In this long winter we cant let the snow stop all the fun.  Heres Suenaga testing out our Powervehicles S13 Silvia from our stock.  The snap is on Ebisu’s School Course.  The far side corner gets shade from the sun meaning this corner was still covered in snow, making for a challenge!

Here’s a quick snap of Robert from the US in action in our Rental Sil80 whilst he took part in his Team Orange Drift School Day.  Robert done excellently especially considering he had never driven a Right Hand Drive car before, and we were all so impressed how quickly he adapted.

Saw this at the port the other day.  What a great way to save on shipping costs.  Don’t think it will work with drift cars some how…. unless they are “missiles”!

We Managed to squeeze 36 well used tyres into the back of our little Stepwagon after Matsuri.  Not much life left in any of those!

Here’s Video 1 of 2 from Luke of “We are Drift”promoting his upcoming DVD.  In this clip there’s some coverage of the last Drift Matsuri, inc some nice wall taps from Ben (Oz) and Paul (Holland).  There was more than a bit of paint left at the circuit over that weekend…. Naoto Suenaga can also be seen posing for the camera as normal in one clip and there some action featuring Daigo Saito and Fellow D1 Divisional competitor Mizuno tearing around the Minami course in their “Missile” Cars….. Oh happy memories of last year.

This snap is taken from the parking lot for the Touge Course here at Ebisu Circuit.  This is the 1st Hairpin on the Higashi course.  The back drop looks right over the valley and produces some great views, depending on the weather.
