FROM TODAYS HEADLINE STORY ON ULTIMATECARPAGE.COM
One of the most amazing motorsports programs of the recent years has been Acura's assault on the ALMS. The Japanese company's approach was far from conventional, but it paid off in a big way. With two races to go the Patron Highcroft team is just four points shy of the leader in the LMP2 class. With the Acura ARX-01b (http://www.ultimatecarpage.com/car/3824/Acura-ARX-01b.html) they scored several class victories as well as an overall win against the mighty Audi R10. Our article gives an interesting insight into the surprising mix of ingredients that has resulted in all this success.

Honda may be in the famous "transition period" in F1 but congratulations to Acura in the States who are doing great things. You can often catch the Japanese assault on ALMS on channel 413 on Sky TV if you have it.
PS. I wanted to post this thread on Honda News but the system prevented entry.
PPS. I wonder does NSXCB need a stand alone motorsport catergory like Prime to discuss Honda track/NSX mods/events/classics/F1 issues etc?
PPPS. Added some NSX Super GT Japan pictures to support the motorsport case, hope you like them:D
