We are staing in the equivalent of say, Broadmeadows in relation to Melbourne - or Liverpool to Sydney, its about a 30min train ride to the centre of tokyo, and the trains are extrememly efficient!ok, off to get some ramen for lunch - sayonara!

We had a chat to a few of the drifters who were very impressed at "Gaijins" knowledge of the Japanese tuning parts they used, and our interest in their cars and drifting techniques. We befriended a young drifter - Koda-san - who owns a very neat Toyota Chaser, running a 1JZ 2.5L with Blitz and Greddy hardware.Again, everyday we are just loving this place more and more, tomorow we will be going to another circuit called Honju, for a drift day Sorry about no pics, but I have about 250+ photos just from Tokyo Auto Salon, and haven't had a chance to go through them all! If I get a quiet night, I'll upload a fewCheers,Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
