NSX machines in the top class came 2nd, 5th, 8th and 10th.

A much better result than the other rounds due to a transition from a turbo engine to a newly developed NA engine.

Honda introduced this new engine in this round, and it led the ARTA Team consisting of Drivers Ralph Firman (EX Jordan F1) and Daisuke Ito to Pole Position for the race.

After the race, they fin a strong 2nd, 10 places higher than their efforts in last round at Fuji International Speedway (2005 configuration).

Congrats to ARTA and Honda Racing Japan for their successes.

The next round is Sportsland Sugo. Time for Honda's to take over Nismos supremacy.
