That's the second most beatiful car to ever compete in SGT after the McLaren F1
It is remarkable that when NSX entered the grid, they were racing against R32s and F40s and on their last season they raced and won against R35s.

The 1998 photo @9:51 actually shows the Mugen X Dome logos on the noses of all four cars (the white/black Mugen logo & the orange/black Dome logo just below the Honda emblems) just as you're saying Mugen and Dome split. I suspect that Mugen-Dome Project was not only the name of the on again/off again entrant (team), but that the Mugen-Dome Project was the name of the developer/constructor of the JGTC NSX GT as you explained @7:00. While the 1997 car has only the Dome logo on its nose, it appears that all JGTC NSX GTs regardless of team have Mugen X Dome logos on their noses from 1998 through 2002. From 2003-2009 they instead have the logo/wordmark of Honda Racing.

Hi Mate, I'm an American expat living in Japan and have worked in Super GT. If you ever need help with pronounciation "Kunimitsu" or "Dome". It's pronounced just as it's spelled in English with a little u at the end "Doumu". It translates as childhood dream. So not like domo (Japanese thank you) At the very least, I want to say: keep up the great work documenting these events. I loved my years in GT-it was my favorite series of all those I've worked in. To the point I never left the country. Cheers!

Right!! Thats it!! Can someone tell me why we say an engine is mounted in the "middle" of the car when it is so obviously mounted behind the driver, in the back? I'm 53 and I still haven't worked that one out!
@automobilistic8 ай бұрын
To the best of my understanding "mid engine" simply means the engine is mounted between the axels, as opposed to over the axels (as in "front" or "rear" engine cars). Mid mounted engines can either be in front or behind the cockpit, but behind is more common. In front is sometimes called "front-mid" and behind is sometimes called "rear-mid" but because most "mid engine" cars are rear-mid most people just say "mid engine", only specifying when its the more unusual front-mid layout. Don't take that as gospel but that has always been my understanding.

I always imagine “what if” Honda had stuck to the original NSX formula but updated it with 21st century technology and materials. Carbon fiber, titanium and magnesium replacing steel and aluminum. A “mated” double K20/24 4-4.8L V8, putting out 450-550hp NA. Since I am dreaming, a 6spd manual, cuz automatics, even double clutch ones suck. The crazy light materials allow Honda to keep the weight to under 3500lbs. And let’s be honest, the original NSX at 270hp was considered underpowered vs what was available back then as well. People still said it was the purest sports car they ever drove back in 1990.

Senna didn't help in designing the chassis, he just helped them find the perfect balance of the suspension geometry and driving feel that the car needs. By the time Senna was a household name, they were just done with the prototype in 1988 and by 1989, they got Senna into the whole prototype package and got him to do vigorous testing during F1's off-season which he gave extreme feedback on how the car should feel, how much the diff needs to lock or unlock and how stiff the springs needs to be and how much flex of the chassis can the driver feel. Senna did not have a say in how the chassis was gonna be made but he did give vital feedback on how to set the car up for general use which, he did real well in that manner.
