Pushing this modified 2023 Honda Civic Type R FL5 at Sonoma Raceway was better than I expected. While I was a skeptic of this generation, this intelligently modified FL5 completely changed my mind. See how this FWD monster performed, and if I managed to hit a sub 1:51 lap (the car can do sub 1:50).
