Blink and you’ll miss the Acura NSX GT3 cameo in F1: The Movie. But thanks to a behind-the-scenes feature from Porsche, we get a closer look at the red NSX GT3 that was at the 2024 Rolex 24 At Daytona.
While an Acura NSX GT3 Evo22 did actually race in the GTD class of the 2024 Rolex 24 at Daytona, it was the No. 66 Gradient Racing entry that competed, not the red No. 93 Racers Edge Motorsports NSX featured in the film.
“We had the opportunity to participate in the production of the @f1movie during the 2 weeks of shooting at the 2024 Rolex 24. While we didn’t campaign the Acura NSX GT3 in the actual IMSA race, we ran her before and after the event for rehearsal and filming as one of the background cars in the movie.
We weren’t sure at the time if the livery or our scenes would make the final cut of the movie, so we were thrilled see our favorite red race car in the homage to sportscar racing at its finest.”

If you havent seen F1: The Movie yet and you’re an Acura fan, you’ll be disappointed to know the red Racers Edge Acura NSX GT3 with “Chiaki’s Journey” livery only gets a few milliseconds of screen time. You shouldn’t miss the other Honda Powered cameos though – The Red Bulls, Alpha Tauris and McLaren MP4 all make an appearance.
