S2000 CR Club Racer Edition CR stands for "club racer," conjuring up the good old days when guys drove their sports cars to the track, raced them, and then, if the racing gods were smiling, drove them home again

2011 is 100th year of Indy racing

Default 2011 is 100th year of Indy racing

Honda has won last two years of Indy race in a row
U all know s2k is originated from the experience Honda has gained from Indy racing participation throughout the history
I'm proud to be Honda CR owner and I have no doubt that the Honda will win this years race too. I have faith in Hondas engineering

I was going to say the same thing... they are the exclusive engine supplier for Indy Car.... This will change in a few years when Chevy, Lotus, and Honda will be engine options.

If you want to talk about where Honda power has its roots... you need to start with motorcycle racing and then into motorsports, the highest being F1....

Honda actually pulled their funding from Highcroft Racing so they are no longer able to do the 24 hours of le mans this year I'm kinda pissed at Honda Racing...or lack thereof.

Kinda can't blame them right now given the situation overseas... you know Highcroft and Honda won't have a LeMans entry now either right?

Yeah. It's just that ALMS was the one thing holding me on to Honda since they left F1. Now they have no good cars and aren't that involved in motorsports (I really don't count Indycar since they are currently the only engine manufacturer).
