Want to watch a piece of history hug the curves of a track? Watch as Dario Franchitti takes the famous--and immaculately kept--1965 Honda RA272 out for a spin.
This 1.5-liter V-12, 230 horsepower race car is the very same one that scored Honda its first Grand Prix win at the 1965 Mexico Grand Prix, a race won by Richie Ginther.
Franchitti describes his experience with the car, from the sound of the engine, to its unique handling, saying, "To get in this, to drive such a historically significant car, and a Honda, which obviously is a brand very close to my heart, it's been a lot of fun."

I always loved this car. A major win for Honda. Ritchie Ginther was Phil Hill's longtime friend and team mate at Ferrari. He was another top level talent that came out of Southern California during that period. He represented the U.S. well as did a significant number of other drivers during this same time. For me, this era holds some special memories when it comes to events, cars, people, tracks and teams. Wish the video was longer!
