Honda feels its has made a bigger step with its 'Spec 2' SuperGT engine this year than rival marques Toyota and Nissan:
GT500 rules dictate that all crews can use two engines per season, and as such it is common practice for manufacturers to introduce an improved ‘Spec 2’ unit for use in the latter part of the season.
While the mixed weather conditions meant that Honda’s three title-contending Bridgestone teams all suffered races to forget, the Sakura marque was nonetheless satisfied with the improvement in the NSX-GT’s top speed with the second engine. “Last year when we brought in the second engine, I think we increased our performance quite a bit,” said Onishi. “It felt like we’d completed the whole package, and I think this year’s situation is similar to last year’s.
“It’s hard to be sure how much of a step our rivals made with their second engines, but I think we have made a greater step between our first and second engines.”
