- The final part of The Gridlife Midwest Festival at GingerMan Raceway. We won Race #3 but unfortunately, due to the random invert, I have to start 12th for the final Race of the weekend. Not only that, I'm only 1 point behind Matan for the Weekend Championship and all I need to do I finish one position ahead of him to snag it! Oh, but there's a catch... It's raining and I chose the wrong tire.... Slicks in the rain, what can go wrong!?!

P12 to P3 on basically slicks tyres is a testament on how efficent the rain line is and how good of a driver your are. Well done Eric !
Thanks buddy! I appreciate it 🙏
Eric at P5 was definitely making those boys sweat!
crazy finish, that close in the rain?!
Lol, I was coming!!!
My guy is handling that civic like a yoyo!
It was indeed an epic race to watch. Masterclass in finding the Wet line and working your moves at the right time.
Another good watch! Love watching racing of any sort, but I super appreciate being able to have in-car for pretty much an entire race. Love the action.
Glad you enjoy them buddy!
Beautiful drive. This race tells you and everyone else what driver you're and what care you have put together.
PERIOD.
Love it mate I drove mine last night for the first time after re building it, it sounds just like yours
Broh P12 to P3 on those tires Man pure 🔥🐉congrats
Thanks homie!
From 12th to 3rd on those tires in those conditions 👌🏻💪🏻
Well done sir!
Man!!! I really enjoy your driving and Videos.. Great Content as usual. You have me on the edge of my seat every time!
That last lap was magic👌
Well done... I drive v730s not shaved on my street car. I get a set every summer and I was actually surprised how good they do in the rain but I can only imagine shaved. They don't send a chance if the water is building up at all but just wet they do really well. Great driving
Yes Sir Thanks for posting you're an inspiration to all of us ( The Power of Dreams)
My pleasure! Let's go HONDA!
what a drive my dude! Matan's savage with the handoff footage xD
Haha we have a pretty good friendly rivalry lol
A real dance on Eggs... was great to watch! Whit the second place in the end ... that sucks.. but ure chance will come !!
congrats bro, waS ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT
Thanks man! A fun race for sure
This reminds me of a race my dad had at mid Ohio. He went out on slicks while everyone was on rains. He ran down the leaders in his class and passed them but ended up going all the way through the gravel trap in the keyhole. He managed to get back on track and ran everyone down again. He ended up taking 3rd overall on slicks lol.
Wow brutal Congratulations Eric
Thanks!!
Good job in your videos of combining the onboard footage with the gridlife commentary.
Thank you so much!
Im so jealous. Im a big fan of the older jtcc and btcc. I even had and modified a 93 honda civic ex sedan. My favorite car.. ive always had a honda car for my hobby and just love learning and working on them. You, my friend, are living my dream .. i tried to do scca solo auto cross at pir portland..
Thanks buddy!
Great job man! 👍
Well done bud, looking for that line and the slingshot was great
I'm pretty proud of that one hah!
In rain your vision must be a little bit further than the others, thats why you raced excellent 👌 good rain race with wrong tyres is better, than regular dry win✌️
eh eh eh eric and the vents!!!... 3 wide... lol
Haha that was fun for sure!
Madddd 👌
Does. Not. Get. Old. Solid driving per usual! What that camera do thats starring at you from the passenger side? Patreon content?! 🧐
18:23 "WHO THE FUCK NEEDS RAIN TIRES ANYWAYS!" Man's a menace LOL
RAW ERIC, BEST ERIC 👌🏽
Hahaha, thats a professional documentary that will come out by Alex Freeman soon!
Haha made the cut!
The very first time I heard and saw a video about you was with Larry Chen and your old red eg. Didn't you do the same thing running the wrong tires that day? I figured you would have learned by now😂
It happens often haha
@EricKutilRacing I like your videos lots of information and entertainment specifically hearing that k24 during battle
What would be the best rain tire of your choice? thanks
Hoosier H20 but those aren't cheap and 40tw. GLTC, we need to use 200tw+ tires so my dedicated rain set is continental extreme contact sport 02s. Incredible rain grip for it not being a race compound tire
what is houghton going to do he is getting spanked by an eg, a car that is 12 years older than his. Will he stick with the TSX
I think he's doing just fine with that TSX haha
Bruhhhh..... I just saw you crash on the live feed! Hehe. Is it bad?
Fixable!
This felt like the movie rush
