Default Thanks Victor / VPR Motorsports!!!

Other then keeping an eye on things on h-t I do not post much anymore. I have not posted any pics of my car in a very long time.

Victor / VPR Motorsports has been a Huge help in building my Honda Challenge H2 car and I just thought I would make a thread to say....

Thank You Victor!!!

Top notch guy that would do anything to help someone and I would suggest anyone to do business with him that wants to be treated right!

These are a couple pics from this past weekend at Summit Point for some shake down.

That's correct, that first pic is money. Victor is one of the best people I'v met from this board the past few years. I'm going to send him a PM, I'd love to rock some stickers for him.

Truth. Victor alway's comes thru.

Now that you have had a few laps with it. It was a noticable change for the better with the new wing, wasn't it?

Fake Mugen wings all over Summit Point last weekend. :-p

Agree 100% with the comments about Victor. Very reliable and honest, and always bends over backwards to do the very best he can for anyone in the community.

He's also very easy to live with. :-)

Victor is the man! *waits for a t-shirt*

Steve, I think I see some dirt on your car...LOL

Steve is the only guy that will wipe down his engine bay after a few hot laps.

hahahaha....you should have seen the look on his face when I brought my Z into the shop without washing it for about 4 months.

Smitdog: Hey man, can I run your car through the wash?


BTW...did Victor get rid of the Magnum PI moustache yet?

In all honesty I am sold! I really did not think this Mugen Style wing would have such a positive affect on my car. The best improvement is threshold braking from 125+. The car Does Not Wiggle or feel unstable anymore!!

The spoiler really does work. It does not hurt any MPH either! Thanks for the pointers to give one a try!

That is the single most noticable difference I found was it minimizes wiggle under breaking.

On the main track turning 1:28 laps. When I begin to brake at the 2nd or 3rd marker My speedo shows 130-134mph.

Steve gets through Turn 10 just about perfectly, and he is always well into the markers before he brakes for Turn 1.

He has turned into an excellent driver.
