    Shouldn't they be concentrating their efforts on winning a Formula One race instead?

    If I were the Honda F1 team, I'd alomost be embarrased to print that, but the aerodynamics of F1 cars are [censored] for high speed. Their CD is way above normal street cars so perhaps 250 mph is a lot considering the drag they create.

    If they keep playing around with this type of thing, poor Jenson will never get his first victory!
    They should really concentrate on their race efforts and not land speed records during the F1 season. It's not like they're doing so well this year that they have all this time to kill in Bonneville.
    Maybe this is part of the reason they're not winning races.

    Perhaps they should move F1 to Bonneville - at least there'd be more room for overtaking.
