That's about what I thought they earned for GT500 drivers where the big money is. Do you think anyone would earn 100 million yen a year with racing salary plus other endorsement?
Would anyone know what a pro driver in GT300 might earn considering theres a mix of pro and am drivers unlike in GT500 where it's all pro factory drivers |

Yes. There is a rumour that Motoyama had earned 1 billion yen.
About GT300, NOB Taniguchi has earned much more than usual GT500 drivers. He is a very popular driver in Japan. |

Big news. Honda lost Fred Mako
Dome announces that it abandons a contract with Fred Mako for SGT. Dome had an option contract for 2014. However, Mako requested Dome to cancel the contract by family's intention. Therefore, Dome waived the right to Mako. http://as-web.jp/news/info.php?c_id=2&no=53452 Last edited by Japanese Samurai; 14 Dec 2013 at 10:26. |

Then he should be a reserve driver for the team who have an Dome S103, or go to Porsche...
There's also one driver who was a test/reserve driver for the former SGT team, Art Taste Team. He's Patrick Pilet. |
