This year 2001, the Japan GT was held in June from 22-24. The whole event actually is more about cars and GT Queens as well as most guys actually love those cars as men are like such car enthusiasts like the Toyota Supra, Honda NSX, Nissan Skyline and many more. This year it was a special round as no points were counted for the teams as they made a appearance for advertising the event as this is the second time the event was held at the SIC (Sepang F1 International Circuit). This year my friend (Kim Yew, Kim Fai, Paul, Hon San, Wern Shen and John) and I went together as we all bought our tickets at Speedzone near Kepong on the very same day for we all wanted to get Premier Grandstand tickets which cost RM150 before they were all sold out. On the first day, we actually went early to check out the place and get parking stickers even when it was only the Free Practice event. On that day we even when went exploring around the whole complex where we actually came across an entrance to the Pits so we decided to go down there as we wanted to see the cars up-close and also try to get a sneak-peek at the GT Queens if possible. Anyway, what we did not know was that normal tickets could not go in as we needed special passes to go in but by our luck there was no guard that day. So we actually got through without anyone noticing so we took as many photos of the cars as we could that day. The second day was normal as we just went to watch to watch the qualifying for which team will be at pole position in Sunday's race; the only special thing that caught my attention on Saturday was that they actually sold passes to the Pits on Sunday which cost RM100 which did not turn me, John and Paul down to actually meet the GT Queens up-close also the drivers and the cars too for only RM100 compared with F1 passes which cost maybe around RM1000++. On Sunday, I woke up very early to get ready and also to check my gear if my camera has batteries and also enough film for my trip. When I actually got down there I did not waste anytime as I took my camera out and started snapping photos non-stop till I actually took around 5 films full of myself with the Gt Queens and the cars as well. The race then started so no one was allowed down there where we went to meet our friends at the grandstand to enjoy the race. But before that I forgot to say that I actually got to talk to one of the most pretty and friendliest GT Queen I ever met down there who is Aki Ogawa who gave me her info card, signature, and sticker too. She is also very photogenic and has a very beautiful smile too but one thing which is very common amongst I can say all the GT Queens is that they are all quite short.  Anyway all the money spent, time and effort spent was all to worth it as well. Included below are the pictures that I took and some from other websites where you can get their URL from my links page as well as the tickets too.
