Theyre faster than the hypercar class, taking Fuji as a reference they're nearly as fast as lmp1-hybrid.

And they do NOT need a shark fin to do it! Dang I wish these types of cars had a larger presence on the planet. They should be allowed in as a hypercar.

I think it would be nice if FIA/ACO invited them as a Garage 56 entry, but JAF/GTA need to sort their next GT500 regulations.

I have the impression the Japanese manufacturers have zero interest to race outside Japan.

Super Taikyu will be streamed on Twitch this season, with English commentary.

Great news, now there's no excuse to go straight from the end of Sebring to the start of the opening round at Suzuka

That was some accident. Glad everyone is ok. Haven't seen a car destroyed like that in a long long time.

Nowhere near. Tetsuya Ota's was horrific.

Looks like Gainer want to build a JAF300 Nissan. I wonder if that's a MC86 machine. Otherwise I have no idea who can build a propper JAF GT300 car. Mooncraft?

So the season's been wrapped up. A highly dramatic season finale we've had.
Here's the full race replay. Japanese commentary.

Was pretty exciting in person too! The rain certainly kept all the teams (and us in the stands) on our toes to the finish.

Gotta say though, trying to attend a Super GT race if you're not a Japanese resident is super difficult!

And now, GTA are looking into hybrid engineering for GT500. Rules similar to LMDh, rather than that of LMH or LMP1h....
