This is your once in a life time chance to experience professional D1GP drifting, show cars, trade stands & demo cars, and a wide variety of street-driven JDM tuner cars at the Rays Fan Meeting - all at once at the iconic Fuji International Speedway! On a rare occasion some of Japan's heritage race cars have appeared at this event - previously we've seen the Nismo R390, classic JGTC cars, and several current Super GT cars. Some of Japan's biggest names in tuning will also be there, last year Liberty Walk had a huge fleet on display along with other tuners such as Mine's, Top Secret, Tomei, and many more. This event only happens once a year and is a rare chance to see all these tuners, drifting, street tuned JDM sports cars, and rare racecars all in one day. If you're a JDM or motorsports fan you don't want to miss this opportunity! Check out the YouTube walkthrough videos of the tuner booths and Rays Fan Meeting for a hint of what you can expect to enjoy.
Your day will begin bright and early from Yokohama or Tokyo at around 8am (7am with Aaron) where you'll experience the journey out to Fuji Speedway and likely also spot other JDM and motorsport fans on the way there too. Once there, your consultant will take care of all entry requirements and you can marvel at all the other tuned JDM cars that owners have driven to the event! You'll have until around 3pm to enjoy the trade stands, tuner shop demo cars, and drifting runs either freely or with the guidance of your consultant.
Why book with us?
With one of our guides you'll get to participate in Japan's tuning scene with a local and fellow car enthusiast in their turbo-charged JDM car - rather than spectating from an average rental 😄. If you have an international license you can rent a car but the highway system can be very difficult to navigate and GPS often lags due to the number of tall buildings and multi-layered road network.
