Wow, i though the feed car outclassed his hard in the straight line, but the re amemeya car was clearly better in the corners. hard to say who would own on the track.

i dont know the specs of the cars but it seemed that the feed card had alittle too much power, he couldnt get on it w/out getting loose, anyone know what these cars do at tsukuba? i bet the feed car would be faster. The fact of the matter is that both of these cars are amazing

It probably doesn't hurt that Tsuchiya (better known as the Drift King) was driving the RE Amemiya car. If they really want to compare the cars, the drivers should switch cars and do multiple runs.

The other driver is a world class JGTC driver - and can hold his own.

if you notice, the FEED car was very twitchy in the turns. the driver kept having to get off throttle to keep it in line. I think it needs some more tweaking.

Those videos are always done with top notch racing drivers. But even JGTC drivers are not created equal, which doesn't mean Tsuchiya is better, but he did practically invent touge racing/drifting.

It seems that each car had it's issues. The RE Amemiya car had very slight understeer and the Feed car had oversteering issues. Nice vid though!

i would both cars are good at different things. But in that race, RE Amemiya is better at Touge. The feed car is a bit over powered and suspension is a bit to hard. Combine these 2 points, the feed 7 just keeps over steering so that causes the driver to get off the throttle. While the RE 7 has an adeque amount of power but a little less responsive in handling. This is always good for fast drivers, because it makes them feel safer.
Even Zonda has mild understeer. so here you go.

in and earlyer video they said that this cars are capable of 58 to 59 seconds around tsukuba.

In a real race track such as tsukuba fujitas car would blow pass amemiya's car

It does? There are quite a number of blue ReSuperG FD's that looks similar to that one.
