It’s almost fall, and to me that means prime wrenching season. After three quarters of a season of racing, and the end of mosquito season… motivations are never higher. When my car sits in the garage and doesn’t get driven, I forget how much I like it and start fantasizing about other cars. It’s not without flaws (the turbo being […]
Still got love for… [THROWBACK – Velocity is Faster]
Masaharu running at Motorland Mikawa. He’s no longer in his 4AG powered Sunny… but back in a naturally aspirated AE86. Love. I enjoyed this picture of his wrecked friends as well. They all wreck so often. At least that’s how I feel. It’s commonplace enough at least that trucks like this one are always on hand. Drift culture in Canada […]
