Top Fuel Honda S2000

Posted on by

Yokohama did this interview with Hirano-san, the owner of the Top Fuel Honda Tuning Workshop in Japan, as a promotion for this year’s World Time Attack Challenge. Top Fuel was invited to bring their turbo S2000 that held the Tsukuba RWD time attack record for 3 years to compete this year. Hirano-san decided to completely rebuild the car to bring it to the WTAC. The video isn’t so much about the details of the car, but Hirano-san’s philosophy towards running his shop. He explains what the difference between a race car and a tuning car. It’s pretty interesting to hear what he believes to be proper etiquette for how tuning shops should interact with their customers. Top Fuel’s successful 28 year history shows that it’s working.
