Classic Japan Rally 2023 YOKOHAMA Y164

Concept

As a satellite event of "Hama-Fes Y164", a port opening memorial event
which conveys the history of the opening of Yokohama Port,
classic cars from the 1920s to 1973 gather on Yokohama Motomachi Shopping Street
and this approximately 500 km classic car rally over three days starts.
The rally goes around exotic towns in Yokohama, Yokohama Chinatown, Nihon Odori and Minatomirai,
then goes through Hakone, where fresh green leaves will be shining in the sun,
and Gotemba to the Fuji Speedway Hotel.
We drive through beautiful winding roads in Fuefuki, Kai, and Fruit Line Road
with views of Mt. Fuji and vineyards and compete PC competitions at Fuji Speedway.
At the end of the day, we relax and relieve our tired body from the two days at the Fuji Speedway Hotel.
On the final day, we drive through Gotemba, Hakone and the Shonan area,
heading to the finish line on Yokohama Motomachi Shopping Street.
Participants will be greeted with cheers from spectators and applauded for their good fight for three days.

About "Model Year Coefficient" and "Classified" In Classic Japan Rally 2023 YOKOHAMA Y164, the "Model Year Coefficient" is applied to the overall results.
