NO GOOD RACING 30th Anniversary Coverage…Part 2…


What’s up all, back now with some more great photos from the NO GOOD RACING 30th Anniversary event. Yasutaka Shimomukai did a excellent job of capturing this event so I must thank him first and foremost for presenting us with this coverage. He usually sends them to me right away too so it is just a matter of when I finally have a chance to sit down and go through all the RAW photos. I really don’t have much to talk about today as I am about to hop on a plane to head down to Houston, Texas for the Wekfest event. By the time you guys read this I think I’ll probably already be on my way to Texas. These photos speak for themselves anyway and don’t require much narration. In Part 1, you guys got a glimpse at some of the many Civics that were at the event. Today, in part 2, you get to see the vehicles in action. Wedged in-between the photos are some candids and other photos from the paddock area of the event. If you’re into Civics, this is one of the posts that you shouldn’t miss out on because they are literally just everywhere in every photo of this series. Enjoy…

If you guys are from Texas or plan to attend the Wekfest event in Houston, I’ll see you guys real soon. For the rest of you, have a great weekend. Thanks for the support and thank you to Yasu for the great snaps…

  1. Safe travels to Houston! see you at the premeet!

  2. The “mini indy car” might be a Japanese Formula 3 race car.

  3. I believe the “mini indy car” is a Japanese Formula 3 race car.

  4. If only someone would dare to be different and use a Prelude chassis. I love their symbolism and their passion for what they stand for. 30 years is quite a time for a culture.

  5. Any video of that mini indy car? Bet it sounds pretty cool…..
