In the previous race, the Fuji 300 (I think in December 71) the GT-R was up for a historic 50th straight win in a row and mechanical troubles meant that a Mazda RX-3 broke the 49-race Skyline winning streak and got the victory instead. So this race victory a couple of mths later was sweet payback for Nissan. Now the footage of THAT December race is good viewing :) 1972 to be exact
