What if you enjoyed the 8 Hours more in your own way?
Following up on the previous time when we experienced the intensity of the race and the tension in the pits, this time, we talked about our ideal ways to spend the day and what we wish existed, under the theme "How would I enjoy it?".
Before you know it, you might find yourself imagining, "An 8 Hours like this could be great!"
I want to plan a full day to enjoy the Suzuka 8 Hours!

If you could spend one day at the 8-hour endurance race freely, how would you spend it?

8-hour Endurance Race! Ultimate Plan

Start with a dash after waking up at 5 a.m.!
Watching the race, pool, festival, fireworks... ending with a late night soaking in the afterglow. This is my all-out 8-hour endurance race.

A Relaxed and Enjoyable Day Plan

Watch the start carefully, then take it at your own pace with gourmet food, snacks, and breaks.
Because it's hot, I prefer to enjoy it without overdoing it.

Zero Pass Full Utilization Plan

Breakfast from a food truck, amusement park and festival in the afternoon, and a relaxing hot spring vibe at night. A full day plan to thoroughly enjoy with the Zero Pass!
*Hot springs and stays at the Circuit Hotel are not covered by the Zero Pass.
Reservations at the Circuit Hotel are quite difficult during the Suzuka 8 Hours period. But if you're lucky, you might be able to stay... maybe!?

A Relaxed All-Day Plan

Lunch at food stalls, attractions in the afternoon, watch the “race running with the sunset behind” in the evening, then head out for dinner at night.
A flexible plan that lets you move around freely according to your mood!

You might think you have to watch the race the whole time, but that's not the case.
You can enjoy it at your own pace, picking and choosing the parts you like.

Last year I was working, but this year I want to enjoy it to the fullest! The pool, the festival, and the race too.
I think the charm of the 8-hour endurance race is that there are many ways to enjoy it.

Whether you go hard or take it easy, as long as you enjoy it your own way, that’s the "right" way.
The ambassadors' Suzuka 8 Hours plans might have been a little helpful?
Next, think about how you would spend your time while looking at the Suzuka 8 Hours timetable!

Mr. Yoshioka
SUZUKA CIRCUIT Mr. Yoshioka
They came up with ideas that we on the management side would never have thought of, which was really inspiring.
Especially the perspective of an "8-hour endurance race you can participate in" opens up new possibilities for the future.
Ms. Koharu Kuroe

They all looked so much fun that I wanted to come again as a spectator.
I definitely want to try things like photo booths and stamp rallies!
The 8-hour race isn’t just about watching,
I think I get it now!

At first, I just thought, "It’s a motorcycle race, right?" but after actually watching, talking, and experiencing it—
Before I knew it, it had become a little bit personal to me.
