Goto and Yokomo part ways

Leading Japanese Electric Touring Car racer Souta Goto is departing Yokomo with the news that his contract will expire at the end of this month.  Claiming the All Japan Touring Car Championship and representing the manufacturer on the international stage, most recent of which was competing at IFMAR World Championship in Italy, Goto joined Yokomo in 2015.  Announcing the news, Goto said, “At the end of December 2022 I will be terminating my driver contract with Mr. Yokomo, Ltd.  Yokomo has given me valuable experience for 7 years and 3 months since joining the team.  Ever since I joined the team, I was able to experience things that I couldn’t achieve on my own, winning the JMRCA All-Japan Championship, challenging the IFMAR World Championship, and winning the SPEED KING TOUR series title.  I’m beyond thankful to Yokomo Co., Ltd. for supporting my immature self.  And I would like to express my gratitude again to Mr. Fujii, the former president, who invited Team Yokomo at the time.  I will continue to work hard in the radio-containing industry to achieve a big goal, so I ask for your continued support.
