During the mid 90's, with GT racing having a huge resurgence in Europe and America, the Suzuka 1000KM became host to the BPR Global GT Series in 1994. The grid was mostly filled with cars from Europe while a few of Japans best would also compete in a new NGT class (while some would be classed under existing BPR classes).
One of these was the JLOC Corsa Diablo Jota that was entered in the 1996 race. The car was originally a 1994 Diablo SE30, built to commemorate Lamborghini's 30th Anniversary, but was one of 15 cars fitted with the Jota kit turning it into a racing car.
The car was owned by Ken Wolf and started racing across Japan in 1995 under the Terai Engineering name before running under JLOC Corsa in 1996, where it raced in the Suzuka 1000KM and it finished 28th, making it the slowest of all the GT1 cars that managed to finish the race.
