uuBefore DrivinguHigh-Performance Driving
Driving
•Burnish the brake pads shortly before high -performance driving so that they have
the performance characteristics necessary to repeatedly and quickly slow the NSX
when it is being operated at signific antly high speeds. (While the NSX’s brake
pads are properly burnished for the demands expected in ordinary day-to-day driving, high-performance driving puts unique demands on the brake system
which require further burnishing.)
• Inspect ALL cooling openings to confirm th ey are open and free of debris such as
leaves, etc. Cooling openings include engine undercover ducts, heat resistance
ducts, brake ducts, radi ators, and intercoolers
• Remove Tire Repair Kit from the trunk, along with any other cargo area contents
• Check tire wear and tire pressure, and m ake certain wheel lug bolts are properly
torqued, as driving at high speed puts additional strain on tires and wheels. Never
use slick tires, and do not use Summer Only tires and Ultra High Performance tires
if temperatures will be lower than 45°F (7°C)
• If you anticipate sustained driving at speeds greater than 168 mph/270 km/h,
adjust the cold tire pressure as shown on the driver door jamb warning label. This
will help avoid heat build-up and sudden tire failure1High-Performance Driving
3WARNING
Use of slick tires/racing slicks may subject the chassis and body components to higher
dynamic loads than they were designed for.
Higher than intended dynamic loads could
result in component fail ure, loss of control,
and serious injury or death to you or others.
Do not install slick tires on the NSX.
