Talk of Honda joining NASCAR in the future continues to pursuits. With a new generation of cars set to hit the track soon, the time for a new manufacturer would make sense from a budget point of view.
During the IMSA finale at Road Atlanta’s Petit Le Mans, Motorsport asked Art St. Cyr – who was Honda Performance Development president until April, and is now VP and business head of Auto Operations for American Honda – for his corporate view of NASCAR racing.
“We always keep an eye on it,” said St. Cyr. “We look at it peripherally, right now. But it is something that interests us. Given the opportunity, we’d jump at the chance to do that as soon as it makes sense for us.”
So there you have it. Interest but nothing concrete.
