Honda must aim to emulate Nissan and win next year's SUPER GT title in the first year with the new Civic Type R-GT next year, believes Tomoki Nojiri.
Earlier this year, Honda announced it retire the NSX-GT in favour of a radical new GT500 model based on the Civic Type R road car, which made its first on-track appearance at Okayama in July . The car made a further outing at Motegi in September, and was then driven by Nojiri in a demonstration run during last weekend's season finale at the same track. Speaking to Motorsport.
Fifth at Motegi shows 'current potential' of ARTA Nojiri concluded a frustrating final season with the NSX-GT eighth in the standings, as he and team-mate Toshiki Oyu experienced an up-and-down year sharing the #8 ARTA car. The pair came away with a single victory at Sugo, inherited when the Real Racing Honda was disqualified, but otherwise managed only one other podium finish in a wet Okayama season opener.
