Honda S2000 Reimagined | Touge Run & Buttonwillow

Starting out this year with our first collaboration film with Deadset Racing featuring Sky's Honda S2000. When we saw photos of his build for the first time, we were trying get a grasp of what kind of car we were looking at. At first glance from the back of the car you would probably think it’s some kind of newer Porsche. Haha nope it’s definitely a Honda! The retro-fitted Audi taillights definitely is a first for us. With it on, it completely transforms the whole look of the car. Paired with track focused mods and Sky’s personal touch this is definitely one of the most unique S2000 builds we’ve seen around the Bay.
As crazy as the car looks, it definitely does show its wear and tear. The owner definitely wasn’t keen on just storing it in a garage for show. Sky is heavily involved in HPDE racing here in Northern California and has raced at tracks like, Buttonwillow and Thunderhill Raceway. It might not be a proper show car, but his lap times with the car shows enough how well put together this S2000 is performance wise.
We started the film at the Deadset shop, and decided to go with a more moody atmosphere to reveal the car. After that for the second part of the film we decided to take the car out on a sunrise touge run to get the car ripping through tight corners one by one and to get raw audio of the car echoing through the mountains. And of course no track car film would be right without on track footage. The track footage was done prior to any other parts of the film at one of Deadset's track days.
This video took several months to complete. We have implemented a variety of new shots and sound design. Enjoy the video in 4k with a good sound system.
Special thanks to Turn8 Racing for letting us film at the track.

We actually destroyed the transmission mid way filming this. Stay tuned to hear the story in part 2 video. 😱

[@skysocool]

It was a pleasure and truly an honor working with you on this project. The crescendo of exhaust noises at the end of the track portion, the seamless transitions throughout the video, the technical planning you put into every scene….I get slightly emotional every time I watch this. Thanks for making me look cooler than I actually am and forever grateful to be a part of the Obsessed family!!

[@task5147]

So who did the rear e-tron lights first? You or @joshua_opheim

[@mohammadsyafiq9858]

That's by far the coolest rear end on S2K. This is soooooo good, can't wait for more content.

[@k00llil4zndud3x]

[@elimlozano3067]

where are these roads? Nice car and video btw!

[@tanzhipeng.tterid]

What is music

[@NathanTen]

awesome S and amazing video! I am curious whats yall audio recording setup for the exhaust/engine noise? I've been trying to find the best way to record that myself lol

[@obsessedus]

Thanks! We used zoom h5 for exhaust and sennheiser shotgun mic for the rest. Given how loud the exhaust already, we just mounted the mic inside the trunk since there were basically no interior/windshield/sound deadening material.

[@NathanTen]

@@obsessedus Awesome! Damn, I might have to pic up a shotgun mic in that case, I tried using a tascam but unfortunately it didn't work out too well. I'm definitely gonna experiment some more. Thanks for the tip! And super excited for new content from yall!

[@user-hr2jh1gd1l]

[@AyeeVictorr]

It was a pleasure being part of the production for this film! The amount of time and effort that was put into this really shows on this final cut. Currently on my 100th view and it doesn't get old.
