yeah they will be quick, when we were talking to the panther guys last week to get practice tyres they told us yokomo have 5000 pairs of tyres and they have been there for a few weeks along with the HB crew.

IFMAR rules say the track has to change by 60%. The track over there has a few different layouts that can be used but the locals and Japanese drivers would have driven every corner thousands of times.

It will be like a superbike round at suzuka... still I am looking forward to driving on it and cant wait to fly out tomorrow!
