Bring that Fit to Florida so that the one that runs down here in HC will have somebody to trade paint with.

I believe that the owner/driver is Sean Yearwood (#84, Honda Challenge 4). Sean owns http://powerrevracing.com/shop/.

He drives the newer model of the fit. the one with out much aftermarket support (ie:motor mounts for k swap.. gotta go custom..)

My 2008 Bullitt and I have parted company, and now enter a 2012 Mustang GT Premium with Brembo front brakes and 3.73 axle. The Bullitt was a great car and I enjoyed it on the track, but it was time to get something with a little more race in it and a smaller payment (gotta love discounts and 0% financing!).

 

See you on track once I get enough break-in miles!

I find myself racing less these years, but I still want to spend time on the track. NASA HPDE events are an ideal outlet for my occasional 'need for speed'. This weekend I'm looking forward to returning to a favorite track: Sebring. I'll be bringing two cars, one that was literally built for circuits of this type, and the other far better suited for tracks with shorter straights and more twisty bits.

Hi Mark:

 

No excuses for my absence, but I'm glad to be returning to the fold. If you're still sleeping early Sunday morning, don't worry - I'll wake you. No snooze alarm, though.

 

See you Saturday afternoon!

Here are some pics of my new toy, which I'll be running at NJMP HPDE1 in October.

Just make sure you get that rollbar installed before you sign up.

Well after 10 hrs., alot of sweat, some cursing, a little blood, and some much appreciated help from a freind, the rollbar is finally in. Got a couple of other projects planned before NJMP, will post pics as things progress.
