If there is a will, there is a way. The Team Takeuchi Lexus IS you see here is quite an interesting car, it was created out of need, and as we will see shares very little with the Lexus IS you and I know. The project was handled by Shift Racing , a highly technological outfit that for years has been building cars that participate in Super GT, Super
Time to shift our TAS coverage to Toyota, one manufacturer that has won back the respect of car enthusiasts since the announcement of the FT-86 in fall last year. To everyone's surprise Toyota's new tuning outfit, G's, created a turbocharged version of the new hachiroku , leaving most stunned at just how damn hot this car can look dressed
I spotted this Ings-kitted Lexus LS this last summer at the Okayama round of D1, parked up in the VIP lot. It was probably running a ride-height controller to get the air-suspension to drop to their lowest setting I thought it looked pretty menacing. I think it could have done with more offset to get those 20-inchLS Sport LM VIII to sit a little more
I'm really finding it hard to believe that we're already way past the half point of the 2009 racing season, to me it seems like just a bit ago we were working on our preview stories for the season. Anyways, the Super GT series was in action last weekend during its annual summertime trip to Suzuka Circuit for the Pokka GT Summer Special. Here's
Last weekend the Super GT series was in action again, this time at Sportsland Sugo in Japan's Miyagi Prefecture. Being round five, this race would be the midpoint of the 2009 Super GT season. So far '09 hasn't been the dominant year that '08 was for the GT-R teams, but most people still consider them favorites in the GT500 class. As
What better way to spend Japan's "Golden Week" holiday than by taking in a Super GT race at Fuji Speedway? After just a two week break, the Suer GT series was back in action for its third race of the season and its first visit to Fuji this year. Last time at Suzuka Circuit, the Zent Cerumo SC430 ended the GTR's winning streak in GT500
Well, we are already halfway through April and the racing season is in full swing no matter which form of motorsport suits your fancy. While we were in Long Beach covering the ALMS race, the Japanese Super GT series took to the track at Suzuka Circuit for it's second race of the 2009 season. Looking at these photos (and Dino's recent event coverage
Was taking a look through Manabu "MAX" Ordio's official blog this afternoon when I found this cool photo of the JZS161 Aristo that he will be drifting this year. From what I can gather, this is the same car that he used in Formula D last year, with a few changes. There's some new graphics repping Orido's long time friends at the
Now matter how comfortable or luxurious they might be, I have never been able to look at SUV's in the same way as traditional luxury cars. I suppose you can blame that on one too many rap videos or over-the-top SEMA show cars. Sometimes though, you see an SUV that can almost make you forget about all those bad soccer mom and rap star cliches. How
As you probably gathered from the teaser photo I posted the other day, I recently took a trip to the famous headquarters and factory of HKS, which is located near the base of Mt. Fuji in Shizuoka Prefecture. Japan's clogged highways made for a long drive out to Shizuoka from Tsukuba, but It was more than worth it to experience the home of what's
