Here are a couple of videos of the race. Video was from Nissan team so it is more Nissan focus, I am sure more videos will be posted from Lexus team soon.

the GT500 and GT300 cars run together, which is what makes it interesting.

Well, a Toyota Prius GT300 took pole for that class but retired with some mechanical issue. GT300 features FIA GT3 and JAF GT300 cars (Prius, CR-Z, BRZ).
