HPDE/Road Race Accord Build
What's up everyone? I've been attending track days over the past couple years as a vendor/photog, and now I'm finally getting my car sorted to get on the track myself. Here's my 03 Accord Coupe that I'll doing HPDE in this year. Over the past few months I've been going through the suspension, and replacing everything that's been rotting away after 177k miles. Unfortunately, I'm not great at documenting while working, so I only have a few photos of the work that's been done. As of right now I'm on all stock suspension, stock engine, stoptech sport pads, and slotted rotors. I'm running 17x8 Enkei RPF1's wrapped with 205/40 Falken 615K+'s. My track experience is pretty limited. I hopped on a road course for my first time in October of 17'. This was a two day 7.5 + 6.5 hour endurance race with Lucky Dog Racing League at Portland International Raceway. I just did a track day with NASA Great Lakes at the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park. The car likes to roll a lot, and with the leather seats allowing me to slide around. I didn't have a lot of confidence chucking it into some of the higher speed corners. Anyways, I didn't feel like re-sizing all of the photos of the car. So check out my Flickr album below.

Also, here's a video from my first track day in the Accord at the National Corvette Museum. Rainy, and cold conditions were making me a bit uneasy. This track is huge, and was super tough to learn.
