Honda Challenge Nat'l Champ race airing on Versus @ 5:30EST today

Your's truly will be making his cable television debut (as a driver...) on the Versus Channel at 5:30PM EST. Some of you have already seen this race on the web, but the Versus broadcast should be edited with some cool in-car footage.

I'm driving the Blurple Acura luxury boat, #35 in HC1.

Anyways, if you have the Versus Channel (unlikely?), you have nothing better to do (unlikely) and you're home at 5:30est (unlikely?) you should check it out.

Love,

Efini

I have something called "VC HD", donno if it's the same as the Verses Channel, but I see no repeat of the race soon. There is a Viper (maybe Spec) race on tomorrow at 4 or 4:30 (PM)

For those that missed the versus airing, you can watch an unedited version of the race online here ------> http://speedcasttv.com/nasa/#/races/249

Unfortunately it is small, low quality internet video as opposed to big screen HD.

Also, you can watch my other Nat'l Champ race on the same website.
That is here -------> http://speedcasttv.com/#/races/273

The car is pretty bad ***, despite being a bit outclassed in H1 (especially at Mid-O). It's one of the best sounding race cars I've ever driven...

Damage wasn't too bad. Radiator support definitely needs to be replaced as well as one of the upper wheelhouse members. I don't think the frame was tweaked at all so it shouldn't need to go on a straightener. Otherwise, bumper cover, both fenders and hood all need replaced.
