Hey, that's my favorite winter sport too! What a small world.

I love the black line over the eyes, lol.

Nice pics.

this is called SUZUKI X-90.
it shares the chasis and most components with sidekicks.
http://x90.zukiweb.com/
the car is part time 4WD with manualy selectable transfer.
and I was doing this with 4WD.

cappccis are nice. it's good it's cheap to own even in Japan.
but the car itself is expensive, if it's in good condition.

>black line
just in case anyone in my university finds out the pic!

Here is my 4WD Talon at the Studs on Ice event, somewhere in northern NY (on a huge lake in the middle of nowhere). On the back sweeping straight I could hit 85 mph(complete opposite lock in 4th gear, it was sweet), the winning 400hp 20V Turbo Quattro Group A rallycar hit 94 with spikes.

Is the Sizuki X-90 the same as the Aerio? (same car?)

The Aerio weights in at 2805 lbs, 15lbs less than the Subaru Impreza, and is 4wd. Nice little car if the engine has enough spunk to make use of the 4wd.

looks nice place. is that your website? and are you a professional photographer?
the video is awesome.

>Drift for food
no they are 2 totaly differnt cars. Aerio is a FF based car and
X-90 is a truck based coupe.
they put a 2seater coupe body onto truck chasis to make it look like a sportscar.
2seater body on this chasis

Plinker,
That is my website but I am not currently photographing full time. I am the technician for a shop in Boston called Auto Design Haus. I am hoping to one day work as a prof. photographer and I do as much prof. work now as my time will allow but I will put more time into that in a few years. Nice shot by your friend by the way.

werksrally,

I still haven't seen them all,
but I have to say I really really love your works.
you know, I buy lot of WRC related magazines,
but I haven't seen any like these.
I wish you could cover the entire season!
and we are born in the same year. I though you are
much older. they look mature.

BTW, taking such a good ones, the friend still doesn't
interested in photography nor drifting. can't believe!
I wish I could drift and shoot it at the same time

Unbeliveably cool! I wish I could do stuff like that!

But, alas, it doesn't snow in southern California...

Love the ice racing DSM Werksrally. I'm glad to see some more WRC fans my age here

p.s. I too love the winter cuase it's the only time I can slide my big 'Bird around the parking lot slow enough that I don't have to worry about breaking the driveline, wearing out the tires or running into anything
