With added required safety equipment for competition, the NSX negotiated the 12.42-mile course in a time of 10:28.820 to win the Time Attack 2 class of the Broadmoor Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. <span class=\"xn-person\">Nick Robinson<\/span>, North American R&amp;D team member and engineer in charge of the next-generation supercar&#8217;s dynamic performance, drove the production-based Acura NSX to victory. Nick is also the reigning PP250 winner from the 2015 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m incredibly happy to have won the Production Class with the new NSX!&#8221; Robinson reported. &#8220;The hard work the entire development team has put into the NSX over the past few years really paid off.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Two additional Acura vehicles &#8211; the NSX-inspired 4-Motor Acura EV Concept, driven by <span class=\"xn-person\">Tetsuya Yamano<\/span>, and a modified 2017 Acura NSX, driven by Nick&#8217;s brother, <span class=\"xn-person\">James Robinson<\/span> \u2013 also campaigned in the race. Yamano finished second in the Electric Modified class in the NSX-inspired EV, posting a time of 9:06.015 (79.119 mph), which made him the third fastest on the overall charts. The Acura EV Concept&#8217;s all-electric SH-AWD\u00ae powertrain boasts peak output three times the total system output of the CR-Z prototype that ran last year, featuring a world&#8217;s first technology that enables four-wheel independent torque allocation. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For our new NSX to win one of the most historic and challenging races on the planet in its North American racing debut is a great achievement for everyone involved in creating the American-built supercar,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Jon Ikeda<\/span>, vice president and general manager of the Acura Division. &#8220;The performance of NSX in this year&#8217;s race is a testament to Acura&#8217;s Precision Crafted Performance DNA and will serve as a launching pad for future racing endeavors.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>For More Information<br \/><\/b>Consumer information is available at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.acura.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">www.acura.com<\/a>.
