I read this article a few days ago, and I have a couple of bones to pick with it. For one, the Europeans and Brits/Scots have been importing them through outfits like JM for years and years. It’s not like America’s the only country that wants them, though definitely, the bro-want is strong. There are import companies…

I would like to venture that driving sucks everywhere. It sucks where I live, and I don’t even live in a big city; suburban sprawl, poor motorists, poorly maintained roads, congestion, lack of visibility, poorly designed road layouts, etc. I hate driving on a day to day basis. Does that sound strange for a Jalop?…

#nightfever!

Another awesome article! Ah, really envious, that scenery is gorgeous. I have a local mountain pass we go out to for some fun driving but it’s not as narrow, nor as sharp-you-need-to-be-on-your-game as Haruna or the other ‘famed’ passes, or even the lesser known ones (like near my aunt and uncle’s place).

About time Mr. R has done one of these. I’m fortunate enough to have a good friend who has a very nice, 417whp FD that’s been converted to just single turbo. Why? Because heat. It’s one of my favorite cars, period, the end. The way it accelerates, the grip, the handling, and the sound. It’s just an incredible piece of…

Did anyone edit or proofread this? O_o

I HATE that ramp’s sign. I’ve been there numerous times. It sucks.

Button has categorically the worst luck on the grid. On those occasions when his luck isn’t like something straight out of a bad romantic comedy manga, he’s brilliant, can can go from last to first, multiple-title-holding champions be-damned. He’s a great racer, and a class act.

Always the truth, no?

Awesome! I have a friend who just graduated with a degree in Chem E. and just landed her first job. I’m hoping to go back and finish school and graduate from the same faculty (albeit in electrical engineering). Women engineers, assemble? Unite? Not wait for Nick Fury?

A million times this. As both a photographer and a woman who is into driving and working on cars it drives me absolutely insane. It’s lazy photography at best, a mockery at worst. What’s most depressing is that there are in fact, morons out there who takes these images at face value as reinforcement as to why ‘women…

mmmmyes?

You go sideways and have fun. That’s the objective. These grassroots level events aren’t a competition, or a race. Drtifting isn’t racing. And a lot of these cars are more properly set up than you’d believe.

There was a pretty rad S12 drifting in C-group.

LOL, that’s me standing in the bunker at the start, oh shit.

I did a whole write up on it with lots of photos! http://epic-downfarce.kinja.com/east-coast-bas…

Another fun article. Also, I’ve said it before, but since you make mention if it, I love your avatar choice. :D

The Japanese having on-paper expectations that in no way synch up with the real world?

That never happens.

One of my friends failed twice. The whole thing being pretty ironic as most people I know with similar experience would agree that, on base, Japanese are not so great at this whole driving thing. A great anecdote…

Would buy. If only to say I had a Ferrari with over 100k on the clock. That’s kind of rad. I dunno, I think these cars are meant to be driven and I’m glad this one has been. Come on, gotta be a Jalop who’s going to step up!

Look forward to seeing you there!
