If you watch the video you see the flashers intermittently go off. I inquired about it and someone responded, "The car´s sensors detect a risky situation and activate the flashers to warn the other drivers. For example, hard braking."

Wonder if this is the case with the USDM cars?

I was waiting for this video since I saw this reels the other day:



This guy is insane. He should have used individual mode with the pedal dance. Lapping the nürburgring in R+ suspension is crazy haha

No, it's an annoying European legal requirement. Hope someone will find a way to disable it.

That looked like a very fast lap. Of course, for any record setting you want to have the track to yourself. Just watching this and remembering videos of the FK8 record, this looks as if the FL5 is carrying more speed. So with a clear track, etc. Honda should be able to shave a fair amount off the old record. Loved watching that.
