Kazuho Takahashi

Kazuho Takahashi (高橋 一穂) is a Japanese businessman and semi-retired amateur racing driver. He is the CEO, president and founder of VT Holdings and Honda Cars Tokai, a chain of Honda dealerships found across Aichi Prefecture.

Racing career
Takahashi's first known form of racing was in 1994 in the Tokachi 24 Hours; he would race intermittently in that series, last competing in that series in 2001. Takahashi also competed in two editions of the Suzuka 1000 km as a privateer; it was around 1998 when he started Cars Tokai Dream28 as the racing arm of his family of dealerships.

Takahashi first competed in what was then known as the All Japan Grand Touring Car Championship in 2001; being a Honda-based team thanks to his dealerships he would drive a Honda NSX. Initially paired up with Hiroshi Kimura, for 2002 he would pair up with Akira Watanabe. The team switched from a Honda NSX to a Vemac RD320R in 2005, the series now being known as Super GT.

2006 would see Takahashi with a new teammate, Hiroki Katoh, and a new car, the Mooncraft Shiden. 2006 and 2007 were both strong years for the team, achieving wins and podiums; both years would have the team fighting for the Drivers's and Constructors's championships at the end of the year. Despite tying with other teams in points Cars Tokai Dream28 would lose both the 2006 and 2007 Drivers's Championships on countback, although they would win the 2007 Constructors's Championship.

Takahashi retired from full-time competition after the 2019 Super GT Series, but vowed to continue racing in other categories.
