Question

Say, isn't this one of the Brazilian-built Fits from Honda's recently-opened assembly line in your country? I do know that Brazilian-built Fits are supposed to start sales in Mexico next month.

Nice shots. That must have been fun.

Not to get off topic, but I like the look of the Fit/Jazz with wheels that have a lot of spokes. I'm generally a fan of 5 spoke wheels, but I think the fit looks good with at least seven spokes (in the pics I've seen, anyway).

That looks like a lot of fun. I love the wheels on your car. Are they 16 or 17 inch? Any suspension modifications? How do the brakes hold up to track use?
By the way 99hp from an 8 valve 1.4 litre at only 5500rpm is amazing.

I agree about the wheels. The wheel/tire combo and the overall stance looks great. Looks sporty but at the same time high enough to handle Pennsylvania pot holes.

In the top photo, what are the 2 silver cars? Are they the Ford Ka? Just curious. Looks like you had a lot of fun racing. :-)

Yes It is. This one came form Sorocaba in the State of São Paulo, the Main Factory of Honda in Brazil.

I could say to you that is always a lot of Fun. The official Pics will be ready soon and I'll post the link to them so you'll see all the cars in the Event. The best one this day was a Mitsubishi EVO 6 with US$ 25.000,00 in parts for Breaks and Suspension.

The Wheels are TSW (http://www.tsw.com/new/index.php) Fly 16" with Offset 40 (It is not the type of Fit, but works). Tyres Yokohama R888 195/50. I already used it with 17" Wheels, but the Tyres 205/40 could not resist the horrible roads oin Brazil.

There is no modifications in the suspension as the Fit has a good setup but in the next it will be using Eibach Springs.

The Turbo is on its way.

Quick question. What do you mean by that? I'm just curious. Were they a 'close' fit or did they install easily?
