Ron, that was probably me running my mouth about the Type-R. :P

I'm familiar with one that is jointly owned by a couple of guys, one living in Midiv (Dave Volante) and one in Cendiv (Bob Roth).

Their plan is to set it up for long enduros (Summit, Nelson, etc) so the car won't be an all-out ITR build...but it's still a quick car. Like you said, lightness does go a ways.

Right now it's still being un-NASA'd - it has a couple of little items that were legal for the Honda Challenge class it was in but aren't quite legal for ITR. All will be right by Spring, however....
