The perfect eight-car carnage you need to see.
Toyota’s Gazoo Racing Festival is one of Fuji Speedway’s biggest drawcards. The enthusiast nirvana encourages more than spectating. The event is built to four pillars: Watch. Experience. Participate. Eat.
Perfect.

Team Toyo Tires Drift put on a millimetre perfect eight-car drift display that had the record 42,000 crowd on their feet and up against the fence. The ultimate display of high speed grip, talent and balance, the team vapourised set after set of Toyo Proxes R1R.
Check it out.
Offering rides at the Toyo Tires Drift Park throughout the day, 2015 D1GP Champion Masato Kawabata was joined by his team mates, whipping fans of all ages through a custom designed drift course.
Pulling no punches, mechanical failures were rife throughout the day with team mechanics scrambling and keeping all cars sliding faultlessly.
The fifth consecutive Gazoo racing event also offered kids and adults the chance to safari the track in a bus or modified Lexus among Super GT and Super Formula legends, or go for a ride in an endurance spec LFA.
Watching the sharpest end of international motorsport vehicles and drivers lap Fuji Speedway, the festival offered 11 special zones where festival-goers could drive, commentate and get involved.
