Trivia

• Coincidentally, all races in this event, which involves cars produced in Japan, take place in Japanese soil.
• In the NTSC-U version of the game, the Infiniti G35 COUPE '03 can appear as an opponent in this event, although players cannot use it as it is treated as an American car in the game. This is because the car is a regional trade-in for the Nissan SKYLINE Coupe 350GT '03.
