Ayrton Senna test drove the First Generation NSX with a few tips here and there that he felt would make the car handle much better! Honda Listened!
With the New Generation NSX, you can guarantee that somewhere in the design line, Ayrton was in the minds of Honda!
Car: Honda NSX Gr.3
Track: Autódromo de Interlagos
Discipline: 122/84
Tires: Racing Super Soft
The Original Street Version of this Car has 2 Hybrid Motors for the 2 individual front wheels, Making this “Mid-Engine Rear Wheel Drive” into a”Hybrid-All Wheel Drive”
I cannot say the same about the Gr.3 Version though… I believe that Gr.3 regulations requires all registers cars are to be Rear Wheel Drive ONLY
Because of this face, I cannot give a proper review FOR the NSX Gr.3 Specifically, because it honestly feels like every other race car!
Well done Travis for an awesome hot lap! Brought to us by Mike (PSN: Capt_Awesome14) at “Gran Turismo Sport: Tuning & Competitions“.
