Summer Drift Matsuri


I know I kinda promised a full cover of the event. But tbh, we enjoyed it way too much so here is just a little one.

We arrived Saturday morning and keept basically at Minami the whole weekend. Just hitted Nishi a couple of times and of course had a great Night run as well. Until my lights stopped working.... As they say, Ebisu kills cars :) It was nice to see some familiar faces and I hope to see some more event pics in other threads.

At left you see my friends pretty beaten down AE86 Levin. Which went through a lot over the years. But trust me it still runs like hell!


Other than me he managed the Minami jump entry a lot of times!


That S14 was twin turboed SR20. Sick one. And I think a lot of cars that weekend proofed that SR20's are great engines.


That one reminded me of my Soarer. Except his one was way louder and faster than mine.


Saturday afternoon Erwin arrived and I think when he entered the track with his clean R32, I wasn't the only one thinking "is is he sure about this?".
I think we all saw the R32 runs well but is slightly underpowered for the rough surface and basely drifting in general. But as you can see, we had some fun! All over sunday we planted Erwin in several cars not to ruin his Skyline. Which was then the "grap fuel, food, etc. car". Thx again Erwin!


Here is basically the only nice shot of myself! :) Tandem Entry with one of my guys! Being followed by a full-blown (that means upgraded) 1jz cresta roulant g is scary and sick at the same time!


Here is a shot of Erwin in that beast! He catched that btw!


So keeping this as a car update as well. A couple of weeks ago, with some used parts form MACKAY's guys the SR20 got DET'd. And surprisingly I installed everything that well, nothing blew or fell of during those two days. Well, except tires! :)

Now I am already in Osaka, thanks to Erwin, who gave me a ride! We're all chilling here at a late night bbq.

So that's it for now.
To spoiler a bit; I missed Fridays EDC as I went on a shatokan meeting that evening. I get you pictures soon. And During the week you might get bored of a lot of S15 footage.

Thx again for watching and reading!

Keep it sideways stupid!
