First Official Photos of Honda Racing HSV-010 GT
damn... wish they'd make a road car of this:
http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2...gt-series.html
Quote:
Honda Racing has officially announced the HSV-010 GT will join Japan’s Super GT racing series this year, releasing a huge selection of photos for those who just can’t get enough of the car. Based on the discontinued NSX replacement (yup, we’re still crying about it too), the HSV-010 is powered by a 3.4-liter V8 that makes 500-ish horsepower and 289 ft-lbs of torque. While the road car was expected to be powered by a V10 and get AWD, this race car is RWD and the V8 engine is thought to be a version of the V8 found in the Acura ARX ALMS cars.
Thanks to a stripped-down interior and bountiful use of carbon fiber, the HSV-010 weighs just 2,424 lbs.
The car will debut on May 20-21st during the season opener, with four cars expected to compete.
We’ll keep our fingers crossed that a successful racing season might make Honda reconsider a road version of the car. Then again, the HSV-010 will be up against some very steep competition in the Super GT series, including several race-prepped Nissan GT-Rs.

3.4L V8 with no turbo revving to 10,000 + RPM and it's a HONDA weighing 2400lbs.
It doesn't need torque. It has VTEC
