Laps of LeMans!!! Part 2 of 3! NSX Club Europe 2025 Tour with our full laps of the legendary Circuit de la Sarthe used in the 24hrs of LeMans. We were blessed to be able to take some spicy touring laps of the full 8.4 miles of this track, cruising around in the tire tracks of legends who've competed in or won the 24hrs of LeMans. Bucket list material for-sure!!!

Part 1 of 3! NSX Club Europe 2025 Tour at LeMans Classic!!! The main reason we shipped our NSX from the U.S. to Europe was to join in at this event with our own car. In this episode we arrive at the event, fix another small problem, and then check LeMans off of the bucket list of tracks to drive!

![NSX Rear Lower Ball Joint DIY | [slightly scary!] 😬](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/rYpOSp2V-1Y/mqdefault.jpg "NSX Rear Lower Ball Joint DIY | [slightly scary!] 😬
In this DIY, we remove and replace a rear lower ball joint on a 1st gen NSX. This may seem slightly scary as it does involve wielding a big hammer around aluminum parts, but it will save you potentially $1000 vs. buying a whole new knuckle from Honda/Acura.

![Hot Lap Throwback🔥 | NSX @ PBIR [Zombie Track]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/vPXwSLAVl_c/mqdefault.jpg "Hot Lap Throwback🔥 | NSX @ PBIR [Zombie Track]
Throwback hot lap! Pushing our NSX at one of the last events at Palm Beach International Raceway. A potential zombie of a track, PBIR closed in 2022, was sold, then not-sold, and then was up for sale again last year with The RPM Group and potentially others exploring a path to re-opening the track. Fingers crossed that our YouTube eulogy from 2022 can be re-written into a come-back!
