SUPER GT 2012 Round 3

June 9th and 10th marks the 3rd round in Sepang, Malaysia of the Super GT after Okayama and Fuji in Japan.

4th April 2012, JPM Motorsports, the organizer of the Malaysia round held a press conference at Pavilion Shopping Center to announce the event as well as the activities planned during the race.

SUPER GT is one of the best spectator sports in the world. The passion surrounding this motorsport is palpable to all, and SUPER GT is proud to say that it has always been committed to remaining fan-friendly. Fans can meet the teams up close in person, and to keep the racing competitive for the fans, SUPER GT imposes ballast penalties to winners. Not only that, SUPER GT is a big believer in the green movement. This year will see the Toyota Prius GT300 battling it out with the rest of the GT300 contenders, and from Round 4 onwards, the Honda CRZ GT300 will also be joining the fray.

For those who not familiar, SUPER GT actually known as ALL-Japan Grand Touring Car Championship (JGTC), it was founded in 1993 and promoted by the GT-Association. There are two classes of race, the GT500 and GT300. Each class is limited by the amount of power the machines put out, 500hp and 300hp respectively. In order to ensure maximum excitement, two classes are run at the same time although points are awarded separately for each group.

Toyota, Honda and Nissan cars of GT500 will be more powerful this year due to the changes of SUPER GT regulation. Meanwhile, Mercedes Benz, Audi, Porche, Lamborghini and Corvette will compete in GT300 class as well as recently released SUBARU BRZ.

Besides SUPER GT race, Super GT fans can look forward to a host of innovative off track activates such as motorshow event with participants from Honda, Porsche, Ford, Alfa Romeo, Toyota, Nissan, Hyundai, Naza World and other manufacturers. Akiba Town, which is a lifestyle themed bazaar for Japanese gadgets for shopaholic. BMX challenge and also the Gran Turismo 5 Asia Online Tournament 2012 Challenge, the winner of which will compete with international players for the title of Asia’s GT5 Champion.

Last year, a Malaysian Book of Records number of 405 cars turned up for the Biggest Supercar and Performance Car Gathering . This year, JPM Motorsport aims to break that record.

Hope to see you in Sepang International Circuit this coming 9th and 10th June 2012!

Achilles Radial Formula Drift Asia 2011

Japanese drifter, Daigo Saito, won round 3 for the second year running in Malaysia and official Formula Drift Asia 2011 champion. His team SPARK Achilles team became the overall winner in the team championship.

Many drift fans were hoping for Diago Saito and Manabu Orido to come out and compete with each other and their wish is granted.Unfortunately, Orido made a rare error on the first run causing him to spin out, and Saito’s close tandem attack on Orido on second run means Saito wins the final race with ease.
