Default Norcal Honda Challenge Videos - Team Midnight

Hello to all! We know how much you love videos of Honda Challenge's, so we decided to add a "amateur" video section on our website. This is also the first year we are running Honda Challenge, and what a refreshing experience it has been. Compare to other race series, HC certainly has a friendly atmostphere and the cars are well matched! We hope to see more of you out there.

Here it is:

that's some good racing between Tommy's car and Bill Coulter's black/yellow second gen RX-7 at infineon. Just one question: Speed shifting doesn't kill your trannies or over rev your engine? It doesn't look or sound like you get off the gas inbetween gears. I used to do that when I import drag raced 10 years ago, but on a road course?

Was that Donna's car that hit you? What the hell happened? What was she doing at the back of the grid in the first place? &lt;scratching head&gt;

Looks like she started on pole from what I can see. She is to the left of Brian on the start!
You did not mean "me" right John? I was not there.

No, that was her. She was at the back of the pack on saturday, even though she won pole. That is her new baby blue paintjob.

I assume you guys were talking about the Saturday race at Thunderhill last weekend? Yeah, John and Donna got together and we will leave it at that!

Hate to play internet armchair quarterback, but after seeing some west coast HC video I dont think I'd ever want to share a racetrack with her in a car that had good body panels.

.RJ, We would love to race with you even if you got pretty quarter panels! J/K.

As much as we are unhappy about the contact under yellow at T-hill, she did come over to apologize for the incident the following day after understanding what she did wrong. That showed a lot of merits on her part, and I hope it carries over to her on track behavior. Racing is a life long journey, I wouldn't write her off as an over-aggressive racer for the rest of her career. I choose to have faith that she will bring her sportsmanship level up to her driving level in the future.

After hearing all the positive feedback about vidoes, we plan to post our compilation of on track action/music video soon. Stay tuned...

Tommy

Its unfortunate, but she has proven time and time over that "rubbing is racing".
