One of the 1st international visitors we hosted for a Team Orange Drift School Package were a couple of great guys from Singapore – Alan and Jason. As they promised back then, they have soon returned…. and this time they brought a load of friends. Alan and Jason this time opted to rent a car from us and practice what they had learned on their last visit, meantime 4 of the group took a Team Orange Drift School Package.
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 Team Orange star Naoto Suenaga posing with our new English version Flyer that we were handing out a while ago at Tokyo Auto Salon. Hes also sporting the new Team Orange jacket (Available to purchase at K-Style!)
A little while ago, 2 of the members of Osaka Drift outfit “Team Burst” visited the Team Orange guys here in Ebisu. Most famous of the duo who came up is this man, D1 GP Driver and D1SL 2009 Champion Naoki Nakamura.
No this isn’t some strange engine swap…. Harley is the driver. He is one of many visitors who have braved Ebisu’s winter weather for a chance to get some one on one tuition from a Genuine Japanese D1 Driver, as part of a Team Orange School Package.
Back at the last round of D1 SL at Tsukuba there was a stand with a Dyno in the pits so Naoto Suenaga grabbed the chance to see what power his 2008 D1 SL Championship winning S13 Silvia was delivering to the wheels.
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.
