The track is fairly compact, stretching a mere 2,045m, but the layout is exceptionally challenging, mixing a variety of long sweepers with tight corners. Since it opened in 1970, Tsukuba has hosted many big events such as the All-Japan Touring Car Championships and has become a benchmark for rating the performance of automobiles by the media.

- Nissan GT-R Cup (Beginner League) – This one-make race features the GT-R, Nissan’s menacing high-performance sports coupe.
- Red Bull X-Junior Series (Amateur League) – This one-make race is an entry-level event with the Red Bull X Series, X2014 Jr.
- All-Japan GT Car Championships (Professional League) – This Group 2 category event includes pure-bred race machines based on road-going production cars.
4. More additional features will be added.
