97R #129 Buttonwillow 13cw 7/31
GoPro video of my fastest lap this day. 2:04.6
Mods:
Mugen intake
Toda header
Spoon N1 Exhaust
Spoon Showa N1 Damper
Mugen Bushings
Toyo R888
WestEnd Alignment
Try to ignore the dead bug carcass on the middle of the lens. Video of off track excursion coming soon.
Turns out this is the same lap this two-wheel picture was taken.

nice! 204.6 is one heck of a lap time for a stock motor. My CRX also pulls a 204.

We have all been there. 
I know the feeling, sitting there covered in dirt. Good news, you didnt try and save it. Looked like it could have gotten worse in a hurry.
Did you lift or did wheel hop? I dont readily see what sent you sideways.

Theres a bump right in that turn. Its known as the spot where people roll their cars.
I'm in the upper 90's in that turn so i got super lucky. As soon as the rear let go, i was like "this is it"
Wound up with nothing more than a bent rear trailing arm, and had to get my tires dismounted/ remounted to get all the debris from inside the bead.
Missed the rest of track day, but made the 2 hour drive home!

Its good to see that that your still keeping it real in the honda game since FF-Squad was on geocities.
There are still a small group of purist holding it down that you guy's started over 10 years ago.
Your car is so simple yet so effective
