*This cause of victory is in the machine characteristic of HSV that doesn't put the stress on tires. We were able to deliver the full performance of tires.
*In this race, it was proven that HSV-010 GT stood the high temperature.
Firstly, cooling the engine functioned well. We had improved the air flow of the cooling duct of the side radiator before the race. Cooling air came to flow to radiator evenly. As a result, we were able to race by shutting the half of the side air outlet (of the front fender). In a word, HSV has enough ability to cool. We can use this capacity for further performance improvement.
Secondarily, a new cool suit system functioned well.
We proved HSV to be competitive in the summer race, too.
