Honda has prepared a 2023 Civic Type R to pace IndyCar's season-opening race in Florida this weekend. The new pace car is the latest from the automaker, which the racing series has used since 2006.
The Civic won't venture onto the track in its stock form. The automaker added a Honda Performance Development brake package that includes competition rotors, racing pads, and stainless steel brake lines. Honda also installed four-point racing harnesses, an exclusive lighting system, and a graphics package so no one mistakes it for the regular version on the track.
