In today's episode, we sit down with Sonic, Ahmed, and Bari to talk about some of the most controversial races from back in the day. From racing Hondas to now owning a shop called New England Motors, Sonic and the crew have made a name for themselves by breaking world records in multiple classes, all while having some of the cleanest Hondas around.
We also discuss Batman's S2000 racing against Hesi and upcoming call outs. This episode was a fun one, so sit back, relax, and enjoy!
