It was a free practise day, we could see all oversea drivers were there running to get the best set-up for next day’s qualify. Local famous Japanese drivers we can see Fukuta, Shimo, Yokoyama, Yuruki and Terauchi also practising.
It was not only the KM K8 proto-type 2 was tested by Team KM, but also the HB proto-type R8 was tested by team HB.
Aug, 31st
3 rounds of qualifications were held, many local Japanese drivers were attending from Saturday.
Openning ceremony was held on Saturday also because there maybe a big storm attacking Japan on Sunday.
After Saturday’s qualify rounds, 1/10 was TQ by Meen and 1/8 was TQ by Jilles
Sept. 1st
It was a lucky day since the big storm was attacking all over Japan but only except the Tokyo area, then which made the weather was so hot around 36 degree and around 50 degree on the ground.
After the morning last round of qualify, 1/10 was TQ by Meen and 1/8 was TQ by Yokoyama.
Then it came the final for 1/10, since the mechanic couldn’t hear properly the starting sound, Meen’s car was hitted from the beginning. Which leave the new signed Team KM Japanese driver Shimazaki leaded the 30 mins A final until the end.
Final result : Champion Shimazaki (Japan), 2nd Hang (Hong Kong) and 3rd Azri (Malaysia), as we can see there were 9 KM H-K1 in the top 10!
Semi-final 1/8 was started after lunch break and the weather was getting even more hotter, many famous drivers were suffered from engine over heat problems, such as Fukuta, Meen and Terauchi, then they couldn’t bump up to A main but have to race only in B or C main.
1/8 A final started around 4:00pm, same situation for engine over heat happened to the TQ driver Yokoyama and Jilles and they have to withdrawed the race.
Then the final result came as : Champion Shimo (Japan). 2nd Raiola (Italy), 3rd Teemu (Finland).
Award ceremony was held right after the race, unique KM tropies was awarded.
For the lucky draw, total more than 70 gifts were given out and covered all partipants, the final big prize was the H-K1 World Champion Meen Version kit.
A unique selection was performed by playing game to select the winner for the kit starting with the current 1/10 world champion Meen V againsted the others, final four were againsted each other to decide the winner.
Finally it was Yip Siu Ming from Hong Kong became the lucky guy! ! !
It was very enjoyable race for all the participants and a good last chance practise before the track was closed for the IFMAR world.
