Is Nakajima also a drifter? Name seems to ring a bell.

With them going the DTM style route I can see them using the lf-cc as its close to the M3 and the German 2 door saloons, but the lf-lc seems the more sports car type. It will be interesting to see.

Thanks for sharing that, thats really interesting, what do you think are the chances of that being on the racecar during the season? Reminds me of what Ferrari did with their wheels in F1.

Glad that Lexus green-lighted it. Now we can see the concept car in action as a GT500 racer!

Any developments with the DTM or Grand-Am tie up from the Super GT perspective. I know that there is a chance we could see one or two US manufacturers building cars to the regulations, and the current DTM manufactures seem interested in the US, but is there any chances we could see any of the Super GT manufacturers racing in Europe or the US? (Or DTM/USA cars in Super GT?)
