    Mid Ohio 5/28-5/31

    I will be heading to this track for the first time (two different clubs, back to back) and was wondering if anyone else is planning to be there?

    VIR November 5-7

    Thinking very strongly about making the trek down to VIR in November to drive a legendary track and to get one more event in before the close of the season. Turbo2Go is whining about pillows or balls or mounts or some such nonsense and saying he doesn't want to drive 12 hours. Anybody else...

    Top 5 Tracks to Drive

    What would be the top 5 tracks in the world you would like to drive in your lifetime? Include tracks that you have already driven if you think they are in the top 5. Here's mine: 1. Suzuka 2. Spa 3. Watkins Glen 4. Laguna Seca 5. Daytona 3 of 5 in US seems high to me. So many good tracks...

    Great, Unique Event in Middle of Massachusetts

    This was a really exceptional event that I went to 2 years back that is an annual event and coming up again this weekend. Set on a polo farm in the middle of the state of Massachusetts, it brings out a full, wide range of really cool cars. I am going to try to make it if at all possible and...

    NSX to Z06, A Long Comparison

    Well with all of the activity and furious posting by people who haven't even driven both of these cars in various threads, I figured maybe I should chime in with an educated opinion on these two cars. I owned a 2003 NSX for three years, which I originally bought certified preowned and still...

    Gumball 3000

    Saw one of the cars walking to work today and just don't get the point of this event. Can someone it to me? My current understanding is that it is people with WAYYYY too much money and time on their hands driving WAYYYYY too fast on public streets (it's a rally, not a race *wink wink*), for...

    Please Educate Me About Harness Belts

    Hi, I am in the market for harness belts for the first time and wanted to gain from the collective wisdom of you all. Sorry if some of these are stupid questions.... bear with me. Are there any significant differences among the various vendors? What should I be looking for? I have been told...

    NSX 2010 Track Planner

    I figured I'd post the events I'll be at this year and will edit it as needed to add and/or update events. I suggest fellow Primers all do the same. Edit your original post so that your schedule is all in the same place. That way we'll know who is where and hopefully it will encourage us...

    Time for Timing Belt -- What Else?

    Hi, I have a 2003 NSX and my timing belt is due for a change this year. I know about the water pump, but is there anything else I should be having done at the same time? I will also be installing pivot clamps, toe links, and non-compliance rear beam if that is relevant. Thanks for the advice.

    I will be heading to the ALMS race on Saturday... what are the best places to watch the race? Will I be able to move around freely? Any other protips? Thanks in advance.

    Buying Extremely Low Mileage Cars

    I have been looking at Z06's and there are quite a few '07-'08's with only a few hundred miles that are for sale. I am leery of these cars because I can't really fathom why someone would buy a car, drive it so little, and then want to sell it. I guess there are certainly people who get in over...

    "Demotivational" Posters

    ALMS at Lime Rock - July 18th

    With less than a month to go until the race, is there going to be an NSXCA event planned this year? I heard some rumors of Acura not sponsoring a tent this year, but if not, perhaps we can still plan to meet up and head down together anyways. Anyone know what the plan is (or is not)? Thanks.

    Old F1 Seasons on Video

    Does anyone know where I can buy the whole season of past years of F1? I am particularly interested in seeing the 1984-1994 years for a fairly obvious reason (Senna). I figured this is a better place to post this since this is a better target market than the Off Topic section. Thanks in...

    Headroom and Seating Questions

    I have installed the Dali track cushion and that has helped me to at least be able to move my head moderately when I am in the car with my helmet on, but I am definitely bumping into the roof and concerned about the severe consequences in the unlikely event of rolling the car while on the track...

    June 18th - MA Meet

    I've been looking to get over to this car cruise night at the Hebert Candy Mansion in Shrewsbury, MA for a while. The Drag Race Car night looks like an interesting event and it will give me the impetus to get the NSX cleaned up. Please post if you are interested in joining me and we'll meet up...

    2009 IndyCar Thread

    Thought I'd get this started for any IndyCar fans on the board. We should have some since it features Honda power! I caught a bit of the qualifying for the Indy 500 last Saturday and thought the cars were beautiful. Much nicer than the current F1 design (and last years as well, of course)...

    F3 Racecar Built with Vegetables?

    Dali Track Cushion

    Of the three options, leather, naugahyde, and cloth, I am wondering which to get. I would ordinarily prefer the leather if it matched my '03 style seats because I would just leave it in there permanently, but it looks like it is the earlier, non-perforated style. Anyone know whether it is...

    SS Brake Lines - When to Replace?

    Just put new SS brake lines on the car a few weeks ago and wanted to know what the expected life of these are. Is it based on a visual inspection? A certain timeframe and/or mileage? Thanks in advance.
