Fun fact: For those who did not know what happened with that RA302 F1 car, well... it was horrific. In 1968 Honda planned on replacing the less-than-successful RA301 with the lighter RA302 made from magnesium. Thing is, magnesium alloys are a bit... sparky. Even the lightest of spark will set magnesium on fire. And dousing water made thing even worse simply because magnesium is in the same bracket as lithium, kalium and natrium. All extremely reactive. John Surtees took a look at the RA302 and said it's a death trap, immediately refusing to race with it. So the memo went to Honda and they told Honda Racing not to race with it... except that they forgot to tell Soichiro about it during French Grand Prix, so Honda's French arm decided to draft Jo Schlesser to drive it at Rouen. On lap 2 he crashed. Jo, the magnesium car, and litres of racing fuel immediately went up in flames. It was so hot that firefighters can't even get close to put down the fire. It is said the driver can smell the burning human flesh as they went lap after lap after lap while the fire still burning, melting the tarmac. After John Surtees once again refused to drive the RA302, Honda pulled out as manufacturer in F1 until 2006. One of Jo Schlesser's friend was a man named Guy Ligier, a former tractor magnate leading a company called Ligier Travaux Publics, and racing with him in WSC under Ford France banner. He also raced in F1, but after Jo was baked Guy retired and instead ran his own racing team and racing car manufacturer, Equipe Ligier. Since then all his cars bear the initial of Jo Schlesser, such as Ligier JS43 that won 1996 Monaco GP with Olivier Panis and Ligier JSP217 LMP2 racer. Nowadays Ligier, as part of Onroak Automotive, build JS2R junior GT racecar, JSP320 LMP3 racers and also building Lamborghini SC63 LMDh racecars.

[@JacobHillSBD]

See, I didn’t know this, but when he said magnesium skinned chassis and then fatal my mind went “Hey wait a minute isn’t magnesium a notoriously flammable metal?” so I looked it up and…that’s what happened.

Not a very "fun" fact, but a well written and informative comment about something I didn't know the history behind. Bravo! A very minor correction: in English it's potassium and sodium, not kalium and natrium.

Honda was working on both the V10-powered "NB" NSX and a rwd v8 platform that was to be utilized by Acura. However the new CEO, Ito Takanobu, canceled both projects. In its place we got the unwanted NC NSX with its ttv6 hybrid that nobody cared about, and the continuation of the underwhelming FWD Acura lineup. I remember how everyone was looking forward to the V10 NSX when it was first spotted on the Nordschleife, only for bitter disappointment to take over after news of the cancelation.

[@deanchur]

As soon as the Lotus Emira came out I said "That's what the 3rd NSX should have been", since it follows the original NSX philosophy far closer than Honda did (driver appeal over tech and outright performance).

[@theninethrees8044]

@@deanchurI would argue the C8 Corvette is more like what the new NSX should’ve been. Simple, practical and affordable.

[@peekaboo1575]

I'd argue that both of you are correct. It should have been a high performance car (like the c8) and one that was driver oriented, like the Lotus. Hell, the NB NSX was going to be a mixture of the R35 GTR and the LFA. There's no way that it would not have been appealing. But that's not what we got, sadly.

[@DrivingGod21]

The V6 twin turbo NSX that no one cared about. but they sold them for 10 years, they sold more than they expected, and they always sold out. It's a practical, usable, everyday supercar. The latest gen NSX is genuinely the epitome of Honda. It would have been cool to see a nsx compete with The Lexus LFA, and a smaller V8 Honda compete with the Lexus coupes. That was not in the cards unfortunately.

[@theninethrees8044]

@@DrivingGod21 what the fuck are you smoking? I work for Honda and they totally missed the mark with the new NSX. First of all, they hyped up the car in 2012 and it didn’t come out for 5 YEARS! Second, it was only on sale for 5 years and dealers in North America couldn’t move them fast enough and were sitting in lots, hence why you barely see one on the road. Third, people just went on and bought R8’s and Corvettes instead because they were far more affordable and practical and had V8’s and V10’s instead of a hybrid hiding. Nobody cares for Honda’s hybrid sports cars. The CRZ is another prime example.

[@watchnocatch171]

As a German I am ashamed to this day that DTM pushed for (presumably, not entirely sure though) a common regulation with SuperGT only to dissolve into a GT3 series. They pushed back the introduction of the turbo engines and Mercedes didn't even produce one. It's a huge let down.

Man this vid makes me want this car back soo badly! Thanks for another brilliant vid for us western Super GT fans that are still in the process of learning Japanese.

Gotta love how those Honda NSXs at the start were almost all in various Gran Turismos ❤ in fact, most of those GT cars were in GT. A shocking revelation!

Super GT vs DTM really is my perfect dream, combining my two favourite 90’s racing series’.

So glad you covered this car's story. It's a story I know well and was just as confusing then as it is now. Also really depressing when they cancelled the V10 NSX. I honestly wonder where that test mule actually ended up. Surely they had full scale models without camouflage.

Hey rofl. Maybe one day you can make a video about the early gran turismo super cars like vector and lister? I feel like i never would have known about them if it werent for those early games. I think it would be a cool subject to shed some light on since we dont really see them around anymore. Just an idea.

Good day Rofl, good to see you again. The HSV was a serious car in the GT series. Wish they would bring some of these back to GT7. Hope you had a good Easter.

An HSV-010 road car would be dope, sad that circumstances weren't on their favor back then. On the brighter side, the GT500 car belongs to a list of unique race cars in the Super GT history.
