  • The guys from Project Race Car have bitten off an even bigger project for 2022. Building a 1996 EK Civic into a World Time Attack Challenger.
    We're probably going to be looking at the clubman class with this build, and no doubt is it going to be difficult, but with the support of Bosch Motorsport Australia we'll be documenting the journey.
    Exploring how we go about making changes to a car that's basically stock and turn it into a track weapon. We may even K-swap it. Who knows.
    Join Trav & Dan for episode 1 where we pick up the Civic and get it across to it's first track day to establish a bit of a base time at SMSP.

    I have been watching all kinds of racing on this channel since Jordan Cox went bananas on Mt Panorama 4 or 5 years ago. This silly UA-cam algorithm just showed me your build video. I’m truly all about this build! That’s why I was a bit star struck to read that your channel noticed my little build on my channel.
    I’d love to spin some wrenches on your TA car and crack a beer with the guys.
    I’m excited to see what’s next! Cheers!

      We're pumped the algorithm got this to you and you enjoyed it mate! & Definitely would welcome spinning some spanners!
      Don't be starstruck by us, just a couple of regular guys having some fun and making our way! We actually have a Colorado connection as well, so maybe there will be that chance to check out your build on one of Dan's trips to visit family!
      There's a little bit of racing from NASA a few years ago on the channel: ua-cam.com/video/fMy1x1DUh-w/v-deo.html

      @@BlendLineTV that’s awesome! I’d be more than happy to have Dan over to check out the build.
      I happen to also have an Australian connection, my wife and father-in-law are from there. I’ve only been once and we’re overdue to visit again. Our family is in and around Melbourne.

    Fun fact
    The spot in Laverton you guys picked it up from,the opening scene from Mad Max was filmed along Cherry Lane

      That is awesome! We must admit we didn't even realise!

      Hopefully we don't do a mad max action sequence of our own in this car! 😂

    The difference between a 2:09 and a 2:05 is just tyre pressures and balls

    • @BlendLineTV

      Sure is! We actually got down to a 2:00 by the final session of the night without any changes to the car.

      It's all about the budget for us, and while we have valuable assistance from Bosch Motorsport, we needed something we could build ourselves within a what is a realistic opportunity for those of us with real world jobs :)
