Driving
High-performance driving requires special skills, knowledge and experience, as the
safety risks are greatly increased when the NSX is operated at its upper performance
abilities. As a responsible NSX driver, you should not drive above your skill limits or
training, even if the NSX’s performance leve ls would otherwise allow you to do so.
If you intend to engage in high-performa nce driving, Acura strongly recommends
that: • You first obtain appropriate, professional training
• Turn off any devices or systems that may distract you from the driving task
High-performance driving in general, and the use of TRACK mode and Launch
Control in particular, puts very high loads on the NSX and its components, and
results in greater wear and tear on the vehicl e. Because of these high loads, if your
NSX is not in top condition or if certain com ponents, such as the brakes or tires, have
undue wear, those components could experience a loss of performance, or fail,
when engaging in high-performance drivin g. Therefore, Acura highly recommends
that you undertake more proactive and frequent maintenance than that required
under normal use and have your vehicle inspected at an authorized Acura NSX
dealer (and all necessary repairs or adju stments made) before you engage in any
high-performance driving. In addition to any required maintenance, there are
certain NSX specific items and protocols th at you should pay special attention to
before, during and after engaging in any high-performance driving. Ultimately, the
decision whether to engage in high-perfo rmance driving is yours, and depending on
your NSX’s condition and prior usage, the items and protocols listed below may or
may not be sufficient to ensure a safe driving experience.
BEFORE DRIVING •With the vehicle parked on level gro und, properly bleed brake system after
replacing with Acura Heavy Duty Brake Fluid DOT 4 or equivalent
• Inspect brake pad thickness an d replace if 6.0 mm or less
