Hi,

Having once again fallen in love with the Type-R after racing it again in the Britcar 24hr at Silverstone and a life long Honda V-Tec engine fan as I've had one in my S2 Lotus Elise Road/Track car for the past 4 years I decided to join up here .... been lurking long enough (well, odd visits for tech info).

I'm also processing and uploading some Youtube vids of the Britcar 24hour race held at Silverstone in the UK that readers here might be interested in hence the join up to post.

The racecar is an EP3 in the Old Britcar Production Spec (i.e. no internal engine or gbox mods) the guys have changed intake and exhaust and lowered to v-tec cut-in but thats about it apart from brakes and the usual race & safey stuff.

My road/track car is a Lotus Elise S2 which has had a Type-R engine and gearbox transplant and goes ... rather well

Anyway, to the videos ..

I was driving the No 94 Daniels Motorsport Civic Type-R (EP3). We have competed in this same car on 4 previous occasions and won our class in 2006/2007, finished 5th in 2008, no race in 2009 and we finished 6th in class (23 cars) and 27th overall (63 cars).

These are both quite rushed as I processed and posted them on the Sunday as the race was still in progress. I will be trawling through the rest of the video we took for more highlights and such and do a bit better job with the filters and such. There are some more videos from this car internal and external on my channel plus lots from the cockpit of my S2 Lotus Elise with Type-R engine transplant.

This is early footage from about lap 9. There was a safety car period after 4 laps so this is where the action starts. Checkout the speed of those Moslers @ around 3mins and especialy 6min. Also you'll see the Saxon Motorsport Civic which is higher spec than ours and went on to finish 3rd in class, great job Saxon.

This is some night footage, and it was VERY wet. We actually had rain from about 3hrs in until the end of the race which made conditions very tricky.
