Scion Drift
Good ol Ken Gush, at least they sent a proffesional to do a behind the scenes. Wonder if he thinks the same thing as me, and says, toyota please dont give us a retarded dumbed down version of the car that you demo! As we all know, all concepts look way better than the actual thing. Why this is, I really dont know. I theorize it has something to do with the actual shapping of the frame, and that the more lines and angles you produce the more expensive it gets. Anybody agree with that? On another topic, Speaking of drifting, I wish Ken would drop that damn cursed 3S-GTE in is TC and just drop a V-8 in it. Poor guy has had the worse luck with mechanical failures. I got to see him in his new TC back in '08, he did did one full round and beat who he drifted agaisnt, then the second time his car broke.. I was like, oh man, wtf?? I was so dissapointed because I heard how good he was and because his car wasnt responding right, he couldnt actually achieve a good drift. It was a sad day for the "Gush".

Drifting
Yeah when his car works, he drifts really good, seen it on other videos. I think last year he took a podium finish.

Ken doesn't have a 3s-GTE in his tC, where you been? They ditched the mechanical problem of a BEAMS motor and swapped the factory 2az back into the tC, per advice from Chris Rado. Now he has no mechanical issues with the motor and makes 760hp vs his old BEAMS motor that use to make only 400. I'll have to ask him what they plan to do with the tC though once he switches up to an FR-S. This Reminds me...FD is LIVE today! Time to go stream some video and watch the action...later... |

This is the guy that Scion needs talking about the car, not the other guy from Scion. This guy seems down to earth and has his heart in this kind of car. That other guy just comes off as trying too hard to be "hip"

Vice president read off a script. Lol. And rehearsed just to make it sound like he cared about about the car. He is probably dreaming the $$$ that's going to come in. Lol.

"The opening right here is like... it's breathing for a lot of air because you know when you go fast you need a lot of air." haha
