Mazda RX7

Yup, its that time of year again. The sun is out and competitive British drifting is about to start, with the British Drift Championship’s first round on the 22nd of April, and JDM Allstars first round on April 25th. To celebrate, here’s some photos I never published from JDM Allstars Wembley 2010.

FD3S

FD RX7 FD3S

A good friend of mine gave me a ride to the last Stanceworks meet. Unfortunately I didn’t get an opportunity to get any good snaps of his car (why do I always neglect the car I arrive in?). Despite this, his FD is pretty much a big deal. Subtle on the outside, savage where it counts. Riding in cars like this often makes me think that I got enthusiastic about the wrong chassis! Anyway, I’ll be pushing Ryan to invest in some RPF1s, and hopefully there will be a full photoshoot on the cards ASAP.

It was a beautiful day on Sunday, so I walked over to the local supermarket carpark to check out this month’s Honda Culture meet. There were some insanely clean Hondas, and a few really nice VWs too.

A couple days back I got an email from Craig showing me his really tidy Z33. Best of all, its a UK car. Its pretty rare to see UK Z’s modified to this extent. Its wearing a full Chargespeed kit and 19″ Racing Harts.

White Christmas

200sx

Its pretty rare for us to get snow at Christmas here in England, so I snapped a couple pics whilst I had the opportunity. I would of liked to find an empty carpark to have some fun in, but knowing my complete lack of RWD driving skills I would of ended up in a ditch long before actually getting to the carpark.
