    Damm You need to find the closest china town or somthing. shoot even order one if you have to....IT'sThe BEST mag ever..Even tho you can read most of it THere is alot of great pics of products and tons oF cars..take off 2 zeros from the price of products to get a idea on what the price is on all the new "JDM" stuff that we don',t get easly. But I would order one if you have never see one before..IT's worth it.

        Saddy...or luckily, Takumi got me into drifting. Yep, him. Anyways, that's what first showed me the sport. From there on, it was just my desire to become better that pushed me on.

            My Japanese friend, Daisuke, from high school introduced me to drifting back in '97. He was always an FR Nissan fan and sported a 240SX (RPS S13) while everyone else here were into FF cars like integras and civics. He introduced me to v-opt videos and other "hashiriya" type videos, and told me why civics and integras aren't featured much in option magazines and such. It was a mystery to me back then because I couldn't read Japanese...

              My friends started www.dgtrials.com and said I should go out and learn how to drift my car.

              I am still learning.

                      ^no idea what u said about the white TII.

                      got tired of the whole 1/4 mile thing. i mean wow. they can go fast in a straight line. i found it sorta boring, but when I saw Initial D and saw some underground vids from Japan i liked it and it excited me. I've been into since. that was about 2 years ago.

                        Always was into rally racing and played with matchbox cars in the dirt sliding em sideways when i was little.. untill about a year ago i didnt really know what drifting was... i went through a huge muscle car street racing/drag racing phase.... then the love for car control and driver skill dawned on me.... and the fun art of drifting

                        just my story....

                          Yeah i remember tommy's classic car stage......poor him...i would just let him talk about how muscle cars were better than imports and shake my head.... .........i got into drifting about two years ago from an event at California Speedway in fontana......there was a falken tire demo with cars that slid sideways????? What a concept!!!! so i watched and was hooked on the smell of rubber burning ever since........first contact with Drift Xtreme Drivers and Girl Drivers.......Damn they are good.......
