Weather has a huge effect on lap times in Japanese series, since they will race at the same track in weather ranging from about +10C to +40C.
Super Formula races at Suzuka in early spring and late fall while the Suzuka 1000 is usually the hottest Super GT race of the year. The Fuji 500 and Fuji 6 Hours are quite cool races while the Super Formula race and Fuji 300 are during the hot season. As such the qualifying times for the Fuji 300 are always a second or two slower than the Fuji 500.
