Zenkei 2 Door

Oops. The car that twice I said I would never get rid of is gone. The final explanation of that is that sometimes ones appetite is bigger than one’s stomach. This car simply got too hard for me, and it was all my own doing. If I had more money it would have stayed in storage forever, probably tuned even harder and driven any less.

And I say driven even less, but that’s probably impossible. In the last few years of it’s time with me I only found a couple opportunities to take this car on a closed course and really enjoy it. It was amazing there, but an embarrassment and pain in the ass on the street. I loved it dearly, but don’t miss it at all now that it’s gone… especially when I see it rolling hard around town all glassed and vinyled up.

Another weekend come and gone. Lethbridge is about how I remember it. The old backroads are short and tight and maybe not everything memory stacked them up to be, and the town is a little more crowded than before… but what can I expect. The drifting event was great. I learned a lot about driving. Practiced up, performed well… shredded […]

Drifting in the Bridge

.. I don’t know what’s going to happen. Clearly no one wants to buy my car. I upgraded my Hawk HPS to HP Plus. Wow these pads are amazing. My new Advan’s are in Calgary… I don’t want to sell this car. Sure it’s not great to drive every day. Sure… I’m leaving the country and many other things… but […]

New Shoes and Pads

I could write a book after today… and maybe I will, so look out. After a little deliberation, I hit the Dsport season closer today. I deliberated a little because… drifting just hasn’t been fun for me this year, and for much of last year. Secondly… I’ve really only practiced once since last August (AF#2), and I’ve seen hints of […]

D-Sport – Competition Just Isn’t That Fun

1

One more year has ended… or close to it. This Saturday, September 2nd, marks the last D-sport competition of the year, and the Monday following is the last CSCC auto-x of the year. At least that’s the official stuff, but following are numerous fun events that benefit from fall weather, or at lest that’s how I think. Either way, my […]

2006 Season End?

I will keep driving AE86. This week was a thoughtful week. Thought one was buying a third AE86, one that is for sale locally and equipped with an AE111 20V, as well as a good selection of footwork parts. The price was fair, and this is a purchase I would recommend to anyone looking for a moderate tune AE86, however, […]

Fickle like a …

When I started driving AE86, over 8 years ago now, I would have said the best part about AE86 life, was the strong sense of community and family among other AE86 owners. Back then, there were maybe 5 or 6 guys in Calgary who drove and loved AE86. Club4ag was tiny, and almost everyone knew everyone else by name. Mind […]
