    Gave up on Honda...

    ... and got an R8. It's everything that the next NSX should have been. Mid engine, 4 wheel drive, 187MPH, gorgeous looks, and it inspires passion like you can't believe. It beats my beloved (and highly modified) NSX in every possible way - power, handling, braking, accelleration, sound...

    NA1 ('92) OEM Hood

    This hood has the original red paint. There are no dents in the metal. There are about 120,000 miles worth of very small chips in the paint due to normal road debris. Would look perfect when repainted. $300 plus shipping. It's all boxed up and ready to ship. Shipping is probably around...

    Jackson Acura - Great part prices!

    I had a great experience at the new Jackson Acura dealer in Alpharetta GA (suburb of Atlanta) recently. I needed a new transmission - wore mine out after 135K miles and a ton of track events). I grabbed the latest NSX club magazine NSX Driver and found a dealer listed there who offers NSXCA...

    New Acura dealership in Alpharetta (Atlanta)

    There is a seriously large and beautiful new Acura dealership in Alpharetta that just opened. Jackson Acura, on Alpharetta Highway near the Honda and Audi dealerships. That building must have cost many millions - incredible. 50" HDTV in the waiting room, a free coffee bar that rivals many...

    Gee, if Lotus can do it...

    ... you would think Honda would have no trouble! Looks pretty good to me. This is from the current issue of Car and Driver. Come on, Honda - do your magic - come out with something to beat the pants off this.

    Hard Disk Camcorder on the track

    I bought a high-end Sony camcorder with a 30 gig hard drive in it, for mounting in the NSX for in-car videos at the track. It does not work. It shuts off almost immediately, even when the shock sensor is turned off. You can hold the thing in your hand and beat on it and shake it and it works...

    Rtfm

    Read The Freakin' Manual - that's what they say. So I read the NSX owner's manual. Ever done that??? You should. Learned 2 things I didn't know: 1) There's a special place to hang the gas cap on the inside of the gas cap door. You probably knew that one, but I didn't. And 2) you can...

    Endurance Karting

    I've been racing go-karts at a local indoor track (Andretti Speed Lab), and decided to try the next step up - outdoor endurance karting. I went to a Johan Schwartz Endurance Karting event in Charlotte, held at the kart track in the infield of Lowes Motor Speedway. The karts have centrifical...

    Windshield Replacement

    After 13 years and 116,000 miles (many of which were on a track at high speed), my windshield was really pitted. Direct sun on it showed how bad it was - literally hazy from all the pits and scratches. No cracks however. So I looked around at those mobile windshield replacment services, and...

    A bit crude, but funny

    Here's something completely different. Some guys went to Heathrow airport, and requested that certain individuals be paged. They waited until international flights came in, and made up foreign sounding "names" that were really crude sayings in english. They recorded the pages. Some are...

    New Wings West kits poor quality!

    I bought one of those new Wings West body kits recently, and took it to a good body shop to get it painted. They called me up and asked me to come there to meet about it. There are serious quality problems with it, especially with the spats. There are repairs obviously made at the factory...

    Gran Turismo 4 - good training tool?

    I've been playing Gran Turismo 4 on a PlayStation 2 using the Logitech Driving Force Pro steering wheel. Just wondered if any of you other track rats out there have tried it, and if so, do you think it's a good performance driving learning tool? I think it is. It's truly changing the way I...
