SUNRISE AT EBISU: Higashi Course, “Drift Bible” Corner

By in 02-02-2012 2:19 am

What’s normally listed as simply “Corner 7”, and made famous in Keiichi Tsuchiya’s “Drift Bible” (called “Super Drift Technique” in Japan) it’s also known as “Restaurant Corner” because you can see it while eating your lunch in the restaurant. It’s also known as “Benjo Corner” or “Toilet Corner”, because if you open the window of the western-style toilet next to the restaurant, you can watch people drifting while you do your business.

PHOTOS OF THE YEAR 2011: The predictions were true

By in 28-01-2012 3:28 am

January’s almost over, but I thought I’d take a quick look at the server stats and see which photos were the top 25 most downloaded in 2011. A 2011 Noriyaro zeitgeist, if you will.

このリストは「２０１１年のサーバから一番ダウンロードされたの写真」です。意味は”人気”かな。

#25

I just realised I haven’t posted any other photos from this Porsche-drifting day! Yep, that’s Hibino. More coming soon…

EAST VS WEST: Battle of directors, Laputka and Kuzmichev

By in 18-01-2012 12:27 pm

Let’s revisit one of the greatest political rivalries this world has ever seen. The United States of America vs The Russian Federation. However, instead of intercontinental ballistic missiles, let’s instead make use of Nissan missiles!

First, we have a collection of bearded and unbearded gentlemen, the “Bloodmasters”, in New Jersey, directed by Andy Laputka.

Next, we have Tvardovskiy and Felix from the Evil Empire drifting team, directed by Alexander Kuzmichev from Санкт-Петербург.

Well, what did you think? Who wins this one?

In the spirit of friendship, let’s end it with seeing Felix travel to Japan and enter (and win) the G1GP at Ebisu Circuit.

I love the bit where he explains why he was listening to Tchaikovski during the battles.
