Farewell to the Fit-R: SpeedVentures Auto Club Speedway Nov 21-22

We will be taking the KraftWerks/Skunk2 Fit-R out for its last track event this weekend. It goes back to Honda and then to the crusher. So we have decided to take it out one more time for a day at the track.

If you guys are interested in autocrossing your own Fit or catching a ride in the Fit-R before it disappears, come on out!

SpeedVentures has a great deal for the Auto Club AutoX events, and Emilio at 949Racing always puts together a great AutoX track. $80 bucks a day with unlimited runs, and we always seem to get 20 runs in. Sign up here and mention that KraftWerks sent you! Speed Ventures - Track Event Detailed Information

Pre-production cars have to be destroyed after a certain amount of time, so it goes back to Honda to be crushed. We will be yanking our products off of it before it goes back.

Come on out and have some fun with us!
