The only model Hyundai makes that would likely be worth using for such a pursuit is the Genesis Coupe.

As for Aston Martin... What difference does it make? They all looks the same.

NOB Taniguchi says about improvement of the deal for SGT driver on his blog.
His goal is to make children have ambition to be a professional driver.
For that, every racing driver must be a cool present.
Every person in racing business field must cooperate to make the racing drivers shine.
The most important thing is improvement of the deal of the racing drivers.
He says that manufacturers should pay 100 million yen (at least 50 million yen) to every GT500 drivers.
By doing that, the GT500 driver becomes a longing for the children.
If the GT500 driver can not earn money, the reward of the GT300 driver will become cheaper.
He says that he earns a lot by himself, so he dare to say this for young drivers.

Thanks for reminding me. I had to dig for the stream timings; I get that Nismo want eyeballs on their website but putting it on Twitter, which is updated more than almost any other manufacturer's, is just more convenient.

According to Ryuichiro Tomita (#21),
pit stop trouble of Hitotsuyama was caused by crash damage, not by air jack trouble.

Good race. Those pit stops are a heart breaker. Too bad about that because some of the cars were in position for a good result.

According to Tsutomu Tojo (#36 engineer) blog,
the cause of gas shortage of #36 in Thailand round was not due to Sekiguchi's high pace, but due to shortage of refueling time by mistaking of refueling rig.

No wonder the new cars are setting lap records. That's a lot more downforce than the previous generation of GT500's.

Has the schedule for 500 miles of Fuji been published yet? The official Super GT does not have the schedule https://supergt.net/races/index/2018/Round5

And as I don't speak Japanese it's bit complicated to find one. Would be nice to know how early should I leave from Tokyo...

Latest Autosport magazine is reporting the exclusive shot of secret RC F GT3 captured at Fuji in May.
It seems that the car is equipped with 19 inch wheel and pitot tube.

Any speculation as to what it could be? I don't think it would be a new GT3 since it's testing on 19" wheels which wouldn't make sense. Maybe a one-make series?

No answer.
Autosport is speculating that development car for cost reduction.

The road surface of Fuji Speedway got damaged due to high temperature.
