SuperGT @ Suzuka Circuit

[phryxis]

New guy here, picking up my 92 sometime this week!

Anyhow, I lived and worked in Japan in 07-08 and got to do some really cool car stuff. I thought Prime would like the photos I took when I went to watch the SuperGT race at Suzuka Circuit back in 2007.

I was really happy to be able to see the legendary SuperGT NSXes race before they got replaced by the HSV-10 (although I do love that car too).

I actually have some video footage of the race that I'll have to dig up...

Hope you enjoy the pics!

Fantastic pictures! Looking forward to the vids!! Thanks!

 

[MexiRicer]

Amazing! Videos too???!

 

[phryxis]

Thanks guys!

Yeah, I do have video, but at the time my camera broke and I never transferred it off of the tape. My friend has a camera that can transfer the video, so I just need to find the tape now

They sound absolutely glorious, especially the Amemiya RX7, what a monster!

[nsxbuilder]

Love the pics!

OK, for the record - who here WOULDN'T give one of Doc John's testicles for that Raybrig car?

 

[Brylek]

This should be a sticky in "builds" section, if you are not going to make something like this then don't start.

 

[sca037]

Prime worthy shots. Thank you!

Just imagine how many more NSXs would sell if it came in a wide body as the OEM.

It's amazing what a widebody does to the sex appeal of just about any car. even makes the MKIV looks a "hittable".

Is this the Real deal? the $500,000 NSX-R GT??????

 

[NSX167]

thanks for the pics!

 

[ysoslow]

the cars are hot... girls, however, need a total make over.

Is this the Real deal? the $500,000 NSX-R GT??????

Nope, I'm fairly sure it's a Route-KS replica.

 

[phryxis]

Is this the Real deal? the $500,000 NSX-R GT??????

I'm not sure, and the only real way is if I took a pic of the VIN, which I didn't

the cars are hot... girls, however, need a total make over.

It's funny because a lot of JDM girls don't photograph well. They are crazy cute and sweet in person, which doesn't translate so well through a photograph.
