It's been a while since we released a Speedhunters video I know.... but after a few delays, the production of a whole new set of videos is now under way! This particular video was shot at Ebisu Circuit last August... we had just finished filming the Team Orange Triple Drift film but I had one more shot I wanted to get done. So I asked Kumakubo if
Here is a fantastic shot of Kumakubo's new toy for your viewing pleasure... you can add it to your desktop and just stare at it lovingly all day long!.... or.... not.... Head over to the desktops page to download. :R
It honestly seems like it was just a few weeks ago that I was at Fuji Speedway covering the final round of the 2008 D1GP season, but it's already late March and the 2009 D1 Grand Prix season will begin this weekend at Ebisu Circuit. You can expect to see a lot of D1 coverage from Japan on Speedhunters this year, and we thought it would be a good
The D1 Street Legal competition at Ebisu Circuit was extremely rough for competitors (and the guys shooting photos trackside!), as the torrential rains coming down presented a bit of a problem...

Besides the all of the EDC regulars, the roster also included Team Orange's Nobushige Kumakubo and Kazuhiro Tanaka making an appearance in their second round of EDC competition after an impressive
Now that you have seen the first day of action from the D1 Grand Prix Tokyo Drift exhibition round as plus the demo runs and girls from the event, it's time to wrap our coverage with a look at Sunday's exhibition contest. It would turn out to be a very exciting day. The weather forecast was calling for rain on Sunday, but much to the relief
Fans who attended the D1GP Tokyo Drift exhibition match over the weekend were treated to much much more than just your standard D1 drift competition. Given the event's high profile locale and the desire to make sure ticket buyers got their money's worth, event organizers saw to adding several demo runs and performances that were held over the
As popular as the D1 Grand Prix is in Japan, almost all D1 events are held at racing circuits located quite far from large urban areas, and given the expense of travel in Japan, it makes it difficult for many fans to attend the events. For a couple years D1 held a round at Odaiba in Tokyo, but the event disappeared after the 2005 season. Earlier this
If you haven't yet heard , last weekend's EDC round at Silverstone went down with all the excitement you would expect from a match-up featuring top drivers from both Europe and Japan battling against the backdrop of a legendary racing circuit. Nobushige Kumakubo and Kazuhiro Tanaka from Team Orange put up a strong showing in their first EDC
