Time to wrap up the 2010 Hyper Meeting coverage with this final look at more action and some of the most powerful all-wheels-drive machinery in Japan, starting with the mighty AVO Impreza demo car, now sporting a lighter curb weight and even more power. As Ross explained they managed to shave off close to 60 kg by using lightweight materials and fitting
One of the biggest attraction of the Hyper Meeting is always the race cars and you can't get more aggressive than this GT300 Cusco Impreza, a car that was never particularly successful in Super GT but one that always grabbed the heart of enthusiasts. This is now replaced by the Legacy in the GT300 class. It is yet unknown if Zero Sport will create
Time to dive into the world of all-wheel-drive cars with a more detailed look at some of the action and at some of the rides on display from the 2010 Hyper Meeting. Like every year this is the first event that I get my first serious sunburn of the season, and the sun sure didn't spare my poor sensitive skin this time round either! Despite this I
After spending last weekend down in Nagoya it was back to the Ibaraki-ken countryside today for what has for many years been one of the biggest track events of the year, the Hyper Meeting. As I made my way through the paddock this morning I was very impressed with the turnout of cars, which seemed to span as far as the eye could see, and the number
Last weekend, the Redline Time Attack series headed out to the Autobahn Country Club in Joliet, Illinois for their third event of 2009. A country club with a race track? If only we had something like that here on the west coast... Thanks to Rich over at AMS Performance (located in nearby West Chicago), we have a few photos from the Redline event to
Sunshine welcomed the drivers of the Time Attack championship to Scotland for round 2, 2008 champion and lap record holder Olly Clark looked fast in the Roger Clarke motorsport Impreza but after practice was back in 4th place a second off his 2008 lap record time of 52.186 seconds. Round 1 winner Chris Ward couldn't make round 2 so RSE motorsport
If there is something I really like about the Hyper Meeting it has to be the mix of race cars the organizers throw into the event. As an opening shot I chose this action snap of the Super Taikyu (ST) Team Endless EvoX, flying past me just before the main in-field hairpin. ST regulations dictate that the cars need to stay in a pretty "stock"
The 2009 Hyper Meeting in Tsukuba turned out to be a very reassuring event for the whole tuning industry surrounding Evos, Imprezas and the odd Legacy. Compared to last year's event the uncertainty with the new Impreza and Lancer has all but disappeared thanks to tons of new products having been developed. You can now find all sorts of new bits
Just got back from the 2009 Hyper Meeting in Tsukuba and what a day packed full of action it was. For now a little preview will have to do as I'm dead tired, sunburnt and sleep deprived! The Subaru and Mitsubishi guys were all out in full force embracing the latest generation Impreza and Lancer Evolution. Action on track was almost non-stop, with
The UK Time Attack series wrapped up its eventful 2008 season this past weekend at Snetterton Race Circuit and the event would determine the final season standings. In what was seemingly typical UK weather, the day got started under foggy, damp conditions but by the end the event day it appears that conditions were pretty pleasant. Lee Chung was there
