It was very well balanced and ran the Figure 8's really clean with plenty of action...Came close to clipping his driver door against a telephone pole...Too bad that the crvVTEC was set up for turbo as it was built with a 9:1 Compression bottom and I believe he was using a CRV tranny which probably is setup tall to save on gas...If he had a b16 tranny, I think it will be very easy to break off drifts on the straightaways...Remember the car is setup as FWD from the factory and I think all he really did was do the RWD conversion without really addressing the chassis setup as yet...I may be wrong though, since the teg looked as if it was meant to drift...I think when he adds the turbo, the teg is gonna be too tailhappy and will never drift as it would N/A...Who cares really...The car is badass and the people who put it together are a class act with lots of engineering talent and fabrication skills...Full buildup was covered in Honda Tuning Mag for like 6issues...So, it can be repeated by someone with the time and finances to throw at such a project...It only needs a shorter geared tranny, some sick paint and a some Drift Graphics...Then we'll see it in Option for sure...
