The Honda IndyTruck Hits the Track! Testing at THE Honda Proving Center

Рет қаралды 850,840

Күн бұрын

With SEMA over and behind us, it's time to actually put the Honda IndyTruck to use! But first, Suppy and the boys do a bit of track prep and fab up some sick new titanium intake tubes. Out on the test track at Honda Proving Center, Honda's pro driver takes the truck for its first laps before letting our very own Alex Grimm take over. No REAL tire slaying was allowed, but there's a bit of incidental sideways action to satiate the drift heads out there.

( 92 hatch with a JDM GSR block with JDM b16a head with type r pistons my weapon of choice) laughing at you wanting to race at every light. The look on the people's faces cracking VTEC to 120 MPH like nothing. Now people look at those absolutly different, With repect not wanting to be embaressed. People dont relize most every performance car out 4 banger to v8 have their own version of VTEC. HONDA 4 LIFE One of tHe coolest things ever seen at SEMA. Honestly Sema gets old after 3 or 4 times. HOONIGAN made it really fun this year. Thanks guys have fun trying to top this build. Cant wait for the next one. Thanks

@nelsonphillips Жыл бұрын

that rear wing is doing nothing.... apparently they want to racing the hoonipig, or what ever its called, and that has a design aero package. This basic test says that with increased speed the balance shift forwards. The only way to fix this is to make the rear wing much wider, as wide as possible. Compared to an actual racecar with aero this thing will be remarkably slow, in this configuration.

@Outland9000 Жыл бұрын

idk if the underside of the car is flat but if it is the front splitter and rear diffuser will make a chunk of aero downforce.

Great build with tons of potential, I think the tires were a huge oversight even at this first testing point, they should of started with some more advanced tires for this type of build like Proxes R888, so they could evaluate the performance of the build and not constantly making adjustments because of poor grip
