Spotted this Datsun 510 in the Nissan carpark the other day.

Continuing on from the Motorkhana post, I went back out to the skidpan yesterday to take a couple more photos. It’s still not exactly what I’m after but getting closer.
Mobile >> Nihonmatsu SuperStore – Power KoMoRi
Posted: November 3, 2011 by stinkypoo31 in UncategorizedUnfortunately I didn’t get any photos of this store from the outside. Power Komori is basically a store with everything for the household. Located 5-10 minute drive from the Nihomatsu train station and about 20 minutes from Ebisu, it is one place you would most likely visit while you are drifting at Ebisu.
The sell almost everything a house hold could need. Food, Tools, clothes, even pets they are all available at this store.
Last Sunday was the MG Car Clubs final motorkhana round of the year. As well as competing, I was trying to take some long exposure photos.
Australian Drift Grand Prix, Round 1 – Sunday photos

Opps, I completely forgot to post the rest of the photos from the Sunday of ADGP Round 1. It has been so long that the second round has already happened, with Luke Fink taking the win again!
One of the most difficult parts of writing an article for me is the first sentence. Now I have overcome that part we can move on to the story. Ben is a Canberra local who moved from Canada several years ago. He has already built one amazing S15 (which I hope to take photos of later) but would also like to be involved more with drifting. Instead of destroying the S15, he bought this 180 as his drift pig. Bought with a set of BC Coilovers, the car was drift worthy until the engine bearing let go a few weeks ago.
Looks like it was over a month ago, when I said I would post more pictures of this AE86, back in this Post. We met the brothers while we skidding at the Ebisu Kurukuru course in August. The younger brother recently sold his modified Nissan R33 Skyline, to purchase a Hachi just like his older brother.
Continuing where I left off int he previous post, we spent our second day in Japan traveling to Nihonmatsu. But first we needed to make a quick stop at Ueno to pick up some SD cards, hard drive and tapes.
Hopefully this post doesn’t confuse you but were not going back to Japan already. I have had a few questions about our trip and thought I should try to cover it in more depth. Hopefully my memory serves me well, I’m sure someone will correct me if I write something incorrect. We left for Japan the day after World Time Attack Challenge (which reminds me, I need to go through those photos). We managed to get a day flight out of Sydney, leaving at 8am with a lay over in Singapore. This was the first time Nic and Rohan had travelled overseas.
Australian Drift Grand Prix – Saturday photos

Wow, it’s already been two weeks since ADGP has been run and won. Round two is just one week away, with the final at Barabagelo soon after. For our international visitors to this site, Australian Drift Grand Prix or ADGP is Australia’s newest national drifting competition. There has been a lot of talk on Australian import forums about this event, it’s rules and the track layout. Promises were made for Japanese style flick entries, walls, Ebisu like track, no Boldger, door to door action that spectators could get close too.
