Not a whole lot of updates recently eh?
Here’s what I’ll be attempting to do during this Golden Week public holiday period.
I’m heading up to Ebisu Circuit today, and I’ll probably be stopping off at Nikko Circuit on the way to have a look at the MSC competition being held there.
Friday is the G1 Grand Prix drift competition for foreigners only, this time being held on South Course at Ebisu Circuit. Here’s a link to the video from last Autumn’s event.
Saturday and Sunday is Drift Matsuri!
There may be something happening on Monday too, but we’ll see how things go.
Of course, I’ll be taking a camera along to all of this.

You might have noticed that I haven’t really been doing much driving recently.
I hope to correct this.

I was at the workshop yesterday doing some stuff to the Mark II. Shino was there too, repairing the front end of her 86, which has taken a couple of hits recently.
At one point, Shino took a break from working on her AE86 and walked over with a big can of Mountain Dew for me from the vending machine outside.
I couldn’t help but notice the can of peach drink she had bought for herself.

I received a call from Free Craft’s Tanaka-san last week saying that he had just finished the exterior of a new drift car he was working on. He wanted some photos of it “before the bodywork gets all destroyed”.

Want to know how not to make an 70 metre long skid mark without meaning to?
Just follow these simple steps.
Don’t drive around at two in the morning. Don’t find a bit of road that has no other cars, oncoming traffic, parked cars or pedestrians. Don’t give the speedometer a bit of a workout.
