We’ll be leaving Nagoya today, and heading for a small town known for it’s public baths and temples, named Nikko. Nagoya was nice… and certainly a lot more western in appearance than Kyoto and Osaka, with wide roads, real sidewalks, and even advertisements for a “New American Community” on the television. Not really what I’m looking to see in general… […]

Will I ever give up AE86? I had dinner with some boys last night. Real… race car boys… Elise drivers, hard tuned Honda drivers, guys who will embarrass you in an unmodified car… People I’ve known for years, but never been all that close to… just cause I’m anti-social. But… these guys… are smart enough to call me on all […]

Offers on the 86 this week… but… again I couldn’t pull the trigger. I haven’t even been watching InitialD or Best Motoring lately. So… imagine what could happen if I did? I guess I’m keeping this car. That could be a choice with major consequences. Maybe it won’t even get on the road this year. I think that’d be alright. […]
Zenkei Coupe – Up in the Air
Rally-x again yesterday. Andrew's BC6 is coming nicely. STRD threw on his CES 3" turbo back on Thursday (we were never going to get around to it) and some tune-up parts were added by us on Saturday. It didn't like rev's much before, and we always ended up shifting way before the limiter... but now, it sneaks up fast, and you wish it would rev higher. [...]
Co-Driving the BC6 at Rally-x
Pulsar’s gone. Whatever. Stop sending me emails to tell me I’m whipped. You don’t even know what that means. I’ve done my thing and it’s time to move on. These have been easy decisions… I’m sad to be leaving, but if you knew what I was trading it all for… AE86 is still hanging around. It might stay… we’ll see […]
Pulsar is Gone.
It dumped a bucket of snow last night. Must’ve been like 30cm worth. My travels today took me a short distance out of the city, where I stumbled upon unplowed roads. I never made it to my final destination, because I got sidetracked and ran out of gas. Today has me feeling like the RNN14 is definitely the best car […]
