【Breaking News】Despite defending the class lead early in the Suzuka 8 Hours, a disappointing crash occurred. Battling through injuries, they fought to secure 7th place in the SST class!

Kaedear Racing Team Yokohama, operated by Kaedear Inc., completed its second year of participation in the 2026 Suzuka 8 Hours as "Dafy-Kaedear-RAC41-Honda".

 

Race Results: 7th in SST class / 31st overall (1 crash)

 

In our second year of competition, this was the team's first race in the rain. Encouraged by everyone's support, we managed a great start and were able to join the battle for the lead from the very beginning. We then managed to defend the class lead for about three hours. However, due to the difficult conditions, we unfortunately suffered a crash.

While the result is deeply frustrating, this year we were able to show you what it looks like to "keep running at the front." We received so many messages saying, "We are rooting for you. Let's fight together," which allowed us to race even stronger than last year. Once again, we strongly felt the power of your support. Thank you very much.

We will provide a full report in our upcoming race report.
