There was a chute for 3200m races (used for the Tenno Sho Autumn races), but when the race was shortened to 2000m, the 3200m chute was useless and is not in use as of today.

The course was renovated in 2007 (started in 2000), adding the world's largest video screen and upgrading a grandstand, named the Fuji View Stand, which in today is the main grandstand of the course. The Memorial 60 grandstand was also added. The high-definition video screen measured {{convert|218|ft|m}} wide by only {{convert|37|ft|m}} high at {{convert|8066|sqft|m2}}.
