I agree with you - though I don't mind some standardisation under the bonnet, as we're seeing with the engines right now.

According to AUTOSPORT, This DBR9's owner is Hitotsuyama Racing.

Ah Hitotsuyama Racing, they have quite a history with the McLaren F1 GTR and the Prodrive 550 in JGTC/Super GT and the short lived JLMC. Japanese Samurai do you know where either of those cars are now? Are they still with the team?

Thanks for the pics mirkob, such a beautiful car is the DBR9. I wonder why they only do 3 races?? Maybe they are using Super GT as a warmup for the Asian Le Mans Series.

The tires do look a bit smaller in the DBR9 wheel arches or is it just me?....

Shiden's new 3D end-plate of rear wing. (at Okayama test)

08 rear wing is here(The mount style changed, too).
http://supergt.net/supergt/2008/08ga...ry.htm?0807074

Sorry, off topic.
Shiden's designer Takuya Yura produced unique racecar.
The name is "Ko-Shiden(Shiden-Jr.) type R"
This name was named because it had been made by using the same type as the cabin of Shiden.
This car has 660cc Kei-car engine on midship.

It is a feature that the upper part is canard shape.

Another win for the GTR with Seiji Ara onboard, the Aston finishes eight laps down, I would like to see how its lap times compared in the race, in qualifying it was six seconds off pole.

Aston was very slow to be passed by the GT300 car.
This is because the advantage with large restrictor was not able to be used because of rain condition.

The 2009 special performance adjustment of the GT300 class turned out.
(This performance adjutment is not made public! )
Standard vehicle: Nissan 350Z 1100kg
Shiden +75kg
Collora Axio +50kg
Garaiya +25kg
Lexus IS +10kg

Because various cars are participating in the GT300 class, the performance adjustment is necessary.
However, the problem is not open to the public of the performance adjustment.
