In recent years, the involvement of Itashas in real motorsport events has grown. Though most of them are amateur events, participation of Itashas in
races are increasing, and they usually receive much media coverage.
In 2008's Japan Rally Championship, Melonbooks, a famous dōjin shop, put a Honda City Itasha into the JN1(cars below 1400cc) class. They started
with 3 straight wins, and eventually finished as class Champion that year, claiming the first individual, as well as first overall Champion title in
Japan's motorsport event for Itashas.
In 2008 Super GT season, Studie GLAD Racing (a BMW tuning shop in Japan) team entered a Hatsune Miku-themed Z4 in the GT300 class, making Itasha's
debut in international events under FIA. Three months later, MOLA introduced a Kagamine Rin and Len-themed Nissan 350Z in the same series' final
race, which they finished sixth and claimed their driver and team's title in GT300 class.

I would rather say that's what happen when you're an anime and a car otaku.
Those design btw are the best sellers in Forzamotorsport 3 storefront.
I think the most disturbing is the seat.
