Love this video! I didn't realize how intense the overtaking is in circle track racing! I come from a road course background in endurance racing and time attack and this looks like a hell of a lot of fun! Do you have any information about the organizations that run these kind of events?
I road raced professionally for a few years. This is as much fun or even more so sometimes. Circle track is a battle every corner of every lap! As far as finding something like this, do a search of circle tracks in your area. There are probably more than you think! Then see what classes they have and go out to see what it's like. It's the cheapest way to race and even has a payout at the end of the night!
I'm in great content! I have wanted to get into dirt circle track. I've always went in a straight line but grew up at the dirt track and has always been a dream. Thank you for inspiration.
@@rossroadwarriors1672 We have people as young as 15 racing at our track ... Of course with proper notarized parental consent. But it is possible to get in at a pretty young age this way.
As someone who's always wanted to race at least semi-professionally, seeing you drive the GTR was awesome. It seems like people do the short track racing aspiring to get there. Why did you go from GT-3 to local track racing rather than continuing at the GT3 level?
GT3 racing is around $1m per year. Nissan ended funding for their USA program. Hundreds of us were left without jobs over night. I chased rides for 2 years after, the only thing teams care about is "what's your budget" as in how much money am I bringing. It's a business for many professional teams, they get paid drivers and they run the car. No money, no ride.
@@thatracinglife Thanks for the response. Such a lucky experience though so congrats on getting to try it for awhile. I do a lot of autocross events in the Chicago area but have been thinking about getting into some circle track banger racing. Hopefully I'll see ya on the track one day!
Thanks for watching and thanks for the reply. It was amazing while it lasted! For sure some of the best days of my life. The cars are insane to drive and so much fun. I miss it for sure! Even in NASCAR and F1 at least half the entries are people paying to be there. It sucks it's not like the good old days, younger people arent as interested in cars as they used to be. Leaves a lot of advertising money out of the business. Circle track racing is more unique because they have pretty good payouts! So you can pretty much race for free or even make a few bucks if you're good. That's why I went back. Also this is what I can afford and am interested in. Lol
You can make the power with the duratec engines for sure. It just costs more. Having the hondas or SER is easier to win with a stock engine. Check out our partner massivespeedsystem.com for all your focus needs. That's their specialty.
Holy Sheet. You bought that Prelude for $200 WOW! what is the symptoms of this car going into limp mode? Most of the cars I've towed that went into limp mode was top speed like 15 to 20 mph. Felt like car was in 3rd or 4th gear from launch. Anyway. Great job handling that car when it was under powered. Your advice about pulling it off track instead of getting run over is so true. That was a hard decision for me to make in my last enduro. My goal was to just finish the race so when it lost signal to fuel injector 3. I did 15 more laps and parked it. Love your MAGA comment. Lol. Make automatics great again. Take care and I wish ya all the best this summer.
There are a couple different levels of limp mode on these things. This one just had no vtec and a lower rev limit. I will go over the repair of it in the next video. I am currently on vacation in AZ so I'll get that up as soon as I get home! 😁 Sometimes you go to have fun and turn laps. Sometimes you go to win. Just depends what you're after. For us it was a better choice to just call it a day and shoot for that win another day!
should put a team together and come to Atomic Speedway for an endurance race next year or later this year. They had a 24hr race this weekend with over 40 teams starting and 14 finishing..
Think Atomic took all 4cyl SCDRA off the list for rest of year didn’t they(2022) Sucks. My son finished 7th in the King of Compacts in just his 5th lifetime start. His ground wire popped off with 15 to go and lost the v-tec kicking in with his H22A4. Lil advice.. the H22A4 is an open deck, where an H22A is a closed deck. TheA4 has never had a problem keeping cool. Cut hose economy runners out of the head near valves, and lap valves in as good as u can get. We have Skn2tnr2 cams and Fiarria flat valves. Cut all of intake out and run 70mm throttle body. NEVER underestimate theTPS set to 4.50 power on wide open and set timing. Just the slightest cost u a ton of power
At the risk of sounding ignorant what are you waving at ...? Is that something you have to do ?? Btw this is awesome I really want to do this !!!!!!!!!!!
The waiving is to let drivers behind you know you're checking up. That there is an incident ahead. These cars dont have brake lights so it's a way to help everyone stay out of trouble. Glad you enjoy the show!
Haha no worries man! Just figured it was a bit more fair if everyone only got 1 entry. You arent the only one. LOL. I appreciate you sticking around and continuing to watch!
All of that generation had the H22A4. The older cars had F series with H23 and H22 vtec models. Even older ones had a bespoke B20 uncommon to the integra and CRV B series.

Thanks for the kind words. Got you on the list! Good luck! In the mean time get out there and have some fun 😁
I’m in! I’m currently building a bandit car for Jefferson speedway
Got you on the list! Jefferson is a great place to race. Have fun out there!
How many cars on track,and how big is this track?
Awesome racing
@reddmann2216 anywhere from 60 to 120 cars. Most tracks are 1/4 mile. Some slightly bigger.
Bad luck man. I'll be watching to see what y'all do next.
Thanks man! We'll keep on rippin
Man, just watching this makes me want to go race!
Thats the idea!
Dang i live in wisconsin but im not 18
Love ur vids btw
Thanks! I'm sure we will do some more fun stuff in the next few years when you're old enough!
@@thatracinglife because of you guys im probably going to start racing at my local raceway in rice lake

@@xcandiottix I am in southern Wisconsin now, if you ever come up this way to watch some races come say hi if you see me!
I’m in! Also thoughts on building a ZX2 or ZX3? Do those models have the capability of winning or does a guy have to have a V-TEC or SER to win?
You can make the power with the duratec engines for sure. It just costs more. Having the hondas or SER is easier to win with a stock engine. Check out our partner massivespeedsystem.com for all your focus needs. That's their specialty.
I'm in..
Got you on the list! Thanks!
Just curious why do you wave your hand whal your going around the track
It's a warning to drivers behind you that you are slowing down or there is a problem ahead. These cars don't have brake lights.
I am in. Thank you.
Got you on the list! Good luck!
Race time!!!!! *Ric Flair* WWOOOOOO!!!!
Hell yeah brother!
Snow...? Oh hell no...
Yeah. Winter suuuucks. Haha

All of that generation had the H22A4. The older cars had F series with H23 and H22 vtec models. Even older ones had a bespoke B20 uncommon to the integra and CRV B series.
