It is the new world record tire stretching: two tires at the same time!
In this video ae86lan is the stretched tires master.

JRotaro posted this very funny video of a guy doing air drifts in the Nikko Circuit paddock/bar. Especially the AE86 (NA 4AGE) is spot on and the JZZ30 is simply hilarious! What else can you expect from a group of drifters who solely breath through their 4AGEs! :D
I suspect it is 86jnosakuretu48te who did this marvelous performance. ;)
jrotaro did post a few vids of the AE86 air drifts before:
Now is this little girl doing baton twirling or Bojutsu in front of her daddy’s C210?
Bojutsu Skyline C210
It surely is a very nice Skyline Japan: presumably a 2000GT with some deep dish SSR Mk1s (I reckon something like 8J) and (after market?) front fenders with big breathing gills! And in the background a nice Mark II X30 hardtop coupe and what looks like the headlights of an Isuzu 117 coupe.
According to the source the picture was taken around 1990. Found at uvj*9’s blog
Yesterday evening was a sad one: I read Alexi’s latest post on Nori Yaho and discovered the Haruna tofushop (aka the Fujiwara tofushop in Initial D) has been demolished:
Fujiwara Tofushop was once here…
Where you see that big empty space in the picture above, used to be the shop as shown in the picture below:
Fujiwara Tofushop in its full glory
Sad, sad, sad….
So, Bunta now has enough space to park the Toyota Ipsum (Picnic). :D
You can read all the details about Alexi’s trip to Mount Haruna on Nori Yaro.
Most of the time I when I try finding other Carinas I spend a lot of time on Google Images. This week it proved once again to not be a very good too in finding Carinas: the Finnish site Minunauto (Finnish Cardomain/Minkara) is badly indexed by Google and once I did a search on the site it proved that Finland must be next to Japan the country with the most active Carina drivers/owners! I found at least 25 new Carinas!!
This one was one of the most striking Carinas: a DX coupe AA60, powered by a 4AFE!
Finnish Toyota Carina DX AA60 (4AFE)
Most people would go for the 4AGE road, but somehow the owner of this Carina didn’t do so, Perhaps it is because the early generation of the 4AFE is carbureted and easier to swap…
In contrary of the kouki JDM GT models this car features the wheels from a limited edition 280ZX during wintertime. They may look the same in the basic design, but they are different. Also note that in the picture above the rims are a bit more exotic than these. ;)

Nevertheless they look really nice in combination with the bodykit! I really wonder what kit that actually is from…

OMP steering wheel and custom tach make the interior look like a serious racing machine…
And here is the 4AFE:

Note that the distributor has been relocated (transverse 4A engines have them located at the back) and the exhaust manifold is a custom job.
And last but not least:

This is how good a EUDM Coupe can look! ^_^
Some time ago I posted a racing spec Supra MA71 spotted by on the Dutch highways. Since then I’m following his blog where he already posted a Honda Civic tribute and about Initial D. Yesterday he posted about his visit to the Japanese Autosport Festival at the TT circuit in Assen with 100+ pictures!
These are my two favorite pictures of the JAF 2010:
Einneb’s AE86 at JAF 2010 Assen (NL)
Lexus GS300 at JAF 2010 Assen (NL)
And tp give you an overview of what I missed this weekend:
JAF 2010 Assen (NL)
On one side I really regret not going there, but on the other side I’m happy I stayed at home since my son’s tonsils were removed last Friday and he was really suffering from it.
