Then… the third lap into his first session of the day, the engine decided to let go. We left Las Vegas and drove the car all the way 300 miles to Buttonwillow raceway, along the way the car performed as it should, showing no signs of failure, knocking, ticking, pinging, or any other telltale sign that an engine was near the end of its life. Before the fourth and final track day we had actually done a valve adjustment and a few other maintenance things to it to make sure it would be remained reliable and healthy for Buttonwillow event. Remember that he bought the car used, and he had already put three previous track days on it. Things like AP2 retainers and upgraded timing chain tensioner. This is where I witnessed firsthand the potential for there being an “NFR Curse.” Keep in mind that this was the fourth event he was doing on the car, and that the car came already with upgrades that you would need to do to an S2000 to keep it dependable on the track. About 4 months ago I accompanied him on a trip to Buttonwillow raceway so that I could document what all goes into driving to an out of state event. but was it a sign of the NFR Curse? Within that time, he has also tracked it four times. This turned out to be nothing, as it was reset and never came back on.

Patrick purchased the car 8 months ago in San Jose CA, and along the drive back to Vegas he got a CEL. But I’m going to let you decide as we talk about all the setbacks that have happened to Patrick’s New Formula Red S2000 since he took ownership of it. So, is there such a thing as a NFR curse? Some people think there is, and I’m only talking in small numbers compared to the people that believe in the Y-49 curse. Sometimes you just need to accept the fact that if you park your car outside and it gets hit by a trash truck, or a telephone pole falls on it, you shouldn’t have even been parking your car outside in the first place, because that is only stacking the odd against you for something bad to happen. If you never knew about a curse, and dreadful things randomly happened to your car you would just chalk it up as bad stuff happening to your car? But introduce the knowledge or belief of a curse and you now have something to blame the bad stuff on. I feel that the only thing that makes a curse relevant is the placebo or manifestation that goes along with it. For me though, I’m not really a superstitious person nor do I believe that there are such things as curses. As you can see the world genuinely believes that these cars, in that color are cursed. There is even a whole community of owners that are called WHY-49, the group mainly is just ironic comedy about what terrible things have happened to each other cars.

If you google “Y-49 curse” you will come across countless stories about how people that own yellow CRX’s with the color code Y-49 always have terrible things mysteriously happening to their cars. If you’re somewhat into Honda’s, then you will know about or have at least heard of the “Y-49 Curse.” Y-49 is the color code for the yellow CRX, which has been dubbed by many as a cursed color.
