Video: 1984 Fuji International Speeday 250km

No votes yet

I found this very good amateur video of the 1984 Fuji Gran Championship where a bunch of Sunny B110s, Sunny B310s, Starlet KP61s and first generations Honda Civics battled the TSA class 250km race. The competition is fierce and you can enjoy an 8 minutes spectacle of bumps, spins and drifts:

BTW: at 3:37 an unidentified car is going through the corner on 3 wheels. Anyone got an idea what car it is?


Count the hachis (hachi roku day at Fuji Speedway)

Your rating: None Average: 5 (1 vote)

This video shows what the average hachi roku enthusiast will drool over: 4:25 minutes non-stop hachi action on hachi-roku-day at Fuji Speedway!

Anyone actually able to count them all? I lost track at a certain moment and my guess is somewhere near 30!


Family Album Treasures: Fuji Speedway comic version

When I found the picture of Fuji International Speedway I posted last week I got an Initial D feeling from the whole scene. So I could not resist modifying it with some comic sound effects from Initial D:
Comic version: Fuji Speedway International visit

Even better to keep this version in your family album, right?

What's more 90s than visiting the Fuji International Speedway circuit with your friends? Especially if most of them own a sportscar?

Yes, that's a whole bunch of AE86s, a Celica XX, a 280ZX and...and... a Sprinter AE82? And is that a female driver next to the panda white Levin AE86?
Definitely a picture worth keeping in your family album! :)

Female reporter in a Nissan R810V at 1986 JSPC

No votes yet

We all saw the video of Itsuki's voice actor screaming his lungs out when Keiichi Tsuchya takes him on a drift ride. Well, how about this female reporter riding along with Haruto Yanagida in the Nissan R810V shortly before the 1986 JSPC?

She literally screams her lungs out after the first two corners and bursts into tears when the lap is over... Poor girl...

I must say I probably would not like to trade places with her. The Nissan R810V was based upon the Lola T810 chassis and was powered by a high performance tuned Nissan VG30ET V6 engine. There were no official power outputs of this car, but its IMSA brother had an power output of 641hp and only a weight of 860kg! Imagine driving launched from 90km/h to 300km/h in a few seconds on a wet Fuji Speedway straight: I would probably scream as well. :o
