At the upcoming 25 Hours of Thunderhill race, Team Honda Research – West will enter a couple of Acura ILX race cars. The team will be working alongside Honda Performance Development and Solo Motorsports. THR-W, which is composed of Honda associates, is the official employee road-racing team of Honda R&D in Los Angeles. Their racing activities take place after-hours. The 25 Hours of Thunderhill endurance race was selected to demonstrate their teamwork, strategy, and durability. Since the new ILX is produced in Indiana, THR-W closely works with the factory and local development experts on the race campaign. A pair of brand new ILXs was delivered to the team, made to specifications for THR-W and Honda Performance Development. Solo Motorsports has made its contribution of bespoke CAD-designed roll cages in both chassis which are now in HRA Los Angeles. [source: AutoGuide]
