ナンデモ

Nandemo. Spaced out wife just says, “whatever.”

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. Below zero temperatures and the upcoming event at Fuji meant attendance was pretty minimal. In fact he was the only 86. But his is interesting enough to satisfy most. It hasn’t […]

Mata Motorland Mikawa

Wow.  This looks like a wicked way to spend any day.  Any day except for Christmas day.  Come on.  I’m missing Canada.

A Hashirya’s Christmas

Without intention, I’ve been very exposed to Japanese dramas and media. An empty train station in the middle of the night is the perfect place to discover the last vampire or for a young man to meet a beautiful lady. This is not New York. Getting stabbed or shot is the last thing on my mind. It is here that […]

I’m reping the iPhone hard. It’s practically the only thing I’m taking to Japan. 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 […]

This Is A Test

Masaharu sent me this HORRIBLE video and details of his recent escapades. I played it in the background, enjoying only the first 30seconds mostly. It’s easy to forget how haggard and hard guys over there. And it’s easy to forget that although AE86 doesn’t dominate competition, it still dominates the streets. This rivet trend is OK I guess.  I probably […]

    I’d rock it, you know it. In fact, I almost did with the MR2.

    However, I decided against it when I discovered that Crown Surplus did not have the specific armaments I was looking for. Apparently two 7.7mm Type 97 machineguns and two 20m Type 99 autocannons are a bit much. And even if they could be sourced, they’d have to be non functional. Pfft.. ya right. It’s no fun if I can’t strafe pedestrians.
