Few would know that dori dori-chan, as I call Keiichi Tsuchiya used to race in the FC3s in the JSS Japan Super Sport Sedan championship in the mid-late eighties. The FC3s in these events were PP versions and very fast.
Here is a final at fuji. He finished third after leading for a while at the super fast (old) Fuji speedway course. Last corner and straight line speeds were crazy.!
