#001 Honda Civic Type R

Hunter’s Type R at a CU Boulder Car Club meet.

Feature #001 is a 2018 Honda Civic Type R, driven by Hunter. Follow him on Instagram @hunt.typer

Hunter’s Type R is set up as a dual duty track car, which can be driven to and from events. He knows his car inside and out, doing as much of the work on the car as he can himself.

“Its had a bit of bad luck, having been rear ended 3 times and oil starved on track, so it’s on its second motor.” - Hunter

Despite the bad luck, this car sees plenty of track time throughout many Colorado race events.

Hunter’s passion and respect for racing have earned him his spot as Real Car Culture’s #001 feature.
