Motegi Ticket Troubles in Japan

Hi all,

I've been reading threads like these (ie how to get SuperGT tickets) for a while when planning my trip to Japan. To get SuperGT tickets, the general consensus was to get them from a convenience store in Japan.

So I'm here in Japan, and can't see to find them in 7-eleven (and so can't the clerks). When going into the motegi option, there are no tickets there.

I'm just wondering if anyone else is in the same position as the race is coming up soon.

I have also seen that you can get them at the gate of the event, but I would need parking as I'm planning to rent a car.

Any help would be appreciated!

Suzuka R5 questions

Hello,

I am planning a trip to Japan for the first time and would like to go to the race at Suzuka. We have never been before so we have a few questions:

  1. We will be travelling with a 19-month old toddler. I understand there is an amusement park section next to the track. Is this park more geared toward older children or would my 19 month old enjoy it as well?

  2. I hear the travel to and from the track during F1 races is a nightmare (long waits for trains and busses). Is this also the case with Super GT races? We'd be staying in Nagoya.

  3. Does the general admission ticket give me access to any seat except for seats in grandstand B, Q, R, and V?

  4. Does GA have any access to indoor lounges or other heated areas in case my wife and son get too cold?

  5. Any other tips? My wife is not into racing at all so this is really just a favor to me. The kiddo loves cars so he should have a good time (until he gets bored), but I'd like this to be a great experience for all of us.

Thanks in advance.

Driver assists?

I know they didn't back in the day, but do current gt500 and 300 cars have either abs or tcs? Or are they still not allowed like before?

‘LARK’ Tribute Car

Enjoyed looking through this thread so far. Some may think it’s cheesy, but here is my 2000 323i dressed up like Team Goh’s F1 GTRs. I purchased this particular car new in 2000, it has 275,000 miles on it, and has lapped Daytona Speedway, Road Atlanta, Atlanta Motorsports Park, Barber Motorsports Park, Nashville and Charlotte(Roval) Speedways, and will be going to as many more as possible. It’s not totally unrelated to the F1s, as the BMW S72 is at its core the same straight 6 mirrored as the V12 configuration with some extra pep.
