You might have seen the AE85 I picked up recently in one of the posts below this one. Check out the daily-driver that belongs to the guy I purchased it from!

This film shot of the Noriyaro AE85kai was taken by Keisuke Nagashima from 86fighters when he came out to the AE86 festival at Sports Land Yamanashi a couple of months ago.
I have a fairly big video about this car coming up soon, so look forward to that!
4 CommentsRemember the Buzz Killers video from last week? The guy in the AE86, Takuya Takahashi, is back again in his other AE86 (yep, he has more than one!) making mincemeat of the corners at Tsukuba Circuit.
1 CommentEnjoy some on-board video with Toshiyuki Yanai, an old-school AE86 touge drifter from Yamanashi-ken on the very touge-like Sports Land Yamanashi.
スポーツランド山梨は峠とそっくり!これは谷内さのハチロクドリフトです。
7 CommentsNikko Circuit’s heavily cambered track edges can make for some fun drifting if you mess around with them. While it’s not something that most drivers normally do, standing near the final corner and egging them on does seem to help a bit. Here’s a few pics from a TGS track day earlier this year.
First up are Funky Racing’s Subleader and Gojappe.
12 CommentsHere’s another shaky video I shot at the 86 Style event at Fuji Speedway a little while ago. I think 150 was the official number of cars in the parade run, led by Keiichi Tsuchiya in his personal Trueno.
Combined with the cars seen over in the static display, this was an amazing event for any AE86 or 86 fan to visit. If you’d like to visit it, plan a trip to Japan around the 6th of August next year! I heard from the Managing Director of Fuji Speedway himself that there’s going to be more of these.
Comments Off on LOTS AND LOTS OF 86: Fuji Speedway parade run at 86 StyleSo, did we all have a good 8/6 day?
First, let me apologise for the shakiness, terrible sound, and terrible picture. There is an amazing amount of AE86 and 86 related stuff in here though, so it’s well worth a watch if you’re a fan. I also have some more video that will probably blow your mind from its scale, so look forward to that as well.
富士スピードウエイの86スタイルのピットウォークのビデオを撮りました。ふるふるカメラを申し訳ないです!
If you were gritting your teeth watching this and swearing that I wasn’t showing anything for long enough, I have some good news directly from the Managing Director of Fuji Speedway. They’re planning on running another one of these events next year, and it’s only going to get bigger, so put in for your work leave right now!

I did a bit of “dangerous cameramanning” on the first corner at Ebisu’s Kita Course at the last Drift Matsuri. It’s fun when you get these kinds of reactions from drivers.
3 CommentsWhat are the things that come to mind when you think of the Bee☆R workshop? Skyline, Nissan and GT-R are probably the first three, so the owner of this car may come as a surprise.
