Im pretty sure many of you have seen this video already, but since Im kinda new to forums, just wanted to see what you guys feel about this race thats in the link above.
Im just wondering how that NSX-R did so well against competition like the CSL, Modena, 911 Turbo ,and 2 Lambos. I know the NSX-R is a seriose car and means buisness, but technically with under 300hp and a body thats light, but not that light(2700lbs) shouldn't it have been munched up at the start of the race? It was really showin those car a thing or two. My guess would be that the guy driving the Honda was the best driver there by far. What do you guys think? I don't know much about this video. Looks like a Japanese TV show. I wonder if it's a competition of the drivers or the cars?

seen it, its an awsome race. As expected, no mater how hairy the turns are, as long as you have decent suspension for it twice the power and a bit more weight will win in the straightaway. Had the whole track been mostly turns the NSX would have won. I dont think it would ahve been 1 2 Lambo if the NSX hadnt overheated. Then agian the NSX wouldnt have overheated had it not been batleing the Mucerlargo

I just love the fact that the Ferrari got spanked by everyone.

Never seen before...great movie
Really impressed with the NSX-R moves, but the lambos just had so much more raw power in the straights, it was almost inevitable
Yeah Ferrari got pretty much stomped, and i expected a little more from the Porsche

Yeah fellas, the Lambo was just too much for those guys in my opinion on the straights. Woulda been alot more interesting if they used the Gallardo instead. But it still really does look like that the driver in the NSX-R outclasses the others.
No problem for the find guys.. You should all check that site out, I recently discovered it. Has tons of vids of everything :)
Edit: Yikes! :eek7: Oops, sorry.. Didn't even notice they used a Gallardo. Thought they were both Murcielagos. Im such a noob :redface:

nsx-r makes over 300hp even though its listed as only 280ps or 276hp. the car is also feather weight. 2700lbs may not seem like its that light but its almost 1000lbs lighter then the lambo, and 500 lbs lighter then the CSL or 500 lbs lights then the modena. you see its a feather weight.
thats also what makes it more nimbel. but as you can see it's clearly out muscled on the straights by the more powerful cars like the lambo and such.

The NSX driver was the most aggressive, Kurosawa is a really good driver. Porsche GT3 I think would do better than the turbo in this race, the driver of it wasn't very aggressive either. I was really surprised seeing Ferrari last, it was a great view though :). NSX is a great car but with room for improvements, the brakes were great though.
Anyways, nice find.

really nice find. haven't seen this one before. i was really impressed with the nsx-r. i diddnt think both lambos would pass, but they did...i still dont think there is any room for improvement in the nsx, everything is basiclly tuned to perfection. maybe a little more hp for on the straights, but not with F/I, all motor power for this handling machine :

thats from best motoring
alot of people write off the nsx as being overpriced, but they dont know its capabilities.
