Default if we grew from apes S2K's grew from F1

back in the day F1 was a Honda sport! and because of that the car we all drive and love grew out of the racing heritage that was old f1 cars. even our dash is almost taken straight from an old F1 car. so check this thread out some of the sickest pics and vids of old f1 cars racing. honestly a must see!

We didn't grow from apes. (Evolution didn't work like that. Off topic, I know. )

I really miss the old days of F1 racing...

My old personalized plate on my S2K was: "F1 NSPRD" (F1 Inspired)

How many F1 cars has Honda made? How many has Ferrari made? Who comes close to whom? Happily good cars don't have to come from the marketing engine that is F1. I recall having this conversation with SilverstreakHX.

That was my first response as well, but the rest of the post was just as full of fail I decided not to bother

Ferrari has competed in every season of F1 since it's inception. Ferrari has always made high performance sports cars.

Honda has been in and out of F1. Sometimes they come in as an engine supplier, sometimes as a constructor, but it's never been consistent. The same goes for their sports cars. Honda has made maybe 2 or 3 of them. Yet somehow they're inextricably linked to F1.
