History
The vehicle is one of 20 Honda Ractory Race Prepared cars bought to Australia for the Gold Coast Indy in Y 2000.
The event was called the Young Guns. Marcos Ambrose won the event in our car before becoming a Back-to-Back Supercar Champion and heading off to USA.
It went AWOL for 5 years before re-emerging as an "Improved Production Car" (IPC) successor category to Group A.
More recently it set IPC U2L Lap Record at Bathurst, and has won "Back-to-Back" IPC State Championships in NSW in 2019 and 2019.
The car now races in WA where it scored a Class Win 1st time out in IPC U2L at Barbagallo Raceway. COVID 19 then stopped play.
