I'm currently sitting on site at the NFS Electro Lounge, listening to the sound of roaring engines mixing in with DJ Miki Taka's throbbing basslines... I need to check out the track action in a sec, but first I want to give props to a Fredric Aasbo who qualified seventh yesterday. It's quite the performance! I take my fedora off to him!
After appearing in the '08 Red Bull Drift Championship, and last year's Formula D closer at Irwindale, Norwegian driver Fredric Aasbo is set to return to US competition at FD Long Beach 2010. Fredric will run with the support of a SoCal-based outfit called FSR Motorsports Creations. There's no word on whether he'll be running the full
After seeing a widebody JZA80 at Fuji Speedway last month for the HKS Premium Day I was instantly reminded of this Abflug - Curve Supra I shot a few years back. To this day it is one of the most extreme body conversions I have seen, along with another mega-wide Abflug JZA80 I snapped years ago. You can always count on the guys at Abflug to shock and
Uniqueness is sometimes the cause for confusion, and this particular car being built by Auto Bahn out in Ibaraki-ken is the perfect example. I spotted it inside their workshop the other month when I stopped over to check another of their cars out. I thought it looked pretty cool with that nice carbon front diffuser and canards on each side of the bumper
At the beginning of each year, Super GT teams flock to Malaysia to undertake harsh preseason testing at the Sepang Circuit. This, however, is not one of these cars. I hope you’re seated ladies and gentlemen, because what you’re looking at is actually a Malaysian street car, dramatically modified in homage to the steroid-fed racers of Super
Australia would probably be the last place you’d expect to stumble across a Super GT race car, but thanks to some persistent negotiations, Toyota Australia was able to bring over a piece of automotive history: TRD’s infamous GT500 Supra. When I caught wind of it being in the country, the first thing I thought was that it was probably a rolling
I'll finish up blogging about my recent trip to California with a quick story about the journey from the hotel to the airport this past Monday. The plan was to drop off the NFS Terlingua off at Shelby's LA HQ and take a cab to LAX, but this isn't exactly how things turned out. So here we are parking up the Mustang for another sad good bye
Next month's Formula Drift season finale at Irwindale Speedway is shaping up to be quite the event. Besides the chase for the championship, the FD finale will also host overseas drivers like Fredric Aasbo - the Scandinavian star who competed at the Redbull Drift Championship wlast year. Fredric just officially announced his entry for Irwindale,
I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Kazuhiko “Smoky” Nagata for many years now. Nagata-san is of course the founder of the legendary tuning shop, Top Secret. Going beyond that, he is also a bit of a worldwide motorsports celebrity, in fact he is a rather unique example of a motorsports star. Not many people can claim celebrity driver
I've really been enjoying my fellow Speedhunters work from the Bonneville Salt Flats. I would love to go there at least once in my life, but in the meantime I can enjoy all these pictures which we recently got from our friends at Super Street magazine. You may have read yesterday's story about the Dandy team with their Mazda FC -this is the
