TYPE-R FINAL BATTLE: Hot Version #106 at Maze Circuit, Part IIPosted by Alexi in Random その他, tags: 180SX, Best Motoring, Honda, Hot Version, Integra, Maze Circuit, NSX, Type-R
Even though I was working on the Honda Type-R part of this particular Hot Version shoot, that didn’t stop me from having a look at some of the other cars that were there. This Gallery 180SX was there for a segment about drifting techniques, hosted by Nobuteru Taniguchi.

This is a shiny and new FD2 Civic Type-R. I was given the job of driving it from the Hot Version production offices in Tokyo to the crew’s hotel all the way over in Niigata for the latest video shoot. The things we do.

THIS TIME FOR SURE: Signing up for the 1JZ MeetingPosted by Alexi in Alexi アレクシ, tags: 1JZ Meeting, ST Garage
One-make events are generally a lot of fun, and attending the recent AE86 day at Fuji Speedway was awesome, but since it was a car that I neither own, nor have owned in the past, I was missing out on that little extra edge that the event provided. Since my own car is a JZX100, the event to attend is the annual 1JZ Meeting held at Fuji Speedway Drift Course by four-door pro shop, ST Garage. I thought I’d posted up all of the the pics from a previous 1JZ Meeting that I attended back in 2007, but I’ve only put up a few so far, like this one and this one and this one. As you can see, there’s some interesting stuff going on there. When I bought the Mark II last year, the event had already been sold out for a long time, which annoyed me a bit and I didn’t actually end up going, even to watch. This year, I decided that the car would be going out there on the track no matter what. The problem was that entries to the event always sell out within a few hours of opening. To avoid any kind of mess-ups with faxing my entry through and bank deposits, I decided to drive down to ST Garage instead and enter directly.

PIT IN: Taking a little break from the actionPosted by Alexi in Random その他, tags: Keiichi Tsuchiya
You might have noticed a lack of regular posts recently. I’m currently taking quick Tsuchiya-style break back home in Australia. I’ll be back in Japan later this week. 私は今土屋さんみたいオーストラリアにちょっと休憩中です。新しい記事のは、少々お待ち下さい！
