Holy shit Okayama Circuit. That is Aya's prefecture in fact Okayama circuit is like really close to her home City ,Kurashiki.

I would say that it will probably be a tight competition between the HSV and the GTR I would epect them to swap leads and wins from race to race.

What the fuck is a HSV? How the hell is it legal for honda to compete in super GT with a made-up car??? Hey, nissan should make up some shit to beat honda's made up shit.

[Chrischeezer]

^I THINK! its their concept NSX... they have been developing it for quite some time, but their progress was slow, but yes.. seems like a made up car. lol
first 2 races were pretty great imo, this season seems hopeful.

found answers in wiki"- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_HSV-010_GT
"On October 23, 2009, Honda officially announced the end of the mid-engine NSX Super GT's participation in Super GT racing due to new Super GT regulations that allowed the use of only front engine,rear drive cars. On November 15, 2009, Honda announced that, despite withdrawing the NSX from Super GT competition, it would campaign a car for the 2010 season. Honda revealed that the car it would be based on the cancelled 'New NSX' production vehicle. Honda's decision to campaign a non-production vehicle required it to obtain special permission from Super GT organizer to be exempt from the production homologation requirements for the series. They were allowed to use it on the basis that it was based on a prodction-ready car, even though said car had been cancelled.[2]

Then, on December 22, 2009, Honda announced the HSV-010 GT as the successor to the NSX Super GT in the Super GT series. Unlike typical Super GT cars, the vehicle is not based on any production vehicle that is made available to purchase by the general public."

Ya its pretty interesting. Super GT is a trip. The rules for what they allow beg to question.

ahhh the rich guy made up car racing league... v8 supras.. front engine rwd nsx's... sounds like some need for speed bs... about as relavent as a daytona prototype is to a pontiac.

[kingkilburn]

I think those rules are just to get more cars in there. It also gets the Japanese cars closer to competing on the international stage.
