SHINO KOUBA SOUKOUKAI 2009: Nikko Circuit, Part II
January 10, 2010 9:00 amA while ago, Noriyaro reader Jon said in the comments section “That’s why I tell people, the moment you take your car onto the track, consider it totaled. It will save you some tears later.”
Still though, that was a damn pretty Soarer.
Wow, it’s not much better from this angle.
OK, let’s move on from that horrible image. Here are some drift girls.
Daigo Saito’s new JZX90 Mark II practice car still looks nice and neat. I wonder how long for though?
All business.
How many guys are practicing on 275 19s though?
To clear the low offset of the front wheels, the top of the fenders have been unscrewed and re-attached a bit further out.
Nice panel gap. At least it actually has fenders, unlike some of his previous cars.
Japan Craft’s Tanaka-san works out the angles of missile drifting.
Instead of drifting at Nikko, my car only made it half-way on the freeway and needed a tow home. More about this when I know what’s wrong.

Wow. Must be nice to have a practice car that you can run Prodrive wheels on…
Good luck, Alexi. Can’t wait for the next batch of pics with the beast in action.
I hope you get your car fixed soon. I want to see more action pictures of it. I also want to see Saito drifting on 19s
19’s! wild
nice camry
not much better ?! The second picture brought the tears ! The third was a nice consolation though Alexi, Thank you.
Bummer about the chaser pooping out on you, hopefully nothing too ridiculous to fix. that soarer was definitely in a bad way though :O
was it that low before it crashed?
Punishment for abandoning the Skyline?
Hope it’s nothing too serious.
Oh…poor Soarer. I bet it was a blast right up until those last couple of minutes, though.
Camry?
hey i am on 19 .. its really expensive and dumb haha really i am on 19s too ..
who said that the drift girls was a better site then the car .. yikes ..
i heart daigo and the fact that he is a 100% drift .. and nothing more ..
yeah that soarer looked tough. i love that model.
love the guard mod, haha.
@BlueSlug
Yeah. Being too low at Nikko can cause problems if you’re not used to how the car reacts over the drops offs, especially on the high-speed corner, where this guy crashed.
ona in the blue jacket YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My Soarer looks just like that right now. Just not black
That was probably one of the best looking Soarers…
Good to know you figured out what’s wrong with the 100 now 🙂
Hey Alexi maybe there was not enough or perhaps too much oil in it 😉
I hope its better now
