TRACK ESSENTIALS
Balance, Performance Racing (BPR) was formed out of pure passion to assist those looking to improve their current car’s handling on the track. Founded by father and son, Rich and Nicky Hays, BPR was stemmed from their lifelong passion for racing. Rich, previously employed at American Honda Motor Company and was deeply involved in various professional racing programs as a lead crew chief. Nicky is a blossoming up & coming racer who has competed at the professional level in Indy NXT and Porsche Cup. When the pandemic hit, the two embarked on building a high-performance CRX race car, leading to many track records with Nicky at the wheel. The duo's expertise and experience in motorsports led to the formation of BPR, aimed at helping other owners maximize what their car is capable of.
BPR CRX
Nicky and Rich’s journey with the CRX began with a desire to build lightweight car with top-notch suspension components. When the pandemic hit in March 2020, it provided the perfect opportunity to focus on finishing and testing their CRX. Despite only being run twice for shakedowns in 2020, by early 2021, the CRX was turning heads at the track with its simple setup and exceptional performance, largely thanks to the outstanding MCS 2-way dampers. In 2022, King Motorsports, a long-time partner, further boosted the car's performance with a potent B20 VTEC engine package, resulting in a significant increase in horsepower and a considerable drop in lap times.

BPR S2000
In 2023, the opportunity to build and start developing the S2000 in a track car format presented itself, and in a short amount of time running the BPR MCS 3 way damper package has shown to be very potent with the car still having no aero and running on street A052 tires. We will continue to develop our S2000 further throughout 2024 and beyond!
