Final Reveal for the ARTA Team Pair of NSX-GTS for the 2023 SUPER GT season.🤯
ARTA revealed its latest 🔥 designs ahead of the final pre-season test at Fuji Speedway, showcasing two distinct color designs on its #8 and #16 cars that represent 'day and night.' The #8 NSX-GT (top) features the team's signature Autobacs dayglo coloring across the entire car, as opposed to just the front half in previous years. In contrast, the #16 (bottom) car boasts a general black body with red accents on the rear wing, mirrors, front splitter, and dive planes.
In a nod to their new partner team, both ARTA cars proudly display the renowned Mugen 'eye', as the squad merged its own GT500 operation with Aguri Suzuki's namesake team during the offseason.
If you are looking to catch these two beautifully designed cars in action don’t forget to tune into the 2023 Super GT season starting April 14.
John Cena Said What about the Honda Civic Type R? 🤨
@functionandform @johncena drives a Civic Type R! 👌❤️🚗💨 clip from Whiskey Gigner Podcast #civictyper #fk8typer #johncena #hondaboys
The Man, the Myth, the Legend is surprisingly a big car enthusiast, and thanks to an interview on the Whisky Ginger Podcast you get to hear Cena talk about his daily driver. When Cena, said his daily was a 2020 Honda Civic Type R the host Andrew Santino was in disbelief. John Cena exclaimed,
"It's got tech, it's manual, it's reliable….It's a 2020 and it's got a third pedal. At 145 [mph] it's stable. It's got seats in the back, I can actually pick people up."
John Cena may speed on the highway but his choice of using the Honda Civic Type R as his daily driver is quite an unusual shock for someone of his popularity and stature. However, Cena's choice shows you that the Type R is not only a popular high-performance car, but it's also practical enough for daily use. Who knows, maybe we'll see more celebrities and enthusiasts following in Cena's footsteps and driving this iconic Honda model on a daily. But it sure, makes me consider following in his footsteps as well.
Would You drive a Civic Type R for your Daily? |
When Honda Engineers get bored ⚡
What would you build with unlimited resources and three teams of brilliant engineers? The answer is simple, you take a bone-stock CR-V Hybrid and turn it into an 800HP track monster. No longer is this CR-V built for comfortable travel and fuel economy, but instead flying around a racetrack.
