Atsushi Kuroi took First Place in his Nissan PS13 Silvia at the 2007 D1 Grand Prix Japan Round 2 held at Fuji Speedway – Shizuoka, Japan.

The Second Round of D1 Grand Prix was held on April 28th and 29th during the Japanese holiday of Golden Week. Golden week is the longest vacation period of the year for many Japanese workers. Judging for Round 2 started at the 300R corner and ended at the following hairpin curve. Fuji Speedway is also home to Formula 1 races and therefore is known as being a very high-speed course. To put things into perspective, driver entry speed for the 300R corner was measured at over 110 mph.
