Formula 1 - Jordan Honda

Hi everyone, this is already old news, just haven't been here lately, what do you guys think about Honda pulling it's engines from Jordan Honda team, and the Jordan team getting a 3 year contract with Ford... [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG] Jordan Ford, sounds awful...

what's the deal with Honda pulling all it's engines from racing, you know, CART and stuff, saying they can't make the engine requirement for the 2003 season or something, so they're pulling all their engines from there too...

Maybe the guys working on those engines will switch to making fast engines for street Hondas??? I wish.

I think they're moving to IRL because of all the problems with CART recently.

They already do. All of Honda's new engineers are first put to work at HPD (Honda Performance Development). They're put through high pressure scenarios and that's where they hone their skills so that they can build better econoboxes (sounds kind of backwards, but that's how they do it).
