■HARC-PRO Racing Team principal :Shigeki Honda
I am very happy to participate in the 2024 season. The entry name will be changed to “SDG Team HARC-PRO.”.
In JRR, I would like Teppei to aim for victory with better results than in 2023, and if possible, his goal is to be in the top 3 in the rankings. I hope Yuki that he will aim his first winning and get the championship. Kanta is a new member, but he was a player who worked hard in Asian race when he was young. This will be his first time participating in the ST600, but I hope he will aim for a high ranking and not getting injured in his first year.
Regarding ARRC, Chihiro Ishii was running in the AP250 in 2023, but 18 year old Filipino rider Jacob will be participating in the race for the first time in place of Ishii. Yuki will be competing in the ASB1000 class with a double entry, aiming for the championship. Thank you all for your support.
