Bought from Adam Curpier as a New York salvage shell in 2010, sold to Eric Peters of Seek Speed Shop, then bought back in 2012. In 2012, the car was built with a B16A2 for the H2 Honda Challenge series. The car had 9 wins, 10 pole position, and 2 track records throughout the season. It also got 2nd place at the National Championships at Mid-Ohio after starting 11th due to issues in qualifying.

The owner, Jonathan Baker, moved to the Pirelli World Challenge for the 2013 season, and the car was striped and the shell being sold to Michael Harris of Virginia Beach, VA slated to race in the H1 series of Honda Challenge with a K24 engine. After sitting with him for a year, Jonathan Baker bought the shell back, put all new equipment in, and has been racing it in H2 Honda Challenge again in 2014. The car has not finished many events due to mechanical issues, but has shown to be the fastest car in the series when it does run.

Here are some of the highlights of what the car has:

  • 32 Racing and RLZ-built B16A2 engine
  • ITR Trans with 4.923 FD
  • Spoon brakes
  • Penske shocks
  • SSR Type C wheels
