The Chaser is gone. The Magilla Gorilla build is done. While it didn’t end up where my daydreams envisioned, it was the right move to change directions going forward.

These pictures were taken at a scrapyard in Japan; therefore, the above image is very much the way things should be. The below image on the other hand leaves you with a sense of bewilderment.

I spotted this muscle-car/mafia spec Volkwagen in Prague on my Euro adventure the summer of 2010. I’ve never been one for bugs but this one was pretty rugged – chopped top, flushed out wheels with a bit of meat, limo tint, etc.

Since my last post on the topic, I’ve been working on drafting up quite an epic list of car part words, names, and brands in Japanese. While I’m sure they will be some more tweaks made, I wanted to post up the “beta” version of the list to get some feedback for additions. Leave a [...]

Nakamura-san is the “boss” of the Trickers car club/group/team/collective-of-people-who-put-TRICKERS-stickers-on-their-cars and runs a shop of the same name. And despite his intimidating looks, he is a jovial, kind-hearted guy who loves being an ambassador to drifting more than driving itself (it would seem) which is the reason for the event. So it is only appropriate that [...]
