This Honda CRX Is a Home-Brew Race Car Built to Dominate on Track

[@GarageBuiltHondas]

Love it! Great build, looks like it rips!

[@2LAZY-2EDIT]

Damn I gotta check up your channel see what you been building.

[@calipergarage]

The noises this thing makes are just epic!

[@lucasblanchard47]

That looks like a FUN car! I want to get a CRX or an EG hatch someday. Much love from Texas.

By the time you grow up. The care will be scrap metal.

[@nicolashuffman4312]

Cool car! Simplify, and add lightness! Man, I miss the old GRM. I was a subscriber for something like 15 years.

[@lordraiden5398]

Had a 89 CRX-Si for 13 years. It had 320,000 fun miles on it. I sold it in 2002 after purchasing a WRX. Still have the WRX.

[@BETTALIFE101]

Big mistake you made.

[@carlosgarza1962]

Andy's crx is a killer car. Great guy too

[@tRickBeee]

One easy piece of weight savings missed..... The Garage Door Clicker!... (awesome video presentation)

[@Grassrootsmotorsports]

Glad you liked it!

[@mattpartain29]

This car also doesn’t sound like the typical “race” Honda. You can tell it’s modified but it doesn’t make your ears want to bleed. It’s very well done.

[@BETTALIFE101]

It’s a b series. It’s got a lower deep tone.

[@carsnpyro3484]

This is what you call a fast driver. Anyone can be fast on the straight away.

[@machina_spirit]

Love this build! What model MOMO wheel is that? Also what HANS do you wear? I noticed it has a much shorter profile that doesn’t interfere into the bucket seat headrest area like my HANS III does to my Recaro Pole Postion seat

[@DQSpider]

Man, E85 has really changed the game...

[@JoeMomma-yk6qb]

Try a un-even road state road, at night, straight running it hard, taking turns at high speed

[@DTEL77]

Uhhhh, safety steward here. I want to see those garage door openers removed. They can slip off and get under brake pedals.

[@Nathan_King]

I saw that too. Made me laugh! You're not wrong though.

[@alfa164ls]

Surprised you are allowed a half cage

[@AndyFuntown]

SCCAs TT classing is laughable.

[@BigRichard_]

Why is that?

[@AndyFuntown]

@BigRichard_ Go check the classing and look what cars are grouped together. They also specify minimum weight in vague hand wavy terms, but no one is ever weighed. I just compete in unlimited now when I go to TTNats rather than try and deal with it. They do it, presumably, for accessibility - since NASA TT you need a dyno sheet, but if you're just looking to be on track any random HPDE gets you more seat time for cheaper.

[@ApexwithDavin]

​@BigRichard_ Normally because either 1) Cars get classed out because someone brings a make/model that just destroys the rest, so no one is having fun. 2) Or they make so many niche classes that everyone is a winner.

[@AndyFuntown]

@@ApexwithDavin I replied to Richard, but KZbin nuked my comment? You summed it up nicely. If you just want to go to the track for fun, most HPDE groups give you more track time for cheaper. If you want to compete NASA TT classing isn't perfect, but it's a lot better, etc. SCCA is trying to make it more accessible - which is admirable, but the classing really needs some work.

[@ch_chone]

​@@AndyFuntown yep. I wish Sport classes were dropped entirely. Keep Tuner as it is because the Tuner/Street Touring crossover/dual duty thing is where a lot of enthusiasts end up anyway. Then make Max and Unlimited into power-to-weight classes with dyno sheet required. Call out a power-weight target and a max hp per class. Done. Drop the "modified" stuff and "OE displacement" stuff for building an engine. Infinite creativity to have whatever flavor of fun you want. That would cut down total number of classes to 5 Tuner, 5 Max, and 2 Unlimited. Plus the Max & unlimited classes would be way easier to navigate. I don't think the 2025 redo of Max classing went far enough for simplification, TBH. See the November fastrack if you haven't already. Sport classes can stay in Autocross. Tuner would have higher participation/deeper fields. Max would be easier to navigate and let the creativity flow. Unlimited would still be unlimited.
