Swinging for the FencesIt's here! Honda's 2011 CRF450R has officially landed in the states, and one of these dashing bikes is currently sitting in the Dirt Rider shop with traces of sweet loam underneath the fenders (not really, Jimmy washed it already for an accurate weigh in!) After riding the machine at Jeremy McGrath's private ranch just north of Mexico (less than 20 miles, to be more precise), we now have a pretty good feel for how the new Honda ticks.inline_largewraptextright0028929602/reviews/motocross/141_1009_2011_honda_crf450r_first_impression141_1009_03_z+2011_honda_CRF450F_riding_impression+jimmy_lewis.jpgtrue

Quinn Cody's Vegas To Reno Race Report
- Quinn Cody's Vegas To Reno Race Report
Friday SurpriseThe idea hit me in a basement at LAX, standing in line for U.S. Customs. I was jet lagged, had been traveling for over 30 hours, and my body was saturated with German Beer and strudel. I blurted it out, "I'm going to race Vegas To Reno!" My girlfriend Charli, just stared at the endless line. I said it again, "I'm going to race it solo!" "Are they going to stamp my Passport here?" She said, with a puzzled look, Char was obviously just as delirious as I was, and didn't even acknowledge my ridiculous idea.inline_largewraptextright0028926203/news/race_reports/141_1009_jcr_honda_quinn_cody_vegas_to_reno_race_report141_1009_02_z+vegas_to_reno_race_report+JCR_honda_quinn_cody.jpgtrue

Identity Crisis: 2011 Honda CR-Z
- Identity Crisis: 2011 Honda CR-Z
The show car's cool styling got noticed, but so did the hybrid badge. So we can't help but wonder: is the 2011 Honda CR-Z just another hybrid for fuel-economy dorks or a hot hatch for cool dudes?Honda's CRX is something of a legend, one of those cars about which everyone seems to have memories. Fond memories at that, usually involving an ultracool college-age dude who drove the wheels off one. The first-generation Honda Insight, on the other hand, is a car that the in crowd probably doesn't even remember, but it was pure dork delight. With an aluminum unibody, it was the first hybrid to reach the U.S. and posted the highest EPA combined fuel economy number of all time: 53 mpg (49/61 mpg city/highway).inline_mediumwraptextright0033936165/reviews/driven/1009_2011_honda_cr_z_identity_crisis2011-honda-CR-Z-nerd-and-cool.jpgtrue

A Little Insurance Can Go A Long Way.Project S2K
Oil starvation is a serious issue and has claimed the life of many high-performance engines. While most production oiling systems are perfectly adequate for around-town use on street tires, oil-supply issues often arise on a racetrack with sticky DOT competition tires or slicks. This is because as lateral acceleration or g-forces increase, the unconstrained engine oil moves to the edges of the oil pan and away from the pickup. It only takes a fraction of a second with a dry oil pickup to cause bearing damage and engine failure.inline_mediumwraptextright0029956465/tech/modp-1009-honda-s2000-tuning-accusumpmodp_1009_01_o+honda_s2000_tuning_accusump+project_car.jpgtrue

This Sin City S2000 Just Hit The HP Jackpot!Joel Arceo's '04 S2000
"I won't mod it." "It's just a daily." If either of these sounds remotely familiar, you're not alone. Most all of us have been, or will be, in that very same predicament at some point. The pressure that mounts as you envision turning a simple "A to B" vehicle into a new tinker toy is mind boggling. Joel Arceo of Las Vegas, NV, is no different. "I had a turbo hatchback making 440whp on pump gas, and I was rebuilding it when I decided an S2000 would be a good daily driver." Las Vegas has a lot of sun and pretty ladies, so a drop top sports car seemed like the perfect stock daily for anyone. Apparently, Joel isn't just anyone.inline_mediumwraptextright0028702196/features/htup_1009_2004_honda_s2000htup_1009_01_z+2004_honda_s2000+passenger_side_front_view.jpgtrue

If you're anything like me, you don't make it to as many Honda-related gatherings as you'd like. I mean, there are just so many nowadays. But if you're anything like me, you never miss an Eibach Honda meet. No matter how you look at it, the Eibach meet is the de facto gathering for Honda heads. It's where new projects debut and where old ones say goodbye. It's where screen-names are put to faces and, incidentally, real names. It's where build threads turn out to be real Civics and Integras...never mind whether or not they arrived on flatbeds. It's where more Hondaphiles convene all at once than anywhere else on Earth. As far as forum hounds are concerned, it's the two-dimensional bastion that is the internet come to life.inline_mediumwraptextright0028736444/events/htup_1009_2010_eibach_meet_top_pickshtup_1009_01_z+top_5_picks_from_this_years_eibach_meet+aaron_bonk.jpgtrue
