Dorifuto-Zoku!

I found this video from a recently featured news segment about street drifting in Japan. Interesting to see how the media feels about the sport we love so much.

Coverage: USDM Jam ver. 9.0 Part I

This past weekend was USDM Jam in Mie, Japan. I almost didn’t get coverage from this event, but luckily my friend & photographer Masaki Hamashima was able to get the time off of work to make the 2+ hour drive from Osaka to Mie. Major thanks, Masaki!

Are we in the right place?

USDM Jam ver. 9.0!

This weekend, one of the most anticipated meets of the year in Japan takes place – USDM Jam! I’m currently working on locking down a photographer to cover the event for me (looking good, so far) so I should have coverage posted by Sunday if everything works out.

Check back soon!

I’m sure most, if not, all of you have seen the coverage from Tokyo Auto Salon this year & noticed one particular GT-R that was getting a lot of attention..

This GT-R isn’t all show…

The GT-R definitely looks HUGE on the track in comparison to other cars, but let’s face it, it’s still bad ass.

Tokyo Auto Salon – Drifting FR-S

The release of the production model Scion FR-S has stirred up a lot of commotion recently. Even though it’s not available to the public yet, aftermarket giants like HKS and Falken have already built 2 FR-S’s to compete in D1GP in Japan. Nobuteru Taniguchi will pilot the HKS car, while Tetsuya Hibino pilots the Falken car.

D1GP, hurry up & come back to the US!

This is too awesome.

My buddy over at JDM EGO posted this desktop calendar on his Facebook page. I just HAD to have one, so he told me where to get it & ordered one for myself.

It even comes with a clear stand to protect the pages. Clever! Can’t wait to take it to work on Monday!

I’m sure you’ve all seen this, but if you haven’t…
