The New Honda Acura NSX GT3 Features a Lightweight Engine Setup
Rahul Kalvapalle — March 26, 2016 — Autos
The brand new Honda Acura NSX GT3 is an exceptional vehicle, only just unveiled at the ongoing New York Auto Show, that is an upgraded version of the Acura NSX that was launched in the 2015 edition of the Detroit Auto Show.
The main difference between the new Honda Acura NSX GT3 and its predecessor is the addition of a lightweight rear drive engine setup in place of a hybrid all-wheel drive system. This setup means that the vehicle actually offers less power than the NSX, but the fact that it is more lightweight and features a quality sequential racing gearbox more than makes up for that. This vehicle features a refined aerodynamics setup that allows it to absolutely zip ahead on the track.
Ultimately, the NSX GT3 proves that aerodynamic design can more than make up for reduced power.
