Is it too much to ask that we make a little bit more effort with thread titles?

Thy wish is my command 👍

Great news right that Button will race the 1000km?

The worst kept "secret" in the Super GT paddock is finally confirmed! I'm stoked though, it'll be awesome to see him give it a go. And great for Mugen too, with their lackluster driver lineup.

That's awesome news! Must admit it's a very pleasant surprise, as I didn't realise he was interested (why I thought that I don't know). Either way, will be great to see how things go, as Honda's Super GT program could do with a boost.

Will he serve that grid penalty there?

 

[AudiMan2011]

How long will this Honda last before the engine goes?

Yeah, is it a big red button, or a clothes button, or what? Be more precise dude.

Of course not. That's an F1 penalty.

How long will this Honda last before the engine goes?

Somewhere between 750-800 KM. Whilst in the lead.

Nah, at the 130R, last lap, whilst in the lead... during a hail storm, at precisely 4:38pm, with wild elephants racing across the track, followed by one baby zebra.

Also the Zebra's name is "Honda" so in the background Button hears the screams of "Hondaaaaaaaaaaa!!!" but doesn't know why yet.

Of course not. That's an F1 penalty.

Ha Ha. How do YOU know that was a joke? YOU didn't post it!

That's from Honda's fan appreciation day at the end of last year when Jenson drove a 2016 spec NSX Concept GT.

This will be his ride for the 1000km this year, the new for 2017 NSX-GT:
