The Hi-Octane Nissan GTR R32 of Mark Berry and Russell Newman made a name for itself by dominating Dutton Rallies and sprint events. The freshly built Hi-Octane Nissan GTR R34 is a worthy successor to the R32.

Hi, my name is Andy Fox, I race a GQ Patrol in the Victorian Rounds of the Australian Off Road Racing Championship. Off Road Racing is like a small version of the Australian Safari. It’s racing along dirt tracks at up to 200kmh. The average event is 350 - 400kmh long. So to say it is punishing on the Patrol would be a gross understatement.

Grant Johnson’s Grove Fruit Juice Holden clipped the Armco fencing and speared the outside wall at full speed.
Read about how Grant describes the accident.

Yokohama is proud to be the official tyre supplier to the Yokohama V8 Utes Racing Series and the Aussie Racing Car Series.

Advances in technology and development of both vehicles and tyres have resulted in Yokohama's tyre offering for the serious circuit racer and tarmac rally specialist alike.

The entire tread surface of the A048 is one continuous block design. This new concept offers far greater rigidity, and results in extra cornering, braking and acceleration potential. The shaped tread surface also provides greater straight line stability and increased levels of steering torque, delivering higher confidence back to the driver.

The round casing tread design emulates the latest slick tyre technology, ensuring maximum change of direction capabilities with sure-footed handling. Combined with compounding developments to withstand higher grip levels in extreme conditions, the A048 is a true winner.

Whilst ideally suited for Targa type road events, club sprints, lap dash events, and circuit racing, we also have many customers who purchase this pattern for club level events such as Supersprints, Motorkanas and Hillclimbs. This is why the A048 is the largest selling and most favoured R-spec tyre in Australian Motor sport.

The A048 is the selected control tyre for the following racing categories of Motor Racing within Australia: -

• Yokohama V8 Utes Racing Series
• Australian Production Car Championship
• Aussie Racing Car Series
• Improved Production Racing Association
• Porsche 944 Challenge

It’s designed to heat up quickly, with a soft compound, and is designed for Time Attack, Supersprint, Lap Dash, Gymkhana and Hillclimb events.
A limited first shipment in the following sizes is arriving soon

Yokohama’s latest R-spec sprint tyre in soft and medium compounds

This tyre came first, second and third in the Superlap Time Attack event in March 2009. It did a best time of 1:12.10 around Oran Park’s GP circuit on the Tilton Interiors Mitsubishi Evo 9. Even the Mount Vincent wines Mitsubishi EvoX can do a 1:16.0 in Production Class specification.

The Nissan GTR R34 of Mark Berry lapped Eastern Creek in 1:37 in a Supersprint on 2 August 2009.

For racers and car enthusiasts with highly tuned cars. They use their car on the street and occasionally on the race track and want one tyre to do both duties. Available August 2009. Capable of a 59.945 lap time at Tsukuba Circuit Japan

If you want a high performance tyre that will give you comfort, low noise levels and good mileage this is not the tyre for you. Please choose the ADVAN Sport.

The ADVAN Neova AD08 bridges the gap between street tyres and race tyres. Street tyres work well when cold. Conventional rubber compounds reach their limit during high speed driving as heat softening quickly saps the tyres ability to grip the road. Using street tyres on the track can lead to slower lap times and rapid tread wear. Race tyres work well when hot. R-spec race tyres and slicks, on the other hand, generate heat which helps them grip the race track. They work best above 60 degrees Celsius. Race tyres work best in the first heat cycles, then performance begins to drop off. Using race tyres on the street is uneconomical as it can waste heat cycles and reduce tyre performance.
