it seems the brits have been sent invites rcm , zen, N.D's, but apparently it could be from 3-4 weeks for your car to get there meaning missed rounds in this country, if it were me id be out there, but it would obviously cost a lot to get the car and a team to oz, but i think it would be worth it if at the end you can say that you own the best time attack car on the PLANET

Got my invite! But it's at best 3 months out of action if you want to go from the UK. it's ideal for some cars that only get wheeled out once or twice a year (or hardly ever like the HKS CT-230R)

seems to be the problem, the amount of time the car is out of commission it would be epic though. just a real shame there will be no british representation. they said 3-4 weeks either way so it would defo be 1 round missed here

In Japan we were 3-4 seconds off in the blue car running moderate power, and on tyres that the locals reliable told us would be 2 seconds a lap slower than what they were running.

With some testing and the later car i would say that we could be there or there abouts on the same tyres as them.

dont get me wrong, i would love to see some UK teams out there.

But i just think cars like the Cyber Evo and Cusco/Tomei Tarzan STI have been doing it longer, and better... than anyone in the world!

The green zen car would certainly give them a good go if it were there. If that car was in Japan for the event a couple of years ago it would have caused a stir for sure.

Long time to be without your car to send it and huge expense for the car and team - can only think of one team in the uk that has the potential budget and a spare car ..

It would be cool if the UK did something similar, inviting others to come here.
