Just a quick recap for Super GT 2011 Malaysia round, Team Weider HSV-010 took the win in GT500 while Team S Road MOLA GT-R and Team KEIHIN HSV-010 took second and third place. Nevertheless, it is a good weekend for Honda in Sepang Circuit.
While in GT300, Team HATSUNEMIKU GOODSMILE BMW took the win and follow by JIMGAINER DIXCEL DUNLOP Ferrari 458 and PACIFIC NAC IKAMUSUME Ferrari 430 in second and third. I will not drag too long on the result as it is quite literately well published and this post will be more focus on what i had experience thought out the event.

Here is the link of my earlier post on Super GT 2011 Saturday. As usual, i reached the track early in the morning and everyone were in a relax mood.

Soon the mood changed as team tried to make last minute data gathering and adjustment in the morning practice session. Just as i walk toward turn 15, I managed to get a quick snap of Team RIRE Racing Lamborghini coming to the pit.

Soon more cars get on the track for practice. Here is Team Keihin HSV-010.

As well as the highly colorful Shiden from Team EVANGELION.
