The last day of the Tokyo Auto Salon 2025, which started on January 10, 2025 (Friday), was a day full of Gran Turismo. Here is a report from the " auto sport CUP @ TOKYO AUTO SALON 2025 by Gran Turismo 7 "!
Spinning, jumping, drifting, and all sorts of things!
I have been doing commentary for JeGT and am also active in real racing, so there was no way I could lose. I heard that you spent about two months in the mountains training for today's race. I hope you will watch me warmly as I race in my tuned Hiace.
I think I have been invited to participate in the drifting event, but I am very anxious. I feel like I'm going to make a mistake when I'm driving the Hiace! First of all, I will do my best to drive without incident.
My stomach hurts (laughs). I was practicing hard earlier and the management spotted me and told me to put on a handicap.... I'm going to delay the start of each of the following races to catch up with everyone!
Thankfully, I was invited to JeGT and was able to speak on various topics from a position that is neither play-by-play nor commentary. I will do my best again today.
I got hooked on cars after participating in the Tokyo Auto Salon 2024 event. I went to driving school and bought a car. I am happy to be able to participate in the event again this year. I will do my best to be active.
I usually drive a simulator, but I have been practicing hard, so I hope to finish with a good result.
We are the youngest team, but as a Gran Turismo team, we definitely cannot lose!
The crisply tuned Hiace had a blast!

Saiga NAKAUTO SALON GP U-15 members were divided into two teams! The other members are advising and cheering from behind.
Saiga NAKEven though it was an exhibition, the players were very serious.
Saiga NAKThe second and third races were run on a dirt course. Don't miss the sight of the Hiace drifting at over 200km/h!
Saiga NAKA Hiace and a coupe. It is a dream come true.
Saiga NAKTakuma Miyazono, who had the handicap of starting 1 minute behind the rest of the field. However, the name of the World Champion was no joke. The more he raced, the more he closed the gap to first place, and he turned the tables at the very end of the race.
Saiga NAKIn the fourth race, the 2,600-horsepower monster "Dodge SRT Tomahawk X VGT" blasted off down the Tokyo Expressway. The ultra-long straights will take the cars past 600 km/h, and the fast-forward-like action will have you blinking your eyes!
AUTO SALON GP U-15 Team (B) wins the championship!
After a total of four races, the AUTO SALON GP U-15 Team (B) took first place!
The 2nd place went to Noriaki Suzuki.
Third place went to AUTO SALON GP U-15 Team (A)!
