Katsutomo Kaneishi is a professional racing driver who competed in Super GT, Japan's national multiclass endurance championship. He raced the GT500 class, which runs purpose-built prototypes from Toyota, Honda and Nissan. His racing career on record spans two seasons, from 2008 to 2009, and he competed for Real Racing, the team he formed in 2007.[1]
Kaneishi made nine starts across 2008 and 2009, finishing 17th in the championship standings in his final season. Racing in a field that mixed semi-professionals with established champions, he regularly opposed drivers of considerably higher standing, including André Lotterer, a multiple World Endurance Championship and Super GT champion, and Ronnie Quintarelli, a four-time Super GT GT500 champion. Kaneishi finished ahead of Lotterer on two occasions and ahead of Benoît Tréluyer, the 2008 Super GT GT500 champion, three times; against Quintarelli, who would go on to dominate the category in the following years, he proved closely matched.[2]
