Road Racing at Dunlop Tire
Description: Miguel Duhamel was vexed. Sitting in the Honda race team transporter between practice rounds at the 2005 AMA tire-testing session at Daytona International Speedway, Duhamel was explaining his predicament to the supplier of his road-racing leathers. Road racers push their motorcycles to the edge of maximum traction through the turns; to help them feel their way through the corners, they Velcro hard-rubber knee pucks (sliders) to their riding suits to protect their knees. Every rider knows the edge. Its that precarious place where you race in order to be competitive. And then theres Duhamel, who in his 15-year professional motorcycle racing career, has found the edge of the edge. In 2004, the 36-year-old Duhamel responded to the perennial naysayers who questioned his age and his desire by taking eight victories on his way to winning the Formula Xtreme championship on his Honda CBR600RR. In addition, he finished second overall in the Superbike series in the CBR1000RRs inaugural season. On two separate race weekends, Duhamel won three national racestwo Superbike events and an Xtreme victory.

In 1977 Honda decided to return to Formula 1 as an engine supplier, rather than fielding a complete car as it had done in the 1960s. The program began with a Formula 2 engine which Honda supplied to Ron Tauranac's Ralt organization. The engines were to be serviced in Britain by Engine Developments, a company jointly owned by John Judd and Jack Brabham - an old friend of Honda. The engine was developed in 1980 and in 1981 Geoff Lees won the European F2 title in a Ralt-Honda. The following year was not as successful. Ralt was busy producing customer Formula 3 cars and so Honda expanded the supply to a new organization called Spirit, founded by former March men Gordon Coppuck and John Wickham. In Japan Honda engineers had already built the first turbocharged F1 prototypes and by August 1982 Spirit was sent a dummy F1 engine. The first Honda engine ran in a Spirit F2 chassis in November that year. The 1986 season would belong to Williams and Honda with Mansell and Piquet winning nine times. The team won the Constructors' title but Alain Prost was able to sneak through to win the Drivers' title in a thrilling showdown race in Adelaide. It also resulted in the announcement that Honda would supply its engines to Lotus in 1987, in order to have Ayrton Senna driving one of its cars.
