    On December 7th, two drivers of Takuya Izawa and Naoki Yamamoto as well as Team manager Kunimitsu Takahashi from TEAM KUNIMITSU, which fielded No.100 RAYBRIG HSV-010 in GT500 class, appeared in autograph session hosted at the RAYBRIG(Stanley Electric) booth in Tokyo Motor Show underway at Tokyo Big Site in Tokyo. A total of 200 fans showed up in two sessions for autographs as well as handshakes and photos with the three. Crowd got so huge at the venue that people at surrounding booths were just stunned.
    RAYBRIG HSV-010, which won the second race of this year's JAF Grand Prix, is put on display at the RAYBRIG booth providing the fans to have a close look at the car.
