Video of Senna driving NSX-R

I like this video more and more every time I see it. :wink:

One thing of interest, as well as his "tapping" the throttle in turns, is his abrupt throttle-on when tracking out. My instructors all want me to gently "roll-on" the throttle out of a turn. Senna just floors it!

I must ask, why is he so popular/well known?
For some background:

He's so dear to us NSX'ers is because he provided chassis feedback to the Honda engineers when the NSX was in development.

I'm sure if you wanted to know anything about Senna, you could just PM Miléd aka SennaPerfected. :)

bump - cool video

This brought back memories of being in the jump-seat with a JGTC pilot taking me around Suzuka at NSX Fiesta about 5+ years ago.

My driver (Hideki Okada) raced a McLaren F1 GTR, but we were in Hirofumi's 95 NSX-R ... even with the OEM 180 kph speed limiter, it was still a fun drive..

Great times.
