What you should know before you go

Grip and drift both priced the same, with optional race sessions and — unusually — a 体験走行枠 taster slot for people who have never driven on a circuit. Motorland Suzuka’s own calendar marks Oct 23–25 only as 占有 (private hire) with a note that non-participants may be refused, so the organiser’s announcement is the only place the content of the day exists. Entry via a QR code and link in the announcement thread.
