Default Honda Racing F1 'View Suspended'

Got sent this link today and thought it was rather funky.

Quote:
View Suspended is a stunning art installation created from the thousands of parts that make up a Honda Racing F1 car.

The amazing display was created especially for the event by Dutch artist Paul Veroude. Each of the 3200 parts of the Formula 1 car are suspended on fine wires to produce a 3D 'exploded diagram' that allows race fans the chance to get closer than ever to the engineering secrets of the world's most technically-advanced sport.
More info along with some nice pics can be found here.

Very cool

If only the 'sport' itself were that interesting!

Shame they no longer make a CRX model and the Civic Type R looks like a bread van but the new Type R looks like they'll be back on form again.
