JGTC. (Qualifying)

I was at Sepang a few months back during the Japan Super GT Championship. Sorry for the delay as the amount of photo was enourmous! This is just the qualifying part. There's still the actual race the next day. It's usually the best time to go to a race during the qualifying sessions as there's not much of a crowd there and your chances of taking pictures with your favourite GT girl is higher. It is almost the same as the actual race itself. Engines roared as drivers downshifts before going into a corner. Drivers stomp on the gas pedal as the straight approaches. Cars zig zag their way down the straight and held on tight to their racing line as they defend their position. The pit crew was in top form too as they make split second tyre change and refuelling before flagging off their car again.

This was all for grid position on the next day. Of course it would be an advantage to start the race in front of other drivers, eventhough it is by just a few metres. A few metres, a few kilo's, a few seconds could mean a lot on the track.
















MALAYSIA BOLEH!!!!


See the little pool on the right hand side? It's for drivers to chill in after their hot lap around Sepang. Seriously!








Reminds me of the times in camp where we hang our clothes to dry in the open.




The prancing horse.

How I wish this was on our roads.
