You read correctly. NSXCC has been invited to take part in the Toronto Honda Indy on July 13 & 14 to showcase our prized possessions. In particular, 6 of our lucky members will be taking a parade lap along the legendary Exhibition Circuit. At this point very little details have been shared, but Honda has requested for all interested members to come forward. To enter your car, you will need to email the following information to [email protected] by Friday May 31. Or simply respond to this post and add pictures.

Model year
Colour combination
Style (coupe/targa)
Interior and exterior conditions (showroom/very good/good/fair)
A list of major modifications
4 good quality pictures of your car



Once we have gathered all entries, the list will be forwarded to Honda Canada for final selection. You will be notified by NSXCC if you are selected. Note we are NOT required to leave our cars overnight, nor do we require to park at an exhibit hall for public viewing.

If you are interested, please email your entry to [email protected] by 11:59pm FRIDAY MAY 31.

Thank you and we look forward to your entry.

So who is going to show Tony K how to drive around the Toronto Indy circuit....in a real Car:wink:

Such a cool opportunity. I hope someone mounts a go pro camera on their car to record it for those of us who can't be there this year.

Cheers,
Ian

After seeing the race yesterday, it isn't Tony who needs the driving lesson, but Dario. The crowd was not happy the race finished, to say the least.

I did not see the race, just heard who won....So we`ll still need to show these guys how to drive around the CNE track

So far we have 11 entries for 6 spots. There are at least 3 more who have not entered. We are going to need more spots. How about that Bram? Would Honda be opened to giving us a bigger spot light?

It's worth a try...stay tune

Bram

This would just be awesome to participate in... pick me, pick me!

Send in your info on the NSX to the NSXCC email with pictures, and you will be added to the pool for consideration.

Thanks Tommy. Our cutoff was Friday May 31. Sorry we can't make exception. We have 22 cars in total so this process will take some time.

22... My chances of getting in are getting slimmer and slimmer :/

Come on. Have some faith in your ride. For sure there are plenty of interest which is to be expected. 3 year ago we had 20+ cars at the exhibition place for the Honda Indy display and that was with half the membership base today. I was surprised not more than 30+ cars want in. With 6 cars it is what it is, and it will be a special moment for us few to represent the club and our generation of Nsx owners proudly.

I can only hope too!!!!
It would be a chance of a life time.

Sorry Rick, entries date is passed....my Bad

Due to overwhelming response, Honda has agreed to increase the number of parade lap cars to 10, being 5 on Saturday and 5 on Sunday. In addition, we were successful in negotiating a passenger per each parade lap participants. This is a game changer for many of us. In any events, all applications have been submitted to Honda for review and we expect their selections within the next two weeks. Good luck to all.

For the purpose of transparency, here are all qualified entries (2 pictures per car shown here) submitted to Honda, presented here in random order:

Wow!! You guys have awesome pics!

Thanks to everyone who participated in the Toronto Indy Parade Lap drive selection process. It was certainly not an easy task for the Indy organizers. With a final count of 22 cars, it took a good 2.5 weeks to arrive at their selections. From Honda Canada, they are sending their appreciation for our support as this opportunity not only benefit members, but also a great promotion for the pending release of the new NSX.

Along with their selections, they have scheduled their preferred cars for Saturday and Sunday. Each of you will have the option to 1) drive in (the morning) on the day of the lap, or 2) bring your car in the night before, prep and have it ready for the next day. Either would work and Honda is leaving the option to us. They do stress this will be a "rain or shine" event, so to those who refuse to drive theirs in the rain, please keep this in mind. In the event of hail/thunder storm, we would inform the organizers and make necessary adjustments.

Another note, drivers are allowed to bring a passenger so please DO NOT leave the seat empty (email ME if you need a passenger). Also, each car will be provided with two VIP passes for the day, as details haven't been finalized you could be getting VIP passes for the full weekend. This is still to be determined.

Here are the 10 cars selected to represent NSX Club of Canada:

Saturday July 13
Chris L (Black 02 converted 91)
Paul K (White 92)
Jim E (Black SC 94)
Danny M (Yellow 00)
Robert C (Zanardi 99)

Sunday July 14
Sean F (Red 91)
Bash P (Custom Gray 91)
Robert M (Black SC 93)
Rick S (Red 96)
Chris W (Imola 02)

Congratulations to all winners. Further details to follow.
