I don’t get how stuff like this gets built in Japan. Obviously there is a lot I don’t know about engineering. Might be a rad drive in the end. The low road to Mikawa averages maybe 35km/h, and in the event of a quake is probably just as dangerous as the highway when thousands of tonnes of concrete loom overhead.

No touge runs ATM in this area with the police cracking down hard, so Masaharu and I made the two hour trip to Motorland Mikawa for some drift running.

Seven hour lay-overs (a sure sign that I’m too poor for this) are only survivable because of iBooks and the iTunes store. And now I figured out how to FTP as well? Rock on. I’ll sit here for seven more hours and never talk to another […]
