Type R Expo West - Story Time by yoshi234

[yoshi234]

Part III - Fun in the hills!

Awesome track marshals keeping things orderly


Digging this livery!


oops


Wes had minor oil leak but was back out in no time.


Raymond's CTR looking good out there


But he kept getting held up by the NSXs


Skittles!




More doors!




Taking a break from the track to reenergize & mingle!






This is so bad arse!


Team Honda Research doing their thang


Near the end of the day many cars were going off at Turn3






Workers went to check but there was nothing. My guess is that tires were getting greasy from running in the heat all day + tired drivers + driver's starting to push it just a tad more as they became familiar with the layout = OFFs


Chase checking his nSX




Time to hit the track again!








That darn Turn3 again!

Excellent pictures my man! Living vicariously thru them as I was not able to attend.

Ryan's car but forget who was driving, but did a good job of hounding the race NSX




Hrm...


Looks good on a bimmer


Needs it here more though


Lawrence from Team Honda Research giving Matt a hand


We must all be getting old. No shenanigans after the sun went down. Just chill in the lot w/ & pizza




Late night light painting w/ Glen's Zanardi Edition NSX. Nice way to end the night



y shi - who'll post Day2 tomorrow

Awesome story, Y :oshi! Sorry to hear about the troubles with 234, but glad that you still managed to limp over and attend the expo.

MikeHonda baby~!

The kid in glasses and blue and white Sparco suit is the driver of the TL. He told me he made it out from Idaho to Thunderhill in 8 hours!

Super nice guy, first Expo. Yoshi/Matt/Ali helped him pack up Thursday night before heading out.

Sorry for the delay in the rest. Was in a car wreck (thankfully 234 was not involved) and now I'm shooting a wedding out of town.

y shi - who will resume storytime on Monday :

Thanks for your patience, lets get back to storytime!

Part V
Day 2 Sept. 27, 2018

Start to another literally hot day!


Guys from Team Honda Research were helpful yesterday in trying to diagnose and fix Matt's ITR. Looks like part of the cause was this.


Jay's in the house!




Not off to a good start coming out of 11


David and Goliath


Mark has a twinkle in his eye **


Was fun watching these two go at it


Former ITR owner Jackson rep'n his TSX


Wes' car all fixed!


EG!


I think this was a casualty from the heat. Both days were 100+F


Cool wheel color!


Marcus' hardtop protecting him from the harsh sun


CWs




I think this was the only black one this year?


y shi - who still has many more parts left in the story...
