indeed. young people theese days tent to forget hw much experience he has. I got bored of drift videos along time ago, unless its something special..

Has anyone seen a half hour movie clip where tsuchiya goes on some touge and drifts there with a levin. the car had modarate tuning imo but still he drifted consecutively uphill, downhill you name it. cool clip. from the '80.

That clip is from the 2004 AE86 N2 Special Run in Tsukuba. I also have the full videos of 2005 and 2006 events but they are in japanese only. The "unofficial" N2 race from 1998 can be found on the Best Motoring Video Special 42 (the other one of the AE86 specials). I've been looking for videos of the 1999-2003 events but haven't had any luck so far..

To help me a bit with building and setting up my own car, I made this;

heh, well you live in holland (or flatland as i like to call it Puh

). Those japanese roads are amazing simply because they are so well made and maintained. Our mountain roads have holes, battered-up asphalt, no lighting what so ever, no guardoh railoh, sand and dirt all over the place.. But ther roads just look like they wanna be ridden.

Yes Apolan caught the point, we have some very nice "touges" in cz, but most of them are short and as said, very badly maintained. we have some nice roads even here in Prague, but nothing longer than 500 meters. I know, there are beautiful rural roads everywhere, but one of the basic ingrediences for a "beutiful touge", a tall tall mountains, are missing Sad

btw NoHachi you were at Irohazaka? do you have any pics please Drool

I was in Japan, but I went to Aichi perfecture, which is the flattest region in the country Stupid

but hey, on the other hand, I was living next to rocky autos garage LOL
