to get more hot laps in compared to the OEM tires. The stock PS4S's are...

Sorry to bump up this thread but it's been a while. I'm considering springs as well but have decided to keep the stock height for now until more data is available, and we see what comes out of the HRC catalog.

I think I may be able to swing both if my work schedule permits. I'll make a separate thread for both events to see if we can garner some interest. The Trackdaze event should be a good one, and the weather will likely be better since it's late October.

Lots of good discussion here and I'm soaking it all in. btrip, awesome that you were able to get your car dialed in! For the east coast guys, if we can get enough of us together, I'd love to put something together for a track event. We could crash Ken Kirkham's Track Days at VIR in October...

I don't have much to offer as it relates to OP's situation, but I can't help but echo what optronix said above. Trying to morph the ITS into a track monster is an exercise in futility, as the car is setup pretty well out the box anyway. The moment you start adding aftermarket parts, you...

**PFA** I'll be at Road Atlanta on 26 June for Ken Kirkham's Track Days Fun Run if anyone's interested. The event runs for two days but unfortunately, I can't make it on the 25th. I haven't been to Ken Kirkham events in the past but I've heard nothing but good things about them, so I'm sure...

I thought about this story when I read your post.

Good news for the Civic, better news for the Integra since Acura desperately needs a hybrid model again and as a Prelude fan, hopefully a preview of the upcoming Prelude powerplant. Also, if the Prelude base powertrain is the same as the Civic Hybrid, it leaves some hope that a sportier...

If there are no changes for 2025, then I would expect little to no discounts, as there would be no reason to if it's essentially the same car separated by a model year. The best time to buy was yesterday, the second best time is today. There's always tomorrow, but you don't know what tomorrow...

They did, and I am still waiting on them. About a dozen or so of our transponders weren't working so Kaizen is trying to piece together times with what info they have. They said they'd e-mail out the times so hopefully we get something soon. Kinda sucks, but I plan to head back to VIR...

I guess you can say I'm famous now 😂

What you're describing would be a long wheelbase hardtop coupe S2000 successor branded as an Acura, and I absolutely would pay $65k for one if it existed.

The problem with the C8 is that it's* just too big and heavy. I would have considered it if it had 3 pedals, but I'd rather have a Cayman or 911, which both come in a lot lighter on the scales. With all the enthusiasm around the CTR and ITS, I can only hope that Honda continues to invest in...

I had PS4's on my GSF and now the ITS. It's a great tire, especially on track. But they do start to roar once they're broken in. But that's the price you pay for sticky tires.

Bought mine from Radley Acura in Falls Church, Virginia for MSRP. It's my local dealer and we bought my wife's MDX here as well. Ask for Roland. He's our go-to guy.

Awesome that the weather worked out. I was worried for a while with all that rain. Sucks about the braking tho. Did you turn off all the safety features? Collision mitigation? Traction control fully off? I didn't have any lockup issues and on the straights, I was braking pretty late going...
