[edit] Introductory section
Did nothing interesting happen to Mr. Honda from 1928 until 1948?
[edit] Art Shokaii
". . . Art Daimler, then the famous machine born from the marriage of a Curtiss aircraft engine and an American Mitchell chassis" For those of us who were not around in 1922, what is an Art Daimler, and what is an American Mitchell chassis?
[edit] Education
Part of this article claims he had 'no formal education' at age 15, but elsewhere there are stories about his days in school. Which is correct? Danohuiginn 15:46, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
Racing
I have just updated this section by deleting the reference to Honda powering Jack Brabham's 1966 F1 Driver's and Constructor's Championship chassis. The previous entry stated Honda provided the power in Brabham's F1 car for the 1966 season. This is incorrect - the powerplant for 1966 (and 1967, for Denny Hulme's Driver's Championship) was a 3.0 litre Repco Brabham V8 developed in Australia. 1966 is the only year in the history of F1 that a driver won the Championship in a car of his own construction, a feat not even the legendary Soichiro Honda could match.
[edit] Quality
This article is just overall pretty crappy. It needs a lot of work. 71.170.176.218 (talk) 05:24, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
