Words -Joey Lee/Photos –  Loi Song

With the Civic nearing completion at Robi-Spec and moving on to Unlimited class, Loi Song and the Sportcar Motion guys took out their new Modified FF class ITR out to Vegas and grabbed another win. This marks the first win for the Type R and from what Loi has been telling me, this car is already faster than the EG was before. Just a little more fine-tuning with the suspension and what not and this thing is gonna destroy the competition…

Loi is a close personal friend of mine and I had dinner with him the night before the event and I got a chance to look at the car up close. Man, it sure has come a long way from the first time I saw it. Back then Loi was still hiding it from the public and it was just sitting in the back of the shop all pretty like a show car. To see this thing go through its transformation is pretty cool. When it’s all said and done, there are high expectations for this ITR and it has the potential to break some records…

I actually helped Loi design the new Sportcar logo that’s now on the car. He said he needed something that was easier to read that was straight to the point and I whipped something up a couple days before the event. It came out better than I thought it would even though it took Loi and I like 2 hours just to try to apply it on the car since we sprayed too much water on it….haha…

Tim Kuo was responsible for piloting the ITR to it’s first win and he also brought out his own personal car, which is this silver S2000. It was a busy week for Tim and he managed to place 3rd in the Street RWD class as well…

Here’s another S2k that was at the event. I’m sure you’ve seen the JHP S2000 before at other events and in print…

And of course we have the AFI Turbo S2000 as well with the Chargespeed widebody kit…

Thanks to Billy for always rocking the Chronicles tee, even though it’s hot as shit…haha. Congrats to Sportcar Motion crew and Tim Kuo on yet another win…
