Takeshi Tsuchiya revealed that Team Tsuchiya (#25) have not yet secured the enough budget to participate in all round this season!
But he is very positive in spite of this situation. https://twitter.com/TsuchiyaTakeshi/...18644537847809 Last edited by Japanese Samurai; 17 Apr 2019 at 15:05. |

Well that shows how hard it is to raise the sufficient budget. I hope he can get out in time for the next race for his sake

Team apr (#30) says that the reason why they don't equip the hybrid system is because they are equipped with big torque, large displacement engine, so they judged that they can do good race even without motor assistance.

Autosport magazine No.1505 SGT report
http://www.as-books.jp/books/preview.php?no=7004 *About GT500 engine war. As for NRE engine, the compressor size is fixed. Therefore, total air flow rate is limited. By engine development war, the amount of air is already close to the limit even by normal engine use. As a result, Qualifying "party mode" will not work on circuits with high altitudes and high temperatures. In other words, the party mode will not be effective except for the Motegi round. *About GT300 tire war Team Tsuchiya (#25) will introduce new spec Yokohama tire in upcoming Fuji round. This tire was very effective in Fuji official test and it will work also in other circuits. GT300 tire war is continued. |

Autosport web reports the secrets of 2004 Nissan Z33 GT500.
http://www.as-web.jp/supergt/475458?all *Rear section -Z33 had used a fuel container existing between the cabin and the transaxle unit as a carbon composite structural member. *Front section -Z33 had used the engine as a structural member. -Although the regulations requires that the vehicle stand on its own even if the engine is removed, the rigidity and weight reduction are realized while clearing the regulations with a structure that integrates the engine and the sub-frame. |

How about just "Supra Corner"? It'd be better than GR added. I prefer Lexus corner over the two imo.

SuperGT sold the rights to the rest of the world (outside Japan) to a Thai company. The Thais needed to make some of that money back, and the people willing to pay the most money were Motorsport Network. |
