Damn, good luck on Round 3…still wreaking havoc on the CRXs in H4?

Hey itaintegrals, great driving by the way. Anyhow, what do you think about staggered tire sizes, and running a wider tire in the front for more oversteer, or wider tires in the rear for more understeer? Are you running 225/50/14 in both front and back?
Also, can you strip your car down even further, to get below 2500 lbs?
I’m curious: why you’re using a stock front sway bar, and an 22mm ITR rear sway bar?
Also, are you using strut tower bars? If, which type, and what material is it?

I know these are alot of questions, but also what ECU program are you running to modify your fuel map? Are you running slightly lean?

Thanks for any replies itaintegrals! I’m slowly building my car up, and I’d like to get advice from an actual racer, who has experience, and knows what works, and what’s just hype.

And good luck with your future races!

I would like to see a similarly modded DB2 running in this class… What do you think you could do with another 30 or so HP in H4?

You would be kicked out of H4 thats for sure. And maybe kick some H1 cars butts on the way.

Minimum weigh for my class for a DA is 2480lbs so no more weight reduction.
I keem all for tires 225-50-14 for faster cornering more grip. I use stock front swaybat for stabilty and a ITR rear bars to the rera end will get loose when i want it too slight oversteer. Cheap front tower bar and rear is made with the cage. ECU is a custom program made specifically for my car.

Is that just the car or car + driver?

What exactly are the rules for H4? They won’t let stock Vtec cars run? Is there a HP cap?

Here is the national rules for Honda Challenge. Its good to know the rules.

Check it out guys
