Default Motorweek 97 Type R test

Sorry about the quality. The VHS tape just turned ten years old.

That's what it did on the strip not broken in. I remember back in the day, Sakai and I were there at that same drag strip (75-80) they were just on. Watch out for the cows! I was running 14.9's there from what I can remember stock.

Wow Pat! i didn't know you were still lurking around the ITR Forum. Its been almost 2 years since you have owned your believely mint 97 Type R. The Video is a great find. You seem like the type of person that would move on to the "Bigger Brother" in the video.

Again i have to thank you for this vvvvvv

I still have it. At least untill the end of the month. I was gathering some old info for the buyer when I discovered the video. It is the same buyer from almost two years ago. It's a very long story why old 152 is still around, but it's been a great 9 3/4 years.
