  • I've been waiting for Spoon Sports to get their hands on an FK8 since its release back in 2017. I was eager to see the final product since this was a huge build by the guys at Spoon Sports USA, not Japan. Being that it's the first USDM Civic Type R racecar that's come out of Spoon, I knew they were going to make it perfect.

    Just like they did with KW for the suspension, Spoon should do the same for its future racing and tuning seats.

    Spoon front bumpers are much more presentable than the bulky stock ones w/o out the lip. plus the spoon tires have the appropriate size keeping up the traditional spoon wheels compare to the big size regular low profile ones 👌

    Awesome video! This is the most detailed overview of the car I've seen so far. I didn't realize that they were running Endless brake pads. I wonder what other parts were used that might not have been covered in this video.

    18:58 Yes! The transmission is smooth as silk. That is unless you are a lucky recipient of the dreaded 1-2 gear grind syndrome.
    Even Spoon recognizes it. So Honda you going to own that issue or pretend it doesn't exist ....

    This is SO AWESEOME!!! I wonder what the weight distribution is like considering ALL of the weight is in the front?

    • @jamesross2373
      @jamesross2373 Рік тому

      Probably handles great with all the weight up front. Softer front suspension with stiff rear suspension and it would rotate crazy well through corners.

    what are those things that look like black lines on the front windshield?

    • @dln.sweeney
      @dln.sweeney 2 роки тому +4

      Defrost lines most likely. Guessing the HVAC system was stripped out of the car but they were worried about the windshield fogging up or frosting over since the Thunderhill 25hr is held in January.

    • @shibaspeed
      @shibaspeed 2 роки тому +2

      @21:08 yes it is the defroster

    What did they ever win? They got absolutely mogged by Hyundai in the 24 hours of Nürburgring only reason why the 7 hour gap dropped to 13 mins was because of weather issues.
