The series kicks off at Kyoto Ring GP Long Reversed Circuit with the Kyoto 225 on September 2nd. This opening event has been reduced by three laps from 2011 in order to shorten the race duration and increase the number of drivers who will be able to complete the race without pitting for rubber. This race was won last year by Elton Chong by 52 seconds due to the fact that all of his closest competitors had to stop for tyres. We hope to be able to avoid such a run-away victory this year. This event went caution free last year and had 21 competitors.
