TAKAHASHI"The Road You Know Is the Best Road" Volume



Hi everyone, this is Tetsuo.
At the World Championship, which got everyone excited, I was assigned the title 'Gen Sasaki,' by the foreign participants, which I should be happy about, I guess?

Last time I asked "Which is the road, you want to drive on the most?" in the Future Lab News, and within less than a month I received many responses.
What’s more, it was really surprising that there were so many different responses. As always, here are everyone’s answers.

... Well, this was our version of the “Most Popular Roads All Over Japan.” or "The Road You Know Is the Best Road!" I guess this is the best way to put it!
I bet there are a number of roads you have driven on, right? As for me, I counted all the ones I've driven on, and there were 28. I'd like to drive on all of them someday!

Now, this is the road, which is going to appear in the new Wangan Maxi 4, which our development team is working hard on at the moment.
Here are the photos from the shoot of the already presented additional course, the Minato Mirai route.  These are photos from within the tunnel part, and as you can see the color of the walls and the open ceiling are its characteristic features.

The Minato Mirai route starts at the Yokohane route's Namamugi JCT, then goes through Yokohama station and Minato Mirai district, crosses the Bay Bridge, and finally leads to the Wangan route's Daikoku JCT, which everyone is familiar with.
Exciting high-speed corners come in succession, going through a tunnel, which grazes the base of the skyscrapers, and then reaching the vast harbor, which is straddled by the huge Bay Bridge, which is a full throttle straight section. Good~Feels good~The seashore highway! I can't wait to push my Aristo to the limit on this road!

Alright, till next time!
