[Japanese version Goodwood] Side Wait Rophefie, Held in Sodegaura

Goodwood in Japan?What is that meaning?

In Japan, several organizations are holding classic car races.

The first "Goodwood Revival Meeting" held in 1998 has opened a hole in the classic car racing style.

The main part of this article, "Side Wait Rophefie," may be the most unique classic car race.

We are particular about the dresses of drivers, paddocks, and signs that decorate the circuit, as the classic cars were produced as new cars.

These trends of classic car racing are from goodwood in the UK.

There are regulations because they are racing, but few have appealed for unification of designs.

It was common sense to decorate with colors and stickers that did not suit the active era of the race car, and the tires were to wear semi -racing tires that are getting higher performance year by year.

Sideweight trophy origin in 2004.He actually visited Goodwood and started with volunteers who witnessed the revival meeting.

The meaning of "sideway" is "horizontal slipping"

A side -overlophy aims to make races without lap time, accepting only the participation of vehicles that emphasize the original atmosphere.

Sideway means the inevitable drift that British prefers = horizontal slips.

By using tires represented by Dunlop CR65, a classic racing tire with a bias structure, the vehicles are relatively easy to side -way, heating not only the driver but also the hearts of the viewers.

Another advantage is that vehicles are not stressed than modern high grip tires.

The side wait rophies use the Sodegaura Forest Raceway (FRW) as a home circuit, and is held twice a year in spring and autumn.

By the way, after changing the name to "The Festival of Side Wait Rophefie", it will celebrate its 10th anniversary next year.

Last year, the spring race was canceled due to the influence of the new colon virus, but this spring was held on May 30 after taking measures to prevent infection.

Like the Goodwood revival, the side -Wate trophy also includes a motorcycle race.

Let's take a closer look at the details of the class division in the next section.
