I think I need to recheck Suzuka 10h entrants from Super GT so far:
- Goodsmile Racing Hatsune Miku (Mercedes AMG GT3).
- D'station Racing (Porsche 911 GT3)
- Drago Corse (Honda NSX GT3)
- Cars Tokai Dream 28 (Lotus Evora MC)
- Gainer (Nissan GT-R GT3)

Any other teams that I missed?

According to Daisuke Ito blog,
there was a SGT sporting regulations explanatory meeting today.
It seems that the formation at the time of rolling start is strictly regulated this season.

I decided to get the digital version of AS vol. 1474 and pieced together what the rest of the GT300 might look like.

https://supergtworld.wordpress.com/2...of-the-puzzle/

LEON: Kurosawa/Gamou
JLOC 88: Orido/Hiramine
JLOC 87: Hosokawa/Motojima
Upgarage: Yuhki Nakayama/Takashi Kobayashi
Hitotsuyama (announcement next week): Lyons/Tomita
Mach: N. Sakaguchi/Fujinami
Tomei: Shibata/A. Tanaka/Aoki
Rn-Sports: Ryosei/Ueda
Taisan: AS has Parsons/Klien listed, but I wouldn't be surprised if Yamada/Kawabata were also in the frame
R'Qs: Wada-Q/Guts
Dijon: Dr. Takamori/any combination of M. Tanaka, T. Iida, or Masami Kageyama

Autosport web reports the weak point of BRZ GT300.

The problem of BRZ is the loss of the point in the cold temperture race.
BRZ was transaxled and weight distribution was optimized.
This enabled fuel only pitstop strategy.
On the other hand, the warm-up performance of tire in cold temperture is a problem.
Since JAF-GT300 is inferior to FIA-GT3 in performance of traction control,
they can not soften the compound of the tire.
Therefore, they want to improve the good use of tire during the cold off season

Lexus 1st in all four test sessions at Okayama the last two days - and even still, everyone in the paddock is in awe over Juju Noda's first laps in an F3 car. Motorsport is really neat.
