Some pics I forgot to post last year from that honda-tech thread. Pretty cool to look back on this team, same guys, different car, different name.

Its been tradition that the Japanese engineers treat the team members to dinner on the wednesday night of the Japanese GP for years now. Because I was helping in the the garage I was welcomed along. We all met up at a Korean BBQ place and had a blast here you see them in the middle of some drinking game


Fuji-san thursday morning seen from the hotel parking lot.


Brake fluid reservoirs attached to the steering rack. one reservoir for the front, one for the rear.






the 2 front rotors sandwiching the 4 front brake pads. I wish streetable rotors had mountings this easy to deal with!
