I was able to get a group of friends to head to Aomori SpeedPark, in Aomori, Japan this past weekend. I had a blast.　My Japanese language skills are extremely limited so it was nice to be able to discuss laps, lines, etc... It wasn't too busy, the following day was an Autobacs Cup event. The following are pictures of some of the cars that attended and my USDM Rio. (oh, and yes that is a hood popped to the secondary - aerocatch pins coming soon )

I'm jealous.... I wonder how those civic hatchbacks did.

 

The Civic type R hatches are some of the quickest cars at the track. It seems like with the way their drivers operate into and out of the pits with temps and settings leads me to believe they are the most experienced too.
