What did we get out of this tour? A Toyota sponsorship! Foreign automotive company in America's racing organization flagship. I'd say it was WORTH the visit!
As a greek fan, nascar is the best Championship in my opinion. I feel like it's made for men. V8s, Loud and bright cars with the pedal to the metal on high speed tracks. I really wish nascar came to Greece too
They should do something like "The NASCAR World Series". The drivers from Monster Energy in the US, Pinty's from Canada, Peak Series representing Mexico, and The Euro Series race all over different speedways and a few road courses around the world like Motegi in Japan, Laursitz in Germany, Venray in The Netherlands, Calder Park Thunderdome in Australia, Autodromo Abed in Mexico, Brands Hatch Indy course in England, Penbay Circuit in Taiwan, and the final championship race at Daytona.
It would be cool if NASCAR created a Japan series. If NASCAR created three in Mexico, Canada and even a European series. Why not Japan? Japan is on my list of expanding the NASCAR series brand in the near future and it’s in number one in my list without a doubt... they have great road courses including the oval at Twin Ring Motegi...
What people forget and understandably forget is that we lost all time great cup and pace car driver Elmo Langley the first time they were there and Bill France Jr. had a heart attack following year
@TheSDagger I'm just imagining Chase Elliott and Kyle Larson driving into the final chicane, flames spitting out of the car and beautiful raw horsepower shaking the stands.
Japan might not be the best option in the future but Australia absolutely is. Get them to Sydney for a night race (morning in the US). They already have a decent nascar following and some supercars talent in the field would sell the place out
Nascar needs to do a World Tour. Put the cup cars out on the most famous tracks in the world.
Le Mans, Nurermbergring, Twin Ring Motegi, and Brands Hatch.
@@ainahko16 Bathurst as well
Spa 🙏🏻
Hold up just like f1 the Circuit needs to be the class NASCAR races in road coarse
Imagine NASCAR at Monza
The Drift King Keiichi Tsuchiya sitting beside Jeff Gordon and in front of Dale Sr. Three motorsport legends together.
NASCAR needs more of this.
5:12 Tsuchiya Keiichi explaining Japanese food to Jeff Gordon. Legends.

Now this is a documentary worth watching
Anyone else want an NASCAR anime now?
Anyone? Just me?
That would go hard
There actually was one in the 2000s called Nascar Racers
@@DixytheGoat9 i wouldnt call that anime tho!
Holy shit I just watched DK Tsuchiya and Jeff Gordon try to figure out if that was chicken or pork
Bring NASCAR back to Japan!
Rusty waving the American and Japanese flag was class. Racing can bring two vastly different cultures together.
PLEASE more racing in Japan
This is the GOLDEN AGE of NASCAR so many iconic drivers and cars.

If we got Nascar "Japanese" series, that will be cool 👍
Or could integrate some international events onto the cup series, for example, the Eurospeedway Lausitz, Germany.
@@theothergtgeek9407 in Europe Nascar allready Has Nascar Euronwheels series

Per continent NASCAR competition. Then go to the US or somewhere to compete with other continents.

Imagine they do this again and Yuki Tsunoda participates
LOL! Rusty saying Arigato and Ohayo killed me.
All three races are up on UA-cam and are totally worth watching.
NASCAR ‘s first Japanese race
3:10 LEGEND RIGHT HERE
What people forget and understandably forget is that we lost all time great cup and pace car driver Elmo Langley the first time they were there and Bill France Jr. had a heart attack following year
Imagine the next Gen at Suzuka with HD coverage. Would be just legendary.
The full circuit, that would be beyond epic!
@@PaperBanjo64 absolutely!
@TheSDagger I'm just imagining Chase Elliott and Kyle Larson driving into the final chicane, flames spitting out of the car and beautiful raw horsepower shaking the stands.
@@PaperBanjo64 and Larson dumping Elliot for the win again 😂 but no for real that would be awesome
We need it back in Japan
Man i would love to see nascar over the world
I thought bit was a awesome race. Loved watching Gordon and Earnhardt sr drag race down those straight aways. It was epic.
I love this. Thank you so much for finding this and uploading it.
4:41 Rusty has the emphasis completely on the wrong syllables. XD
NASCAR should do a Clash Race outside the U.S. like at Bathurst Australia or Kyalami South Africa.
I ember as a little boy watching these wish they’d till did the Japanese people are very polite and friendly and love different stuff like that.
I think Japan would have embraced NASCAR if they had just kept going.
Forget about the west coast dorks NASCAR in Japan would have been beyond cool!
Couldn’t agree more. If they would’ve gone maybe one more year that might’ve gotten it to take off.
Japan might not be the best option in the future but Australia absolutely is. Get them to Sydney for a night race (morning in the US). They already have a decent nascar following and some supercars talent in the field would sell the place out
Ive seen this whole thing but man where can I find the full race in this quality
I made a Playlist of all NASCAR events held in Japan.
ua-cam.com/play/PLIWbDHJeoBk8mrsxx4Pjvqwnn0_Mzvcs7.html
This event was how kyle larson was born
Jeff: I heard a lot of people go into McDonald’s
Me: tupid you could have gone to McDonald’s
I wanna see nascar race at silverstone, monza, or spa
Thanks for uploading!
Badass finish with Earnhardt & Gordon door to door!
A stock car can race like a f1 race car but a f1 race can’t race like a stock car. Haha
Twin wing Motegi oval and road corse oval racing
Maybe perfect for the Xfinity series and cup Series races
🍆?
Fuck thats so cool
they have an oval track to right?
Yes,its called motegi
@@shss1421 Sadley that track was demolished by an earthquake
@@DixytheGoat9well it wasn't but the oval was damaged and they just said fuck it and let it go. Road Course is still in use regularly
Neat.
I’m glad that Sailor Moon wasn’t real or else it will be a big mistake for myself to Nascar. 😶😶😶😶😶😶😶😶😶😶😶😶
Bring NASCAR back to Japan!
