honda racing

Despite having a later start (due to having risen from the ashes of WWII) than other marques, Honda has enjoyed a rich racing history in many venues.

Teaming with Frank Williams in the 1980's Formula One arena, they took both the Constructors' and Drivers' World Championships on multiple occasions, at one time taking both in the same year. The 1987 season saw Honda power take a 1-2-3-4 finish at the British Grand Prix, which set the stage for pushing Ford and its Cosworth series of V8 engines off of racing's most prestigious motorsports podium for keeps.

On an interesting note, Honda took a Formula One victory in a car featuring their own chassis and V12 engine in 1965, nearly two years before any American car and engine combination could claim the same.

Honda's performance in all levels of motorcycle racing (250cc, 500cc, 1000cc, SuperBike, the list goes on) can only be described as legendary.

The latest hit on American cars attempting to keep up has been at the Indianapolis 500. The 2006 running of this race saw Chevrolet giving up completely and not supporting one single team, fearing that Honda would completely thrash its Chevy V8 (an Ilmor 256 design). The 2006 race saw a perfect reliability record by all of the Honda-powered cars, with all race finishers being powered by Honda. Any DNF's were usually caused by driver error and crashing (with that Honda engine still running hard).

That cowardly decision by Chevrolet Racing to simply give up proved to be a huge PR failure for General Motors.
Two guys watching ESPN at the local sports bar:

Race Fan: "Man, that Honda-powered Formula One car just blistered out a 1.7 second 0-60 time. A great example of Honda Racing making its mark."

Neck-boy: "My 2002 Chevy Camaro can do that!"

Race Fan: "Oh, really...by the way, where is your Chevy?"

Neck-boy: "Back at home. I'm all greasy from crawling under it every week because it breaks down all the time...but Chevy's rule! YEAH! Mine's a cherry with only 24,000 miles on it!"

Race Fan: "Sure. Only 24 thou'? Wow, it must break down a lot. Hey, you need a ride home in my Honda Civic? Granted it's a bone-stock 1993 with 287,000 miles on it with the original motor, but it still runs great."

Neck-boy: "Uh, no thanks. I'd rather walk the 7 miles to my house in this 106-degree heat and risk a heat stroke rather than be seen in your intelligently designed, financially-smart and incredibly reliable foreign car. Nothin' personal, but my friends would make fun of me...you know, peer pressure."

Race Fan: "Suit yourself. Hey, why is your Camaro a 2002? Can't you get a newer one?"

Neck-boy "No, GM quit producing them after the 2002 model year because nobody was buying them."

Street racing

Generally, an act of two vehicles, maybe more, engaging in an illegal contest of speed on various public thoroughfares. Historically, street racing in America got it's start in the 1960's when the three main American car companies were producing high powered rear-wheel-drivecars called muscle cars (example's include the Chevrolet Camaro, Plymouth Barracuda, and the Ford Mustang as well as many others). A private racing venue was not always available, and therefore the race would be held illegally on public roads, typically uncrowded highways on city outskirts or in the countryside, though some races were held in industrial complexes. One popular venue was Woodward Avenue in Detroit. Movies like "American Graffiti" and "Two Lane Blacktop" illustrated this culture and gained a cult following in the process.

Fast forward to the mid to late 80's where young men based in southern California began modifying small compact 4 cylinder engine import cars, specifically the Honda Civic, and racing them on the street. While there were still many muscle cars in existence, they were rare, and typically were not commonly raced on the street. This vacancy led to the uprising of the "boy-racer"; young men sporting modified imports (usually Japanese) with turbochargers, nitrous oxide, engine modifications, and wild bodykits consisting of aftermarket bumpers, side skirts and wings, with styling considered very radical for the time. This "boy-racer" or "ricer" image quickly caught on and spread, ushering in a new breed of street racer and street racing machine. The culture gained a huge following and garnered much attention in the media, with a number of automotive magazines dedicating themselves to this specific culture. Some of this new breed of racer was more daring, more dangerous than their predecesors, challenging races in traffic and on busy highways, though many races were similarly held like their predecesors, in abandoned industrial parks and highways at night. Popularity soared with the availability of cheap sport compact cars that took very easily to speed modifications, and venues and races grew in size, leading to more media popularity as well as news reports concerning this "new" culture. Movies such as "The Fast and the Furious" and video games such as "Need For Speed: Underground" were inspired by this culture. Eventually, people in this style of culture were refered to as "tuners".

In early 2000's, rivalry between those who preferred the older muscle cars and tuners began to take shape. Many races were "import versus domestic" (though many tuner cars are actually considered domestic). There was much smack talk between the two sides.

Today street racing is still very popular in a number of locations across the nation, though rivalry between makes seems to have waned. Today's street racer is usually associated with a team, or a crew, and is generally very organized thanks to today's wireless communication abilities. Ages can range from as young as barely licensed on up past 60+, though the average age is 27. While many kinds vehicles are involved in the culture, Three generalizations are usually realized; the long standing muscle car and tuner car, as well as luxury or "exotic" cars (such as the Audi S4) which is also gaining popularity.

NOTE: Street racing should not be confused with road racing, which is a legally sanctioned race event that takes place on closed off public roads.
I just saw an Audi S4, Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4, and a Ford Mustang Cobra street racing in the industrial complex.

Hashcar Racing

A stoner activity wherein one consumes copius amounts of ganja, ganja extract, edibles infused with either, or any combination thereof, and then consequently proceeds to drive at noticably slower velocities due to the effects of said ingested products, meanwhile experiencing the sensation and subsequent rush of driving extremely fast, as though being a NASCAR racer.

The pot head may "tune in" to increase the feelings associated with Hashcar Racing by turning on music including, though not limited to, Asian dub, house, club, swing, folktronica, synergy, neurofunk, cybergrind, thrashpunk, trip-hop, and spacesynth.

Although Hashcar Racing is not considered dangerous because of the slow velocities inherent, it may become hazardous if combined with "hotboxing" since the driver's field of vision and occular clarity may be decreased by the smoke cotained within the automobile.

Hashcar racing is considered a sport by a small percentage of reefer tokers.
Though the sport is not recognized as an olympic sport, it does have a worldwide yearly competition on April 20th called "The Great Space Race."
(as a verb)
John: Why is that dude going so slow? It's a 55mph zone!
MaryJane: He must be Hashcar racing.

(as a noun)
MaryJane: I hate traffic!
John: I don't mind, I just light up a slpiff and transform into a Hashcar racer.

(as an adjective)
John: I just got an ounce of some dank Collie Buds, what should we do?
Mary: We should take your Pinto to the burbs and get all Hashcar Racey on the side roads!
John: What a novel idea! I'll grab the zig zags!
