We stayed at Hotel Twin Ring during our fun day together with my In-laws and we bought some omiyage (souvenir) Our trip wouldn't be complete without Honda and ASIMO goods. Yours truly bought some Honda Racing and ASIMO postcards for trade ( and for myself to keep)(^_^)v

PBW--Racing Fun at Sugo

---Hot track at Sugo---

We went at Sportsland Sugo for my husband had a sports car racing fun competition together with some of his friends ( CL7 owners ) last week. Although my husband loves to simply enjoy the pace of his race while his friends are advanced racers, he is now improving his time, technique and performance. He put his heart and soul into it ( and his bank account as well lol! ). Well anyway, the car which finishes in required numbers of laps in the fastest possible time wins the race and was awarded with a prize and trophy ( we went home with a portable DVD players as his prize ) and the car which finishes with least the time receives a punishment-- the driver have to run over the circuit minus the car of course. We went all laughing and gave an applause after the driver came back running from the track. It was such a loong journey for him lol! Forgive me but I can't just publish their faces here without their permission and I have to edit some of car numbers but here's some of CL7 cars and us posted instead. For those who love the burning smell of tyre, this is for you! Enjoy!!^_^ ---Preparing for the race---
---The CL7 Team--- ---Thumbs up!! Great job!!--- ---While they're taking the photos of their CL7, I'm taking the photos of the drivers. Look at this shot!!---
---My Girls!---
---Watching their Dad doing some hot laps--- ---Mom should have at least one shot lol!---
---Future Race Queens??---

Have a nice week ahead to everybody!!

Pixel Bug Weekend

I would like to give thanks to Sassy Mom for inviting me to her new meme to play along by posting photos that gives best highlights of our weekends every Monday. I guess this is a perfect meme for me coz I am always posting my family' s weekend adventures every Monday here at Kizuna. Thank you so much!^_^

Cars are fun. My husbands real pride and joy is on his four wheels ( most especially when he' s stressed at work )and had zero mechanical trouble which amazed me. I brought my camera and managed to get some footage. Nothing special but at least proves that we were there with him at the circuit AND my husband drove to bust his stress away lol!!

My husband, an occassional racer

Hot race on a hot track!!
Wakaba and Haruka watching him race at the paddock
I don' t know if a picture could convey my feelings but I absolutely love the sounds of the cars screaming at the track and the burnt smell of the tires!

Wakaba loves his Daddy' s helmet-- cool ey?
Mom should have at least one pic again lol!

I Heart Honda 2009--- GW Episode

Challenger class

Last Golden Week Holiday, I have posted our family outings at my MIL' s Sansai Matsuri , and going to Tsuruga-jo Castle and on the climax of our Golden Week Holiday is going to a Honda event called ' I Heart Honda 2009 ' and it' s our second time to join the event wherein Honda lovers gather and experience how fun a day at the tracks can be. Just like what my husband promised when we went to last year' s Honda event, you can read the story here that he' ll be back to race on track day portion.

Before doing the race, all racers cars must do some safety acts like tapings on their head and tail lights or other small parts of the car and some parts inside the engine room to avoid accidents by dropping them off during the race. The staff wil check them on then they will be given a device ( I don' t know what to call them ) to measure the racers time attack in every laps done. The racers are divided into 3 class team--- of course, the expert class , the beginners who wants to drive on their own pace around the track, and the challenger class--and with more experience . My husband joins the challenger class ( he didn' t had some race practice before the big date ) and was complaining that he needs a new S tire for gripping---it' s not that his RE050A didn' t work it' s best, hinde lang cya magaling on tight turns and curves lol!! Don' t tell him I wrote them on lol!! \(^0^)/
For those who love Honda cars and for some car maniacs, this is for you !! ( note: I have to edit some faces and car numbers to avoid legal thingy, sorry! )

Twin Ring, Motegi

Our family went to Twin Ring, Motegi for a visit and for fun and of course Honda fans like us crowding a Honda F1 goods now 30- 50 percent off!!! T-shirts, caps, or other trinkets and would you believe that their Die Cast collectibles cost half the price!! I was in terror when I saw Jenson Button model cap I bought during Honda Thanks Day (T_T) Honda Thanks Day post read here.
And as a fan of Jenson Button, I' m happy for him to win the season - opening Australian Grand Prix yesterday and sad because of what happened when Honda announced they were selling. Congratulations, Jenson!! ^_^ Anyway, we eat our lunch there at Brickyard, an american style steak and hamburger that' s full of volume, saw ASIMO' s live show, Drift Kid' s Racer and Kid' s Drive for the children to play and of course, we also went to Honda Museum and just by looking at those great looking cars can make me go into climax!!\(^0^)/

I Heart Honda!!

Our family went to an event called ' I Heart Honda 2008 ' last summer. It was a Friday and the weather was an on and off but there's still lot of people who went there. We enjoyed the talk show, games, seeing demo cars, hot race, the drivers, but of course, experiencing to drive our own car to the circuit for free of charge! Though my husband, the driver cannot do some high full speed which I think he's not satisfied of. He'll be back again at Tsukuba Circuit next time doing some race
( with charge,of course) and us at the grandstand watching him doing some time attack. His personal best? Don't ask coz he's slow! Don't tell him I wrote them on!LOL!! For some HONDA lovers or car maniacs, here's some photos of them. Enjoy!!

I love this!!!
