You only get half the experience of the 8 Hours if you just follow the results. The heat of the paddock and the booths, that's the real thrill on the ground. Fans gathering even in the rain is proof of the trust Kawasaki has built up, I think.

Do they really ride the full 8 hours straight at the 8 Hours? Or do riders swap out...?

Exhibits and talk shows are nice, but wasn't the actual race interrupted way too much by rain?

Even with delays, the atmosphere on site is amazing, you won't know until you go.

Not even watching the race and just browsing GP Square's booths eating up a whole day is part of the 8 Hours' charm.

Rain at the 8 Hours happens every year like this, it's practically Suzuka's signature at this point.

Even in the rain the Kawasaki booth was packed, limited merch sold out instantly.

Really wish scalpers wouldn't snatch up all the limited merch.
