Japanese cars' first Safari Rally win remembered

Original: 今日は何の日

Japanese motoring media are revisiting 2 November as the anniversary of Nissan's Bluebird 1300SS winning the Safari Rally in Kenya in 1966, the first overall victory for a Japanese car in the event. The feat is being celebrated as a landmark in Japan's rise in international motorsport, with writers recalling how the achievement helped establish Japanese manufacturers' reputation for durability abroad.

Why now: A Japanese motoring outlet's daily 'this day in history' feature marking the anniversary of the 1966 win has drawn attention.
