This run is all about the connection between driver and machine: my 1998 Integra Type R DC2 screaming to 8,400 RPM up and down the Hakone Turnpike, with the Spoon N1 exhaust echoing off the mountain.




The Camera Setup


I used a dual-camera POV setup, switching between a hood-mounted low-angle view and a dedicated shifter cam to catch every heel-toe downshift and VTEC crossover.



Built to Be Wrung Out


The B18C was engineered to rev, and the Hakone uphill is the perfect canvas. From the mechanical click-clack of the DC2's gearbox to the Spoon N1 roaring through the apexes, it's a raw tribute to the golden era of Honda engineering.



Final Thoughts


Turn your volume up for this one.
