Why this kit matters
The Honda RA273 marked an important stage in Honda’s Formula One history during the mid 1960s. It featured a powerful V12 engine developed entirely in house, showing Honda’s engineering ambition on the world motorsport stage.
Raced during the 1966 season, the RA273 laid the groundwork for Honda’s later success in Grand Prix racing. Its distinctive design and mechanical layout make it a key subject for anyone interested in the early technical development of Formula One.
