Rob, the car looks fab! I think this is the only matt black NSX that I've ever seen and theres is always something special & great about black/orange car combo in motorsport!
What are your plans for the other NSX?

From what I heard its a wrap ... been in the design stage for a few weeksOriginally Posted by NSXGB
Matt Balck was my other option but too close to what I had, hence the choice to go White.
Looks good Rob, when does it turn a wheel in anger?

It is a wrap, yes. It's actually satin, we were warned matt would be easily scuff. As you can imagine in a bustling race environment this is easy. I have a matt black race helmet and it sadly scuffed within minutes!
We're hoping it is ready for the October Britcar 500 race. Even if it's not quite ready, it will at least be on display and within the brochure etc.
Everyone is still very much invited!
The car will be road-legal too so i'll probably take it to a few meets.

Being a fan of Honda engines, I later went to Honda's Tochigi Research Center on two occasions and requested that they consider building for the McLaren F1 a 4.5 liter V10 or V12. I asked, I tried to persuade them, but in the end could not convince them to do it, and the McLaren F1 ended up equipped with a BMW engine.

Are you going to make the grid Rob? Looks like the weather is going to be kind for the race.
I'm going to try a come along to watch/support on Sunday.
I don't suppose you're short of a driver for the weekend are youI even have a matt black helmet to match the car
Good luck and drive quickly but conservatively, 6 hrs is a looooong time.
Cheers

Hi Mark,
Did you make it down? Sorry if you did, as the engine wasn't finished in time. The engine builder let us down really, believing he could walk into a honda dealer thinking the parts would be ready for him...
However, it was on display. I've posted more pictures on NSX Prime as it doesn't have a photo limit.

No Rob, I didn't go in the end.
I checked the schedule and the race was from 4pm on Saturday (finishing at 10pm) rather than Sunday as I originally thought.
Car looks great though, let us know when it makes its debut
