History

Initially, Honda's racing efforts were run from within the company. In the early 1970s, the Racing Service Center (RSC) was created as a separate company to oversee racing. On September 1, 1982, RSC became HRC, and ran Honda's road racing, endurance, trials and motocross racing programs.

Research and development

The development of new Honda products involves research to generate new technologies, materials, design, and development to translate those advances into commercial products. Research is the first priority for HRC and Honda R&D MSD, because it is dedicated to the development of race-winning machines with focus on the creation of next generation technologies. New advances arising from these research efforts are quickly incorporated into factory racers. At the same time, HRC cooperates with Honda R&D to develop ways of applying the latest advances to the development of Honda's production motorcycles.
