2:27, a prius pulling away from an amg gt. Never though i’d see the day.
It ain't slow anymore lol
The Priii in this series are very competitive. Started from poll or #2 the last 2 races. The BRZ is also competitive.
But the championship has still been dominated by the GT3 spec cars over the years.
Super GT has come a long way since gran turismo 4...
Back when it was JGTC too. Since 2004 when Gran Turismo 4 was released and was the last year it was called JGTC and then a year later called Super GT.
Hello viewer
hello viewers, super GT here...
Lmfao
@Byron Katcsmorak weird but ok
Love this series, just wished that they showed it on US television. NISMO bein real here bringing SGT content for others
Fives I feel yuh
you can find full races on CZcams
Finally actual cars racing LOL
actually,.. though they may look like cars you can buy, they are far from production cars. they simply look like it from the outside, but inside, the shell, the chassis, even the driver's seat is closer to the middle of the car than a production car.
Gran Turismo made me fall in love with this series.
I never had a PlayStation, but the Gran Turismo movie that came out this year sparked a new fascination of GT racing in me, despite never watching any other racing or even knowing anything about cars. It’s overwhelming but understanding cars and mods and how they work is a dream of mine.
This has been my favorite racing series for a very long time!!! They could make the GT300 series a bit more simple so that the fans can understand it and follow it better
The Japanese people understand it all just fine...
i understand it just fine plus the variety is what keeps it interesting
Good explanation for a new fan, thanks.
They're my favorite cars from the early Gran Turismo games
I remember when Super GT used to be called JGTC (Japan Grand Touring Championship)
Flashbacks to the Castrol TOM'S Supra JGTC '00 from Gran Turismo 4
LMP1 car is faster than GT500. But lets remember LMP1 are pototypes and GT500 are heavily tuned cars.GT500 cars are incredible fast.
Av3ntur0zky The are not heavily tuned car. They use a complete spec chassis which is close to an LMP1 monocoque.
I looked up: in 2019 the Toyota TS050 LMP1 did 1:25 in Fuji, the fastest LMP2 did 1:29, the SuperGT pole lap was 1:28. WOW I didn’t expect that!
for reference, the 2008 F1 pole lap was a 1:18
That's not true. GT500 cars just like DTM are essentially prototypes that look like a super car.
Rex Song still slower
GT300, rather than GT500, is the one that is a heavily tuned road car since most of them are using GT3 spec cars.
GT500 is basically a prototype with a road car appearance. Their inline-4 engine is also used in Super Formula racing cars.
If only we had a one off race here in Europe
Im still waiting superGT come to malaysia once more :(
We getting them back by 2020 bro
at that time I will make sure I make it to the race!
Too bad
@@mirata7748 its sad really, i was getting hyped up
@@izzdin6228 nah, JAF said, they will push back to 2022, cause 2021 is cancelled again with Thailand, and 2020 Season is already done with Malaysia is cancelled
But before it became the Super GT, it was known as JGTC.
Yup, if u played gran Turismo. The supra, GTR and NSX has JGTC name. But it still called Super GT back then. maybe JGTC refered to japanese GT Car, while in europe it called GT1, or GT2
I was waiting this video for years!! Thanks a lot!!!! 😙
Watching this in 2020 and lovin' it. Sam's technical explanations over on the F1 channel is a much needed boost.
I'd so love that format in germany...
A combination of DTM and GT Masters would be great but a lot of people would just hate on it.
They need to do something soon otherwise there won't be a DTM in a couple years.
Super
Super
@@taomasterwaka6287 RIP Audi in DTM after this season
Bro u still there?
I so wish you were still showing the races, I so enjoyed the race and the English commentary. Please bring it back.
One more thing to note about Super GT; to prevent outright dominance from one car in a given class, Balance of Performance functions moreso as a handicap system, with higher ballast penalties for the current championship leaders.
Super Video!!! Thank you very much!!!
Nissan Nismo #1
Thank you for this. Very informative.
Incredible explanation! Thanks!!!!
so well explained about SuperGT!
Short and sweet explanation thank you!
Amazing racing series !
Please do more of these! IMSA, WEC etc
Super GT is fantastic :)
How do i get sponsorship?
calsonic skyline and motul gtr design and looks capture my attention

Aren't there weight penalties as well?? Part 2 video please

This race so underrated
The live of the race starts at 12 or 13pm but the the race starts at 5:30am the description says, isn't live the race then ?
NISMO TV thanks for the answer and your work guys ! :)
In GT300, are all those different categories racing against each other or only within their categories?
They're up against each other
I’m hoping they’ll add like a super gt version of a Kei car as a class or as a separate support series , gt200 or gt150? lol
Would be awesome to see those little things with crazy aero and power racing each other.
If kei cars were to race in the Super GT, it would be GT64💀
the best series for watching cars that look like actual cars battle it out.
Ah... I would put GT3 (Blancpain) in front of it.
DTM
@@Maenfy or V8 supercars
For aclamation the GT racing lover requiere the ITR/DTM - JAF/SuperGT definitive unificataion!
really really new to super GT… can anyone guide me to a schedule of some sort so i could watch
This is real car race
Super GT reminds me of DTM!
Toyota vs Honda vs Nissan vs Subaru
Mercedes vs BMW vs Volkswagon-Audi
Lexus vs Acura vs Infiniti
They do use the same Class 1 regulation like DTM (minus DRS), which is the reason why they're so similar.
Sadly DTM is in a really bad shape compared to Super GT.
Way wut is that sam collins?
Hello viewers
3:18 'Hatsune miku amg?' lmaooo
And then... the SupraGT happened. With the Supra(s) sweeping 1-4 of the GT500. and 1st in GT300. 😱
2020 Fuji
Suzuka 1000km this weekend. Hype.
the gt500 and gt300 are actually named after the amount of power in kw that the cars produce with gt500 producing 650-670hp (about 500kw) and the least powerful gt 300 producing 400hp (300kw)
They were named based on the power in PS. Hence the 500ps (495bhp) and 300ps (295bhp) before the association adapt to the Class One regulations.
These FIA GT3 cars were detuned to that power for example.
It's not Steve Alvarez Brown? :O
The USA needs network coverage of Super GT. We'd once CZcams full race coverage, but that has diminished over the last year.
Does this video mean Sam won't explain it 1000 times over the 1000km at the weekend? 😉
Good. I'll be expecting it!
now i understands why all cars very close and in sim racing driving fills very similar .
Did i hear this right? Gt500 cars use 2l 4 cylinder engines?
John k yes they do
John k yes. GT500 cars has 550ps (542hp)
@@andylogan78
"GT500 cars has 550ps"
Did you watch the video? 550ps is for GT300 cars
Initially the gt500 and gt300 are based on their rough amount of horsepower. But now, it is only a title. Gt500 cars actually has 650hp 2liter i4.
3:01 Why is there a Hatsune Miku car
Due to sponsorship.
Goodsmile Racing. GT300 Champions, been racing with Miku since 2009

@@uevortex2958 My mistake
Cheeky little self promotion with the biggest and baddest of them all GT500 GTR 😉I like it
It's a 4 cylinder , wow
Super GT is the best
Could we get a side by side comparison of a GT500 car and an LMP1 car around Fuji then?
kayto86 need to wait for the wec to race a Fuji first due to the new lmp1s and gt500s
The LMP1 cars would easily win in terms of performance.
LP for ever they would win in a race but the gt500s have got a higher top speed it's the hybrid boost out of the corners in which allow the lmp1s to be quicker in terms of race pace as they can get to their top speed quicker.
LMP1 cars are also way faster through corners thanks to huge amount of downforce.
LP for ever yes they are.
And what about DTM? is the same 650hp with gt500??
No, DTM had 100hp less than GT500 but I guess they are a little quicker than GT300.
@@michaellafalce7350 no, DTM cars had 610 hp (I say "had" because this year the Class One cars will be replaced by GT3 cars)
@@simoneburini4036 I know but this was about the 2018 season cause this guy wrote his comment over two years ago and the DTM cars of that time was the last year they had 4.0l V8 with around 550hp
@@michaellafalce7350 you're right
Sam now works for f1
JGTC to Super GT!!!
Yeah, since the 2004 JGTC round in america, it became Super GT because they've been sort of racing at places outside japan aside Malaysia.
Because of super gt i low key want a prius
What will happen if super gt300 buffed the horsepower limit to 600 horsepower, how will it affect the race?
Hello viewers Super GT here
Hey, i found the guy in F1 techtalk
DTM +SUPER GT🤔🤔🤷🏻♂️😍
I WANT TO SEE HATSUNE MIKU AT DAYTONA AND SEBRING
Explain GT teams , League ,how many types of GT Race's in the world (like formula:-1,2,3,4) ??
3 types are available.
GTE, GT3, GT4.
+) GT500 cars is not Grand Tourer, they're Class 1 Touring Cars. But C1s are way more faster than GTs.
@@uevortex2958 mercedes Benz GTcar comes in 3-4 colour they are different teams or common team
@@rajkargutkar3751 Mostly different team.
That's insane that you can squeeze that much power out of a 4 cylinder engine
Isn't Mazda's DPi entry in IMSA a 600+ hp 4-cylinder? I've always wondered why Mazda didn't apply that same tech to Super GT.
@@xiii-Dex Mazda is a relatively small company compared to Japan's Big Three to be fair, so they probably don't have the budget for a lot of motorsport ventures like Toyota with their GR motorsport for example.
I hope they put a new civic type r there.
3:02 hatsune miku amg?
So this is why all the cars sound the same haha, was wondering why GTR’s in races never sounded like GTR’s. What a bummer
Well supergt is Steve Alvarez brown
Pretty certain GT 500 cars are very equal to DTM cars??
@LT-48 he especifically said gt500 are more powerful, yet in Wikipedia it says that they have the same power but somehow gt500 are still way faster.
@@juliom3775
SuperGT has a tire war.
Bridgestone, Michelin, Yokohama and Dunlop.
And there are slightly different restrictions on minor aerodynamic parts.
But the DTM.................
@@juliom3775 DTM cars had 40 hp less
Yep come stock with v6's but are ripped out for a more powerful I4. The Honda guys are really taking over
GT 500: we only have 4 cylinder 2 Liter turbo charge engine but producing 650 Hp.
Current F1: challenge accepted!
what was he saying at 2:04?
"Tyre war class", he just kind of swallows the words. It just means a class of racing where there are multiple tyre manufacturers competing, so they wind up creating incredible high-performing tyres specifically for the cars. Whereas if a class only has one tyre manufacturer, they generally play it safe because tyre failures look bad for the company (and hurt the racing quality).
This is what it would look like if NASCAR embraces technological advancements and ditches the cookie cutter speedways. In case Super GT plans to do another event in the states, here's a list of good circuits.
-Laguna Seca
-Sebring
-Road America
-Indianapolis Motor Speedway (GP layout)
-Daytona International Speedway (24hr Layout)
-Charlotte Roval
-Circuit of the Americas (F1)
-Sonoma
-Lime Rock
-Watkins Glen
hello viewers. super GT here lol.
Gran Turismo brought me here.
these cars are actually faster than the 2021 wec hypercars
And looks better. Don’t understand why LeMan don’t use these class 1 beasts
@@ThePape78looked Better,not in 2023,now looks awesome
Surely GT stands for Grand Turisimo (Grand touring) A high performance car with limited luggage space for high speed continental travel.
Super GT is Steve Alvarez Brown, easy!
That's why JDM is the best in the world, Banzai!
GT500 vs GT3/GTE? That's the stuff everyone wants to know.
Felixo he jest told you... And GT3 and GTE are different things.
Gt3 slower then gte
@@dreharris5403 not true, GT3 are just as quick as GTE, if you look at the quali times on Fuji on Super GT (GT300) and WEC (GTE Am, GTE Pro) they post similar lap times.
Did you watched the video?
GT300 have GT3 cars, cause it fit in specs... so, its inferior to GT500
GT500 pole laps are about 2~4sec behind LMP1
Theres no chance to a GT3 car
@@michaellafalce7350 The GT300 cars can keep up with WEC GTE a bit better because of the tire war. Regular GT3 cars are slower than GTE at most tracks. Fuji is also a very favorable track for GT3 vs. GTE, because GT3 cars do well in a straight line. GTE makes a lot of time over GT3 in the corners as they have much more downforce.
dtm is slower even with DRS ?
DTM cars have far less power.
Aiman Razak And that quite a lot. Have you ever seen dtm go 300 km/h? They are not even close. And I think cornering speed is higher in super gt. So all pluses on Japanese side, sorry.
DTM cars aren´t really slower than GT500 cars, but they are restricted to a topspeed of about 250 km/h.
They have cca 150HP less. Not slower?
Not slower through corners.
if you want to know more about super gt from car to point calculation, here's the PDF
supergt.net/upload/GT_FUNBOOK_EN_0612-3.pdf
Damn imagine when cars become fully electric, no more engine roar, turbo/supercharger whine.
Germans should enter gt500 just make their DTM cars more powerful etc and boom u can get 2-3 more cars and help solidify it
I got into sports cars for the unique sound they each make, sad to find out they never keep the best sounding engines in races, such a disappointment jeez.
You know you can go watch the GT300 class if you want to hear that, right?
You got your usual GT3 cars with engines like Porsche's F6, Lambo's V10, AMG's V8, and NSX & GTR's V6, alongside GTA-GT300 cars that uses engines like a Boxer 4, V8, & V8 Hybrid, and Mother Chassis cars with Nissan V8s. There are quite a lot of engine configuration to listen to.
Imagine you driving an AMG or BMW, and you can’t overtake the prius infront of you
Can a Super GT car be All Wheel Drive ?
Nope. Has to be RWD.
GT500 are LMP1-L cars cosplaying as GT cars.
According to my understanding from this video, GT500 is faster DTM both in corner and straight line. And GT300 = GT3 , except one can customise and build his own GT300 car but not GT3.
@Den Chan, I think that super GT and DTM are very similar, they raced this year at both a DTM and super GT track, and it was fairly competitive, with a DTM car winning at Hockenheim and a super GT car winning at Fuji
@@j2f141 Super GT cars had serious problems with tyre performance due to conditions in Hockenheim, this because their tyre suppliers design bespoke tyres to the circuits gt500 race in, in wet they're about 10 seconds slower but ended up being much slower.
Now I gotta ask, what is your favorite team/teams out of the bunch? Personally, as a bit of an anime fan, my favorite is quite obvious: the GoodSmile Racing Hatsune Miku Team, whether they drove the GT3 Z4, the SLS AMG or the all new GT3 AMG. But out of those, the BMW has got to be my favorite. Also, it's quite to surprising to see a Finn race in the series but nonetheless awesome as I get to root for my favorite diva and a fellow countryman in the same sport! Always hoping to see those two finish on the podium in their own classes!
Riposte I miss the Mobil 1 NSX and the Pennzoil GTR livery.
As a personal sponsor, I support GoodSmile Racing XD Though I love Studie and B-MAX as well XD
As for GT500... Team IMPUL Calsonic GT-R is my favorite XD
the audio b roll of lambo/audi v10s is annoying
really???....did you say gtr has used 2l 4 cylinder engine????...are you sure????
