Managing Director Shigeo Takebayashi Born 1952. At the beginning he came here as an engineer from a large engineering firm, but at the beginning everyone was an engineer, and there was no one to do the jobs that had to be done to keep the company running. Gradually these jobs start getting routed to Takebayashi. At first he kept complaining that he was an engineer, but over time even drops of water carve stone. He gradually starts showing his natural talent for the job, and now he is top of general affairs and is the main pillar which keeps this company up. The first car he drove was a lightweight Honda truck. The first race he went to was at Suzuka during his junior high school years, where he heard the roar of the Toyota 7s. The most memorable car was the "Caspita testbed" on which he experienced a racing engines quick revs and high acceleration. Unseen, he is a major force that supports Dome. |
