Sean Walkinshaw is/was a Nismo athlete, he's not a part of GT Academy. One of the sons of Tom Walkinshaw, his brother Ryan owns a V8 Supercar team and Holden Special Vehicles amongst other things. Don't know a lot about his background but he's done open wheelers and GT thus far.

We are doing it now.
What? It's update work for 2017 model. About 15 places. It's to fix the trouble which occurred to M6GT3 of all over the world last season. Improvement of the reliability, not performance enhancement, is the purpose. If trouble doesn't occur, this car is very fast. Update work will be finished during this week. We will carry out the shakedown test at Fuji next week. Detailed schedule is secret. This season's color scheme is already decided. However, presentation day isn't decided yet. If that's decided, I'll announce it immediately. Team Upgarage announces 2017 driver. Yuhki Nakayama and Shintaro Kawabata. http://d1ms.upgarage.com/?page_id=14 |

Speaking about the race format,I think race format of Suzuka round for next year will be the sprint race or just the 300km race like other race , Speaking for Suzuka 300km , the last held for this race is 2010 season. Then Suzuka 10 hour endurance race is not from the SUPER GT championship series right?
@Japanese Samurai By the way , I found this article is related to Suzuka races . Can you please translate this article and summarize this article to us??? https://twitter.com/Kuruma461204/sta...72111871913987 |

I sure hope that the Super GT endurance round stays, even if not at Suzuka.

I hoped so : Now I think for the next season race for Suzuka race and the schedule: Lets say: Suzuka 500km Fuji 1000km Is this is the good idea ???? Because Fuji Speedway is the most famous endurance races in Japan. WEC , Super Taikyu endurance race are held in Fuji Speedway. |
