Civic vs Integra Battle for the Win! - Gridlife NJMP
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 вер 2022
- Ben Lin's transmission is broken on the Evo from Gridlife Midwest, so Ben Thorn compete's alone with his civic at NJMP.
Following a disappointing finish at Gridlife Midwest, Ben turns his attention to NJMP. With a new suspension setup and help from sim training, there's a chance of victory. The closest competition of the season so far, battling for thousands of a second against his arch nemesis, Grant Davidson in a nearly identical car.

Never stop making these videos
Jimothy?
Fancy seeing you here.
you guys should meet up and do a collab man. maybe g&g guys try your team's praga when they're in uk? ;)
I think it’s time the G&G boys get a tire sponsor. Roll to grid life with 2-3 sets
Might think about bringing extra wheels and tires. Seems like your run into these types of issues a lot. Small inconveniences that could easily be fixed if you brought extra sets
somewhat weird that they don't bring at least 2 extra wheels...
I had an extra set of wheels with me, but they were the oiled set from the last gridlife round. I didn’t want to buy two brand new sets for this event because I couldn’t spare the money. Brought the oiled set as an emergency, thankfully I was able to just buy one new tire instead.
Tires, brakes, rotors are a a must when at the track...if not there go your sessions.
@@GearsandGasoline fair enough!
@@GearsandGasoline we all have a budget I get it!
Would love to see more in car driving footage! Maybe even a second video of just raw in car and peddle cam stuff of both Bens so it doesn’t interrupt the production of these style videos.
Follow us on IG and TikTok, we post up our full laps on there.
Yeah I like seeing the best full hotlap. It should be in the main video, but I'll look to Instagram.
I've come to look forward to Saturday mornings now, eagerly waiting for the next episode to release. You guys have inspired me to push forward with my goals and dreams of finally building my Miata for track fun. This winter should be awesome for me.
Thanks for the great content G&G!
Miata’s are great track fun!
@@GearsandGasoline Great track car.... And 7000 mile road trip car 😂
Miata Is Always The Answer.
Yeah good point. This is a Saturday highlight for me too. (:
Andy just casually brings his dyno to the track, what a boss lol. Does he do that for all Gridlife events that he goes to?
edit - I was wrong it's Gridlife's dyno, thanks guys
That’s not his dyno, that’s Gridlife’s mobile dyno
That’s gridlife’s dyno used for gltc compliance. They trailer it to all events
That would be interesting if he brought it to all Grid Life events. LOL
being so fast you are suspected of cheating, yet not cheating.
The ultimate compliment.
No matter how this video ends... you already won, right there.
@3:16 my first thought is to de-bead clean wheel and tire and see if it hold air.
Yeah was probably just some dirt/rocks jammed in the bead. I was super surprised they got a new tyre too.
Ikr just clean the rim and apply something called bead sealer and it would be good to go
“I would hate to win by mechanical,” I really appreciate and respect the sportsmanship with the time attack competitors. Like the respect and camaraderie I see is awesome. Makes me wish the time attack stuff was closer to my area.
It took 3 years in making the best Honda EK9 & DC2 content, this one I love the most on track race, u are truly Honda guru, Good job Ben!
Love how no stone is left unturned here and the competitors respect and admire each other so much! 10/10
Enjoyed this one more than some of the recent Civic track videos. Seeing the front lip come off the Integra and then you removing the rear bumper, chasing that extra speed was awesome!
Yeessssss! I love these videos! Thanks for sharing your adventures with us, guys. Always a great way to start my weekend: a cup of coffee with Gears and Gasoline. This is the life! 😃
the take out is its the 1 tenth of a seond, 1-3 HP and the will power to push beyond norms. kudos to both both and excited for the next episode.
Best racing series/documentary/channel.. I just love the way you and Ben make your videos .. never boring always showing every detail without it being boring.. you guys have just always had the right formula for car content to always be awesome..
i cant believe that dude had to make that splitter in the paddock that day.... it was so hot. Kudos to him for busting his ass like that.
Man I can't describe how much I'm enjoying the contents of this channel. Loving every second of it.
It's so nice to watch videos like these after a stressful day at school. Never stop making videos.
Love from Philippines
Even though it took extra time to grab a new tire, I liked seeing that journey. It really made the video more dynamic. Keep up the awesome work!
The quality of content these guys produce is honesty unmatched on UA-cam. Absolutely brilliant, even better than companies with large budgets like motortrend.
Hell yeah, love watching these track events. Keep up the good fight Ben.
Congrats guys!!! Love the content and quality
Damn! Awesome video! Thats the kind of content I love!
I love this content. Is the drama I like to see. Raw, automotive, keep it coming. Keep up the grind 💪🏽🔥
Battle of the ages! Civic vs Integra, who’s your money on?
I hope next battle I will see you at 1st place Ben always wishing you a good luck ! .. As per Keiichi Tsuchiya said before " a well balanced car will be your best weapon" ..
It's great watchingyou guys evolve from enthusiast into to actual race drivers. It's like a real life Initial D. Love the content!
Ben's Civic looks a bit too loose compared to the Integra at 9:10 and 10:48.
Could be loosing some time recovering from the slide.
Ben's driving has improved dramatically! Great job.
noticed that too. but wont that help him make the turn quicker and getting out the corner a tad faster? although the tires have to work extra harder to keep the traction
@@hungryalien Time recovering is time lost.
Love the content. Hoping for more frequent uploads 👍🏼
Rooting for you man hope you win next time. Great video
This was the most epic battle to watch live!
The quest for speed is fun and maddening at the same time. Great video.
Your car is epic dude, huge respect crom cape town south africa. Brilliant
Keep up this content guys, I love this.
These Grid Life videos are great for both the Bens.
Always look forward to the new gears and gasoline every Saturday 💪🏼
Been waiting for another video. Keep it up as always G&G
Your videos make saturdays a heck of a lot better!
What a fun event to watch you guys battle it out for every session!
You too buddy!
20+ yrs later and we're still racing those civics and integras... just goes to show how great honda used to make those cars....
Looks like so much fun!!
Love this channel!
Classic civic vs integra battle, can’t wait for the next video
Holy crap you are absolutely throwing that thing around. Those slowmo shots are incredible!
Man I love this series, both the Evo and the Civic get me hyped.
I was never into time attack until gears and gasoline, great storytelling, good work!
That was my favorite Grid Life episode that i have seen.
Such great videos. This what I look forward to on Saturday’s now as an adult lol
Great memories and awesome event all around. You guys were absolutely flying! I had no hope of catching up lol
Keep up the great work!!!🔥👍🏽
That four wheels drift slo-mo was *chef kiss* !
Holy hell! Didn’t think I’d see myself on here. Black ND Miata at 2:24. Woo!
kudos for having the best engine sound recordings on yt
Very excellent. Thanks for sharing your world! Cheers from Tampa Bay 🌴🤙🏼
Content is great but Luc's work and the post production make these videos incredible.
That is true time attack “racing”! Two drivers with a identical rule set going all out, pushing the cars and themselves to the limit! And those two are a class act! Be proud of that 2nd place!
When I race, I don’t care for the times, I only care that I pushed myself as hard as the next guy!
Great video. Time attack is exciting
It's so cool seeing you go places I go for stuff too, that tire rack is the only place I pick tires up from! As a delawarian we appreciate you lol
10:44 that’s an epic shot and fantastic driving!
Ben's most controversial opinion yet...that delaware rocks
Some of the shots of the car sliding through the corners are fckn awesome! Just shows how well planted that car is!
you guys set the bar so high when some other people said they will break youtube with new release, always ends up disappointment for me 😂😂
nice work there!
Well done 👏
Happy you could Visit Delaware!, Dun Rite is great up there, and Tire Rack is nothing but wonderful people in the New Castle Facility.
Love this series and watching what you have done with this car, and how you have developed as a driver, Ben T.! What are you using for datalogging? I'm building an EK hatch, hoping to run GL Street class for a few events next year, have a GSR swap for now, but will probably go K24 sooner than later.
I race a K-powered RSX in endurance and have found that it is faster around the track without the rear wing (NRG carbon wing with 5 degree angle of attack on custom mounts). But my drivers prefer the wing for a more stable feel at high speed. Lots of variables, and differences, I know, but just an FYI. Great effort on your part! enjoyed the video.
At 9:35....this is Ben's "I love the smell of Napalm in the morning" moment!
Congratulations Ben. It's fun watching you compete with that Civic. I wonder what you'll be able to accomplish at the next session?
Championship White Mia (Mea) 👏🏽👊🏽🙏🏾💪🏽😍🤑😤
I remember watching ur video with you pulling the B16B Jdm motor out and painting her Championship White 🥰
You should be proud of yourself Ben, you are very Blessed to do the things you love 🙏🏾 Also to be around good peoples to help you get here, Andy is a mad man for K swaps and gifted 👊🏽 Thank you for sharing, makes my day 😌
The competitiveness in Ben is real 😀😀 we do what we do to try and get that win.
G&G on Saturday! Great video as always
Man this looks epic. Such good coopetition with Grant
Congrats on making podium! 💪
That's my home track! Well, tracks, NJMP has both Thunder and Lighting. Nice to see some good racing in the decrepit state I live in.
Awesome stuff 👍
the slow motion shots really show the level your pushing the car to and its wild.
Thats crazy to think I live like 40 minutes from Delaware Memorial Bridge🤣 I wanna meet you guys some day. Love the GridLife videos. Definitely something I wanna do in the future
These grid life videos make me start to think about making my Prelude into something competitive.
Love me a good class rivalry. Ben really tried but still cool to see him get so close.
Anxiously waiting for the LRP Gridlife video.
Y’all brought out a Dyno to the track 😭 that’s fucking commitment!
Love these track videos man 🔥
Inspired as usual
PRODUCTION QUALITY LEVEL = DAAAAMN!
Dope that’s 30mins away from my house. Those tracks are sick too
Hey shout-out Delaware! Wish I knew you were in my area Ben, literally live 5 mins away from that tire rack warehouse and Dun rite tire
You guys were twenty minutes from me! So mad I didn’t know about it!
watching this was Uhh llota fun!
This is intense dude
Greetings from Germany. Love youre videos ✌️
If big ben had the content that short ben has it would be amazing. The lancer breaks every 3 laps, mr2 is a 24 hrs of lemons car
This was a hot video for my home track.
First time viewer, wish we had the full flying lap of the 1:28:880 for the in car cam! great driving though!
Being that you're so close, do you think it's just the overall car in general? As much as I LOVE hatches, we are taller and less aerodynamic than a sedan like the integra. I know the interior is stripped pretty bare, but have you guys considered lightening up the roof and if needed, adding ballast as low as possible?
Loving these time attack videos. 💛💛
Yaaaay Tire Rack, I pick up my tires from the Wilmington warehouse all the time. 😁👍
that's good TV...well done
my favorite saturday evening(Philippine time zone)entertainment ❤️
shame with the tire issues, fingers crossed the next event goes smoothly!
Please keep up with the gridlife content
I think you might have been running a little too close to the guy who took first place in the last session. As much as the slipstream helps on the straight the lack of fresh cooler air might have hindered your ability to power out of the corners and the dirty air creating less downforce. You were sliding around quite a bit behind him. But that's my opinion.
Man I used to live in Millville when I was a kid, so cool they have a race track!
AAAA team dynamic pro race 1.2s on the teggy ! in running them on my fiesta st. Good job Ben!
