Quotes

“Before I challenged myself as a racing model, I had many concerns. In fact, I took on this challenge after about two years of contemplation. When I didn’t know much about racing models, I think the somewhat negative image that was prevalent in society held me back. It was like I only had somewhat negative thoughts when I asked myself, ‘Is this a good choice for me?'”

“When I got out of the race car and thought about it, the speed of the race car, the smell of the rubber burning on the tires, the heat, all these elements felt fatally attractive. In addition, I think I got really hooked when I heard the sound of the Cadillac 6000 class and ASA GT class race cars right there.”

“I want to be a model who can be a good example to others and also improve the image of the racing model profession. I still have a long way to go, but I believe that if I keep trying, I’ll get good results.”
