Endless / Zeal R34 GTR Class 1 Super Taikyu racecar
"With the suspension of production car sales, racing activities were also temporarily suspended. The GT-R, which had been the "strongest production car" since the days of "N-Tai", the predecessor of S-Tai, continued to reign as the "best racing machine" until the very end."

I'm back on the road. Apparently, I was missing in Tumblr, but I've had some reasons why I was inactive in the website until I came back, like... Mostly busy with other stuff and other artworks I wanted to finish, as well as with issues I have gained like, when my own Dell Optiplex ran into issues and had to be formatted as a result. Later, I've got a new PC tower case, but my father will actually try to focus on repairing the old one, as I can't risk of losing the old one which I've liked.
But as I'm enough with the talk, I've finished working on my own art of an EG6 Civic, but instead, as a Super Taikyu racer from the 90s, carrying the Portuguese sponsors and especially using the Galp colors, combined with the Advan livery. I also gave it the Advan GT rims for it.

The last weekend of SRO Motorsports America racing in 2024 receives a huge boost in star power as world-renowned actor Keanu Reeves will compete in this weekend’s Toyota Gazoo Racing GR Cup North America finale – his first motor race in over 14 years.
Reeves will drive the #92 Eagles Canyon Racing by Fast Track Toyota GR86 in a pair of sprint races on Saturday and Sunday, 5/6 October. The car will feature a red and black livery promoting his graphic novel, BRZRKR.
The Canadian actor is an avid enthusiast of motorsport. Reeves was the presenter of the four-part documentary Brawn: The Impossible Formula 1 Story and has been a guest of honour in the paddocks of F1, MotoGP, and IndyCar throughout the years.
Reeves drove in the 2009 and 2010 editions of the Toyota Pro/Celebrity Race at Long Beach, winning the Celebrity class in 2009 and receiving a promotion to the Pro category the following year. That was the last time Reeves has run in an organised motor race.
Since then, Reeves has gone on to star in the John Wick series of action films, reprised his role as Neo in The Matrix Resurrections, and published the first chapter of BRZRKR in 2021 alongside co-writer Matt Kindt and illustrator Ron Garney.
Reeves is one of two celebrity drivers competing at Indianapolis this weekend, part of a 34-car field.
Eagles Canyon and Fast Track’s other celebrity driver is Cody Jones from the action sports and entertainment troupe Dude Perfect, which has over 60 million subscribers on YouTube.
Nicknamed “Tall Man”, the 6’6″ Jones’ sanctioned racing debut in the #29 GR86 was the prize for winning a go-kart racing challenge at this year’s Formula One Australian Grand Prix against three of his fellow troupe members.
Reeves and Jones will be pitted against a strong field of drivers young and old, including the newly-crowned GR Cup North America Champion Gresham Wagner.
Wagner, the driver of the #5 Copeland Motorsports GR86, clinched the series championship last round at Barber Motorsports Park. At the Brickyard, Wagner will look to add to his eight wins on the season – before heading to Road Atlanta to try and win the Mazda MX-5 Cup championship.
Second place in the championship is still up for grabs between Wagner’s team-mate, Westin Workman (another driver running dual GR Cup/MX-5 Cup campaigns) and Spike Kohlbecker of TechSport Racing. Workman enters the final weekend of the season six points ahead of Kohlbecker.
Jaxon Bell, the son of 2015 IMSA GTD Champion and 2016 Le Mans 24 Hours winner Townsend Bell, is fourth in the championship.
Another guest driver of note is Miki Koyama from Japan, driving the #75 Hattori Motorsports GR86 in partnership with Japan’s all-female KYOJO Cup Series.
Koyama, the inaugural KYOJO Cup champion in 2017 and 2018, became the first woman to win the FIA Formula Regional Japanese Championship title in 2022 – and last week, driving a Lexus RC F GT3, she became the first woman to take overall victory in a Super Taikyu Series race since 1993.
Koyama is one of four women in the field, joining Mia Lovell, Jade Avedisian, and Maddie Aust. Lovell is the series’ top female driver (10th in overall points and the top-ranked woman in nine out of 12 races) – and Avedisian, a Toyota-backed prospect of the open-wheel oval circuit, finished second in last weekend’s BC39 sprint car race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway dirt track.
Saturday and Sunday, 5/6 October 2024

Jann Mardenborough is a name that resonates with racing enthusiasts and fans of the Gran Turismo movie alike. His story—a remarkable journey from avid gamer to professional race car driver—has inspired millions worldwide. With his life under the spotlight following the Netflix release of Gran Turismo, questions about his personal life, including the identity of "Jann Mardenborough wife," have become a topic of curiosity. The impact of the Gran Turismo movie, and the truth about his relationships.
The Life of Jann Mardenborough: A Gamer-Turned-Racer
From Video Games to Real-Life Racing
Jann Mardenborough, born in the United Kingdom, first made headlines as a gamer who turned his passion for racing simulations into a professional career. His breakthrough came when he became one of the youngest winners of the GT Academy competition, a global initiative by Nissan and PlayStation to transform gamers into race car drivers.
Mardenborough’s victory in the GT Academy launched his professional racing career, leading him to compete in prestigious events such as the 24 Hours of Le Mans, FIA Formula 3, and Japanese Super GT. His story is one of talent, determination, and a seamless transition from virtual tracks to real-world circuits.
Gran Turismo: The Movie That Changed It All
The 2023 film Gran Turismo propelled Jann Mardenborough into the global limelight. Based on his life, the movie narrates the story of a young gamer who rises to become a professional racer, defying odds and stereotypes. While it captures the highs and lows of his career, the inclusion of a fictional love interest, Audrey, left fans speculating about Mardenborough’s real-life relationships.
Audrey’s character, portrayed by Maeve Courtier-Lilley, symbolizes companionship and emotional support in the movie. However, no evidence suggests that Audrey is based on any real-life partner of Jann Mardenborough.
Does Jann Mardenborough Have a Wife?Current Relationship Status
As of 2024, Jann Mardenborough is not married and does not have a wife. He has remained exceptionally private about his personal life, refraining from sharing details about romantic relationships in public or through social media.
The Sophie Hulme Connection

However, neither party has confirmed these speculations, and their relationship appears to be limited to friendship. Despite media attention, no concrete evidence supports the notion of a romantic connection between the two.
Focus on Career Over Romance
Mardenborough’s priority has always been his career. From competing in high-profile races to contributing to the development of the Nissan Formula E simulator, he has consistently demonstrated a single-minded dedication to motorsport.
The Impact of Personal Tragedy on His Career
One of the most challenging periods in Mardenborough’s career occurred during the 2015 Nürburgring race, where his car crashed into a spectator area, resulting in a fatality. This tragic incident profoundly affected his mental health and racing career, forcing him to step back temporarily.
Over time, Mardenborough returned to the track, using his experiences to inspire resilience in others. His comeback is a testament to his strength and perseverance.
Jann Mardenborough’s Career Today
In 2023, Mardenborough participated in the Fuji 24 Hours Super Taikyu Series, finishing in fourth place with his team. He also continues to work on Nissan’s Formula E simulator, contributing to advancements in motorsport technology.
Conclusion

For now, the British racing star remains single, channeling his energy into motorsport and inspiring a new generation of racers.

Toyota представя нов автомобил с водородно гориво
Toyota представя нов автомобил с водородно гориво: GR H2 Racing
Toyota представи задвижвания с водород състезателен автомобил, който проектира за 24-часовите състезания на Льо Ман. Ето подробностите! Toyota се състезава с водородно задвижваната Corolla в японската гама Super Taikyu от 2021 г. насам, а нейният хибриден хиперавтомобил GR010 взе подиума на миналогодишния Льо Ман. Марката не е непозната за моторните спортове с ниски и нулеви емисии. Специално създаден водороден автомобил като GR H2 демонстрира стратегията на компанията за автомобилите. Toyota представя състезателна кола, задвижвана с водород Въпреки че звеното Gazoo Racing не е разкрило техническите спецификации, привлекателността на автомобила е очевидна. Автомобилът е превозно средство без емисии, което може да прекара повече време в състезания и да зарежда гориво за кратко време. Toyota все още не е казала дали и кога готов за състезания GR H2 ще излезе на пистата. Марката съобщи, че автомобилът е създаден за "бъдеща конкуренция". Разкритието дойде в деликатен момент за Toyota. След години на съпротива на сегмента в полза на хибридите и водородните автомобили, марката измества фокуса си към електромобилите. В същото време новият изпълнителен директор Коджи Сато иска да се увери, че водородът остава „жизнеспособен вариант“. GR H2 може да бъде улика за това как Toyota се справя с тази дилема: докато се е обърнала към автомобили в стил EV като bZ4X и Lexus RZ, тя може да продължи да използва водород в категории, където бързите спирания са важни, като състезания и превоз с камиони.
