So here’s the thing: I know Fuji gets a bad rap or isn’t thought of as highly as, say, Suzuka, but I’ve gone twice before (Super GT Golden Week race two years in a row) and it’s very, very good as a fan. The facilities are nice, and it’s fairly compact and walkable. With a general admission ticket, you can walk around to see almost every corner easily (the only ones that are tough are in the last sector). And you can get some good photo spots from hills to see cars in really high-speed corners - Turn 3 is especially fun to watch from.

Tickets are running 8800 JPY and that gives you a full three days of access, and you can go into the grandstands on Friday or Saturday. I’m just doing a day drive and back on Sunday, but it’s definitely something to think about for future years.

I know posting this means I’m going to have a typhoon come through, but fingers crossed.

The track does produce good racing with a bad layout.


Most criticism is actually due to the love for the old layout.

Didn’t one of the ByKolles cars one year go to a test, do four laps (then the wing failed) and proceed to vanish?
