Today, at the magnificent Fuji Speedway hotel museum, Larry Chen embarks on a journey through automotive history, surrounded by a stunning array of iconic cars. From the lobby's wall adorned with a plethora of car parts to the display of a Toyota with colossal turbos, Larry's enthusiasm is palpable. He is particularly drawn to a beautifully restored car featuring a striking Mount Fuji painting on its hood, showcasing a perfect blend of preservation and elegance.

Venturing further into the museum, Larry encounters a diverse range of vehicles, including a nostalgic Honda F1 car and a rare Renault 5 Turbo. The presence of a NASCAR Cup car from 2008 and the legendary Lancia Delta S4 Group B rally car adds a thrilling dimension to the collection. The museum's display of the Toyota GT1 and the iconic Mazda 787B, the first Japanese car to conquer the 24 Hours of Le Mans, leaves Larry in awe of their racing heritage.

As Larry explores the street car exhibit, he is captivated by the sleek NXR and the timeless N1 NSX, each embodying a unique charm. The sight of a replica 1966 2000 GT race car, devoid of its signature pop-up headlights, offers a glimpse into racing history. Reflecting on his personal connection with the R32 Group A GTR, Larry appreciates the simplicity and raw appeal of the Wedsport Corolla 11 race car, highlighting the evolution of motorsport over the years.

In conclusion, Larry emphasizes the museum's dynamic nature, with ever-changing exhibits that cater to every car enthusiast's passion. The meticulous attention to detail and the thoughtful curation of the collection make the Fuji Speedway hotel museum a must-visit destination for anyone with a love for automotive excellence.
