ASIA PACIFIC RALLY CHAMPIONSHIP

This year, we took part in 2 events.,Rally Hokkaido and rally Indonesia.

overall victory in Rally Hokkaido

Rally Hokkaido, it has quite unique rally stages, narrow course and high speed. Therefore, drivers must concentrate on their driving so accurately. This event is also deemed as pre event for Rally Japan 2006.

Our team, Driver Toshi Arai won this rally which was held in last July.

Rally Indonesia held 16th and 17th, Sep in Sulawesi Island , Indonesia. Because of unstable weather condition ,it is difficult to decide what type of tyre will be chosen.

As drivers are often sufferd from Hyperthermia and heat stroke under the high temperature, they are requred high-level ability for body management.
