Early career

Move to Japan
In 1992, he returned to Japan, competing in the All Japan Formula 3000 Championship for the Stellar International racing team, and also drove their BMW M3 car in the All Japan Touring Car Championship. He competed in the same environment until 1997, and also competed in the early years of the Formula Nippon championship, started in 1996. He therefore became a well-known name for Japanese race fans.
In 1997, his last year as a professional racecar driver, he also raced at the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the GTC Racing team (Gulf Team Davidoff) and drove a McLaren F1 GTR.
After his racing driver career
In 1998, he drove a Jordan Grand Prix Formula One car down the Hangar Straight of Silverstone Circuit in a drag race, competing against a Ferrari F40 road car, as a feature for a Jeremy Clarkson video title "the most outrageous DVD in the world...ever!" He has raced Jordan Grand Prix cars on various other occasions, including again at Silverstone Circuit in 2001. He managed racing driver Takuma Sato from 2001 until 2009.
