The Hatsune Miku GT Project is a motorsport project with the concept, “a racing team run by fans”. First launched in 2008 by GOODSMILE RACING, the project has been participating in the SUPER GT GT300 class series, the greatest motorsport race in Japan. Its trademark is a machine with a Hatsune Miku Racing Ver. design. Not only is it wildly popular with an eye-catching vehicle design, it has also won many races including taking the series championship three times in 2011, 2014, and 2017 respectively. It is now one of the most prominent teams in the SUPER GT series and one of the best teams of the race both in name and in reality.

The biggest distinctive feature of the project is that it works on a Personal Sponsor System which enables each fan to directly support the team. Every year, the team races with the support of Personal Sponsors from all over the world. A major factor that attracts many fans is the unique ways of interactions between the team and its fans which are considered one-of-a-kind in the industry. These include having the team members themselves share the race atmosphere to fans online, live streams and broadcasts before the races, and inviting fans to official celebration parties and end-of-year parties.

Hatsune Miku is a vocaloid software developed by Crypton Future Media, Inc. which allows anyone to make the character sing by inputting written lyrics and melody into the software. Many creators used Hatsune Miku to produce music and subsequently uploaded them online, causing her instant rise to fame. She has also garnered attention as a character and today, holds concerts as a virtual singer besides being active in other arenas and while doing so, is rapidly gaining popularity all over the world.

To allow as many fans as possible to participate and support the team, GOODSMILE RACING uses a Personal Sponsor System which enables any individual to support the team no matter how small their contribution. It started in 2008 and the team receives the support of many Personal Sponsors every year. Apart from manufacturing costs, all costs fall under team operational costs so the fans’ support counts a lot for the team. Registered Personal Sponsors are ranked and displayed in the list of sponsors online and at race venues on race weeks.

These are points which can be added to your sponsored amount to the team. When you purchase items which come with GSR coupons, you will receive a serial number. By entering this code into the dedicated page, sponsors who are already registered will receive additional points, whereas first-timers can register as new sponsors when entering the code. According to the number of additional points, you can increase your sponsor ranking from green to gold and even beyond that. Annual rankings will be reset on November 30th which is the last race day of the year.
