DMR WIN'S JAPAN is rebuilding its layout around its longest straight
The Chiba circuit's channel posted an upcoming layout change and billed the course as having the world's longest straight. Here is what the video confirms, and what drivers planning a weekend run still need to ask.
Chiba
The announcement, in the title bar
The news is in the video's own title: a layout change is coming, and the circuit is described as having 世界一長いストレート — the world's longest straight. That is the shop's framing of its own course, posted on its own channel, and it is the only place in the material where the claim appears.
The clip went up on 5 October 2026 from the channel listed as DMR Mikasu-Works, the circuit's official RC drift channel. At the time the figures were pulled it showed 901 views, 20 likes and one comment. You can watch the layout-change video on YouTube.

What the video settles, and what it leaves open
What is confirmed from the posting: DMR WIN'S JAPAN is a large circuit described by its operators as a ラジドリ+α venue, it sits at 439-1 Minami-Tamatsukuri, Tako, Katori District, Chiba, and it runs on weekends and public holidays from 10:00 to 0:00. The circuit keeps its own site.
What is not in the posting: the straight's measured length, the date the new layout takes effect, the surface the course runs on, and whether the venue mandates a spec tyre. None of those are stated, so none of them are reported here. A driver deciding between a Saturday and the following weekend would need the shop's own follow-up or a direct message to the circuit.
The "world's longest straight" line also has no second source in the material. Until one exists, it is best read as the circuit describing its own build, not a verified record.
Setup questions
Why drivers care about one straight
A long straight changes the questions a 1/10 RWD car's setup has to answer, because for a stretch of the lap the car is doing one thing for an unusually long time before it has to transition.
The variables drivers typically weigh on a layout like this are gearing — the pinion and spur combination that sets the FDR — and how the straight feeds the corner at its end: entry point, initiation, and how much angle the lead car is willing to carry down a long run. In tandem, a long straight also stretches out the pacing problem, because the chase car has more distance in which to close or lose proximity before the next transition arrives.
None of that is specific to DMR WIN'S JAPAN yet. The video announces the change rather than walking through a finished layout, and it does not publish gearing advice, a recommended tyre or a diagram of the new course. Any setup claim about this specific straight should wait for the circuit's own follow-up or for drivers posting runs on it.
The parts side of the same channel
The same description lists DMR's own front knuckles in two versions, a normal type and a high-upper type, sold through the Mikasu-Works online shop. The listings are the normal type front knuckle and the high-upper type front knuckle, both on the Mikasu-Works shop.
The description does not state prices, chassis compatibility or what the high-upper geometry changes relative to the normal type, so those are open questions for the product pages themselves rather than things the video answers. Reported here as a sourced fact about what the circuit's operators sell, not as a recommendation.
The channel also runs a membership tier, linked from the same description, and the video credits its music as original.
