Porsche 911 GT3 drive
Sunday, May 26, 2019. I had some errands, so I ran the Porsche 911 GT3 to Tsukuba Circuit for a while and went out to play happily!
It's been a while since I've been riding GT3, so I'm really entertained by driving alone in GT3 after a long time ^^
From the middle, a blue Boxster ran behind me, so I was able to run while glancing at the boxster over the wings of the rearview mirror, which was really fun.
At Tsukuba Circuit, I'm not driving this time, but I was able to put in the B paddock and parked in a wonderful place. Thank you ^^
At the Tsukuba Circuit on that day, a race-style send-off party was held, and the purpose was to go to see it. Roadster, Nissan Fairlady Z, Lotus Elise, etc. are running.
Even if I come to such a place, it's a lot of fun because I've been able to get acquainted with people and talk with people I met ^^
The temperature on that day was so hot that the maximum temperature exceeded 35 degrees even though it was still May, so I think it was really hard for drivers who drive with racing suits, helmets, and no air conditioner. increase.
I love my car (laughs)
While watching such people running ..., when I suddenly noticed, that? What are you seeing over there?
Well, that is ...
Hmmm, it's not a nice GT3! !! I know ... (laughs).
No, when I came into view, I just saw it. It feels like how much you like your car. I'm sorry ^^
By the way, I was satisfied with watching GT3 and watching the races (running events) of the cars. I left Tsukuba Circuit at about 3 pm and returned to Tokyo.
My husband also came to Tsukuba Circuit in another car (Fairlady Z), but my husband and I will return to different times with different actions.
Whenever I go to the circuit, I'm a little suspicious couple (laughs), who tend to go to Tsukuba and Fuji with two separate couples and act differently on the way back and forth.
That's why I left Tsukuba Circuit a little earlier.
Due to traffic restrictions on the Metropolitan Expressway, traffic is closed at once
On the way back, I ran smoothly at high speed, and from the time I finally entered the Metropolitan Expressway, the number of police vehicles gradually increased, police motorcycles were waiting in quite a few places, and I was ready to dispatch.
I thought, "Ah, Trump is coming to Japan, so the Metropolitan Expressway is on the alert." ..
My husband, who was still at Tsukuba Circuit, sent me this image on LINE. "Most of them seemed to be closed, but was it okay?" ↓
That is right. At that time, it seems that President Trump of the United States, who had just come to Japan, was moving to the Ryogoku Kokugikan around the time I ran on the Metropolitan Expressway, and during that time the restrictions were imposed on the Metropolitan Expressway all at once. It takes and is closed to traffic.
As I learned later, the Metropolitan Police Department announced the day when the road would be closed and the place where the regulation would be applied.
At this time, I went to the Metropolitan Expressway without thinking about anything, but by chance, it seems that I was running as much as the last buttocks that are regulated, and I am super lucky 1 I was able to run through without getting caught in the regulations. It was good ^^
However, when I went out to the general road from there, there were just a lot of police people. Gates (what is it?) Were installed everywhere.
Do you understand this? All the yellow circles are police people ↓
With this kind of feeling, I ran where there were police people as far as I could see. Although this place was far from the Kokugikan, it was unavoidable because it was close to the Palace Hotel where Mr. Trump was staying this time.
With so many "police people wondering if there are any suspicious people", when I run next to it with Porsche GT3 ..., that ..., because it has wings and the sound is noisy ... As a result, It seemed to stand out quite a bit.
I was so nervous because everyone was watching me so much that I might have seen almost all the police who passed each other (laughs).
It seems that the traffic restrictions on the Metropolitan Expressway were all lifted after 17:00, probably because Mr. Trump entered the National Sports Hall safely, and my husband who came back from the Tsukuba Circuit with a time lag was just right. It seems that he came back after the traffic regulation was lifted, which was also good ^^
↓ This is the situation of the Metropolitan Expressway that has just been released.
I wondered how fun it would be to be able to run on the Metropolitan Expressway, where all the road closures were lifted at once.
Even so, I think that if I was a little late to get on the Metropolitan Expressway, I might have been stuck with this traffic regulation, so I was more concerned about the road conditions in advance until Mr. Trump returned to Japan. The next morning of this day, I started by "confirming Mr. Trump's daily schedule".
As I wrote on Twitter, when I looked it up, Mr. Trump's plan for the day was "Palace Hotel-> Imperial Palace-> Guest House", so stay away from that area! I ran from the morning with that in mind, and I felt very good.
and. After that, I was completely out of my mind to do various things and "check the traffic situation". When I was running comfortably at 911 without thinking about anything, the road that was not usually crowded suddenly stopped. It doesn't work for a while.
When I thought, "What? What happened?" that? Yeah? Perhaps what you see on the left is the Imperial Palace?
And what you see on your right in front of you right now is ... what if ... Palace Hotel?
Yeah yeah. I was running "the road between the Imperial Palace and the Palace Hotel" completely unknowingly. Really, this is too weak (laughs).
From the morning, I completely researched "Keep away from the Palace Hotel, the Imperial Palace and the Guest House today!", But a few hours later I completely forgot, and the one running was "Between the Palace Hotel and the Imperial Palace." ".
I don't have any medicine to put on anymore (laughs).
