Hi all,
Just got back from Kyosei Driving Land in Aichi Pref., which is (beleive it or not) a driving school for learners. But the place is bloody amazing and huge. We had 6 different circuits laid out. One 3rd gear course for experts, then some small circuits for beginners. My mate Yuji was in the newbie area as it's his first time drifting. He films the DVD's for Kids Heart and their GP drift comps, but he himself had only ever driven grip before.
I spent most of my day blagging go's in peoples cars (Just like UK ) But my main car was a JZX90 Cresta. Myself and Tezuka (D1 Driver) had some fun twinning both in JZX90, but most of the day I was giving passenger rides to Japanese girls who were amazed that a foreigner was kicking their boyfriends asses haha Made some friends which was cool and got some new contacts for used dori cars.
Anyway, tons of cars came out. Mainly Silvias, Skyline's and JZX's. Brilliant day. Thanks to the boss (Kids Heart) for inviting me and treating me like a VIP. Didn't change one wheel myself
Roll on next week for more dori action at Nikko.
Enjoy the pics. The rest are at:

Cant remember the full name, but they're called Barrels.
Or as I prefer to call them... Dukes of Hazard wheels
