No.3 CRAFTSPORTS MOTUL GT-R
Kohei Hirate
I am really happy to have helped give the GT-R its first win of the season in front of everyone. Before the start, we had to decide whether to go with slick or wet tires, and since I know a lot about SUGO, I was able to suggest that we go with the wet tires, and that is what the team decided to do. Including this decision with the tires to use, Michelin and the team really did a great job for us. I want to say thanks to NISMO, to Michelin and to all the fans who supported us.

Arigatou gozaimasu (Thank you). Until now, as a team we had been competitive, and this time with that teamwork we were able to reap the fruit of all our efforts and there was no bad luck or trouble to keep us from winning. I am very happy with this.
No.55 ARTA NSX GT3
Shinichi Takagi
I never thought we would win at SUGO. With this, I have gotten one lap closer to [Morio] Nitta-san (No. 96) in the race for most wins. In the championship race, Nitta has moved up to 2nd place in the standings, so I really want us to go all out for the win in the final round of the season.
Nirei Fukuzumi
I am really glad that we were able to win this race here. I think we owe this victory to Manager [Aguri] Suzuki and the team, and I am very happy.
