CW Notes:
The clockwise configuration at Spa Nishiura Motor Park flows through 1.561 kilometers featuring 11 turns across Japan's reconfigurable racing complex near Gamagori, Aichi, opened in 2007 with certification by the Japanese Automobile Federation and Japan Motorcycle Sports Association. Running clockwise emphasizes the circuit's 426-meter straight and the unique bridge section that distinguishes this facility from typical Japanese circuits, with the narrow site creating tight technical sections that reward precision over power. The layout's elevation changes and reconfigurable nature allow compatible use by motorcycles, cars, and karts, reflecting modern multi-use facility design philosophy serving Japan's diverse motorsport community.
Operating in the clockwise direction showcases Spa Nishiura's deliberate compact design philosophy where 11 corners pack technical variety into a relatively short 1.561-kilometer lap. The facility serves central Japan's motorsport enthusiasts with easy access from Nagoya and surrounding Chubu region cities, positioning it as a popular venue for track days, driving schools, and club racing events. Japan's seasonal climate creates distinct operating windows with hot humid summers and cool winters, though the facility's location in Aichi Prefecture provides more moderate conditions than northern Japanese circuits. The clockwise flow has established itself as the standard direction since the 2007 opening, with the compact layout creating high lap frequency where drivers complete multiple laps per session, allowing rapid skill progression and setup refinement across the technical 11-turn challenge.
