JDM Fanwhores - Berk Technology & Spoon Sports

One of the cool shots from this weekend. Bonanni driving the Berk Technology 135i and Dai Yoshihara in the Spoon Sports RHD Civic. This was also the finishing position of the race. The BMW was classed in the faster/higher HP category, with the Honda in the lower HP category with more handicaps.

It was my first time meeting Dai Yoshihara and he a commensurate professional on the track and carries himself with class off the track. It really was a pleasure pitting with him and going out to dinner with his crew.

It was a fun weekend and always great to start the racing season off with a win!

Thanks for looking:

I wonder why Spoon choose to use the sedan over the coupe. Maybe a more rigid chassis like the old E36's? Good shots and congratulations on the win. The aerodynamic work you guys did to the front make the car look super aggressive.

There is no coupe in Japan. This is the Type R. It's not a bad car.

My brakes are fucking killer. They are Performance Friction monoblock calipers, 2pc floating rotors. They are miles ahead of the competition with lots of proprietary features such as 16 brake pads vs. 8, patented piston design, and calipers individually CNC'ed out a chunk of forged aluminum.

Our custom setup worked so well that Performance Friction added it to their lineup of aftermarket big brake kits. Anyone can order them now for right around $3900.
