Since I was on holiday for the past four weeks I totally missed hachi-roku-day! :(
Lucky enough I already saw some great stuff in the past days like the 48km Corolla GT on Speedhunters. I also saw this video by JRotaro on Youtube of lots of hachis having fun at the Fuji drift course next to the Fuji Speedway:

Now this is something you definitely don't want to miss! ;)

What better way to familiarize your daughter with drifting than have her play with your AE86 from now and then:

Judging from the buildings and mountain in the background I guess this picture was taken at Ebisu North

This video shows what the average hachi roku enthusiast will drool over: 4:25 minutes non-stop hachi action on hachi-roku-day at Fuji Speedway!

Anyone actually able to count them all? I lost track at a certain moment and my guess is somewhere near 30!

Happy Hachi Roku day! :)

Like you probably know or already read/heard it is today hachi roku day!
What is hachi roku day then? From Japanese hachi translates into 8, roku into 6 so in other words: 86. Today it is August sixth. Get it? If you are from Europe probably not, but in Japan and the US this date reads 8-6, hence it is hachi roku day today! ;)

To celebrate hachi roku day I have some funny AE86 videos for you today! Let's kick off with the AE86 dry run:

So how about a Corolla E80 FWD vs RWD commercial comparison? South African FWD:
Moonwalk, GT-S commercial, old man George doing donuts and cute little kid saying hachiroku on the next page!

As some people may have noticed: I started blogging for HR blog starting from today onwards! This will mean all my AE86 related ramblings will be posted on HR blog from now on! ;)

Of course you won't see my non-AE86 ramblings over there, so I'll just keep those here. It also does not mean I'm going to slack here either. Just have to type a bit faster than normal! :D
