Honda is taking over primary sponsorship of the Long Beach Grand Prix. Announcement on Tuesday.

I like it. Maybe they'll have an S2000 drivers introduction lap this year. (Which puts me SOL.)

Did you know that the seating for the GP is the same seats as the Rose Parade. Always has been. Where else in greater LA is there an annual event that requires temporary seating for 75,000 people?
