The event was staged at Sepang International Circuit last cloudy Sunday. Like last year scene, cool merchandised, car accessories, dream cars displayed to cheer up the visitor just before the race started. Not only the Jap’s brought up the mad monsters from Japan, but the lovely GT girls also tagged along to spark the event. The event is divided into two classes, GT300 and GT500, and nine races a year. Other vehicles racing in the Championship are the Toyota Seleca, Nissan Fair Lady Z, Honda NSX, Ferrari 360 Mondena, Mazda RX-7, and Lamborghini, among others Every team emphasizes speed, with aero-sleek bodies and polished running gear. This year, Toyota new model entry feature Banzai-style looks and detailing, which is Toyota/Lexus Sorear. I can say that most of the mad machine power and response, handling nearly the same, so it is depend on the drivers who can make it happen. High drama prevailed in the final round where some of the machine tears up some of the body parts to get a front a head. For category GT500, No.8 ARTA NSX (Ralph Firman) finishes first and crown as Champion Sepang Super GT. While, personally my favorite underdog team, No.7 AMEMIYA ASPARADRINK RX7 driven by Tetsuya Yamano, came up the champion for GT300 category.
