Rd.6 of 2009 Super Taikyu Series was held in Okayama International Circuit. It has been a while since the qualifying and the final race were to be held on the same day, but the people were feeling the tension building up among the drivers and the spectators for the upcoming race.

 

During the qualifying round, ST-3 class car#27 FINA ADVAN M3 (E46), a team with great momentum took 2^nd place position as if they were to overcome their previous result. After few hours of break from the qualifying round, the final race began and they take the 1st place position right off the back to gain a healthy lead against the followers. But as the race advances, the gap between the 2^nd place narrows which happens to be car#78 WW2 RX-7 (FD3S) who is equipped with TEIN TYPE-N1 damper. It was a close race all the way till the end, but he defended his lead position and finished 1^st to take the win in his class. He now rises to 3^rd place in the standing, which still leaves him a good chance of winning the championship.

 

Car#16 T-MANOIL DIXEL Okabe Jidousha Z (Z33) finishes 5^th place and he is now tied on top of the table but he managed to stay above the rest.

 

Next round will be held in October at Sendai Highland. Stay with us for more action from TEIN users.
