Default OT: A Piece of Honda History

Came across this and thought the Honda enthusiasts here would enjoy. This is a photo of the Honda RA272 from 1965. This car won only one race that year -the Mexican Grand Prix and was driven by Richie Ginther (his only victory). The Championship White color is a tribute to this car and it's victory in Mexico.




And some marketing shots from Honda:

Sorry that the text is so small, I couldn't read it either (somewhere from an Official Honda site, I think).
