Watch Honda build a Civic Si production-based racer
If Formula 1, NASCAR, and even Le Mans have you disenfranchised with the dollars being poured into most race series' these days, you might find the following video from Compass 360 Racing to be quite illuminating. Following the transformation of a bog-standard Honda Civic Si into a fully prepared car destined to compete in the Grand Am Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge, the video demonstrates what goes into building the cars that provide motorsports enthusiasts with perhaps the most entertaining form of motor racing available: production-based racing. Perhaps even more interestingly, the video also showcases precisely how the "win on Sunday, sell on Monday" ethos has been translated into the 21th century.
