2015 Type R new trailer


I've watched this about 20 times now. The small rev at the end nearly made me have a crisis haha
 
Anyone notice the ring logo on the back of the hoody?
Very confident still, perhaps they've already broken the record and are waiting to release the time/video around the release of the car?
Considering they are still showing a lot of confidence about the whole fwd ring record, would seem they think they've got it all under control.
 
I'm sure I've said it somewhere here before, Honda won't want to beat the record by the skin of their teeth. They want to spank it.

I think the Type R will show the whole car scene, just who's boss.
 
Going to need some fancy tech I think,
The seat has an electronic differential from what I've read and automatically adjusts to every corner.
Obviously the megane doesn't have this but it's a lightweight version with renaults ring experience.
Unless honda have some form of ground breaking tech I doubt they'll be smashing any records tbh, I hope I'm wrong though!
 
power of dreams man. A company that size, with the quality of the R&D they have on board, can make it possible :) fingers crossed
 
Yep. They are very confident about it so must have something lol
They always built good fwd cars back in the day though. Only time will tell. I can't wait personally lol
 
I hope the release car has the aero of the concept car though

some of the spy snaps ive seen thus far look very bland compared to the concept car doing the rounds in the media

dont like the quad exit exhaust either, first mod is a dual can titanium system on mine haha
 
Apparently the civic has already unofficially lapped in the 7:55. range.

Considering they still have plenty of time to still develop, then even more time to accommodate any optional extras like decent sticky tyres, lighter base spec options and such. That is if they really need to.

I just hope that they plan on upgrading the base spec as much as possible to achieve it instead of having all these extra's that the likes of renault/ seat have fitted to increase the pace of their cars.
 
3 seconds faster on the Nordschleife isn't that difficult to achieve, should be doable then to be faster than the Megane Trophy 275R.
 
That was a bit odd, but I'm still looking forward to it next year. I like the confidence from Honda.

Any of you lot see yourself selling your EK9, putting in some extra cash and going for it?

I already have a bidder for my left kidney :) All I need to do now is sign away my soul and I'll be picking it up ;)
 
Yea its a weird ad but looks amazing. Hopefully the finished article is close to this concept. Really wasn't impressed with the images of the car a few months back going round the ring
