I guess I was on Kadena the same time you were on the Island. I was still an High School Kid but we would always go out to Aja to watch the drifting.

I guess I'd probably be in the same place. I don't really think that movie made any impact on people like me that just appreciated the technical aspects of this hobby along with a little legal racing/spirited driving. Those movies were more for the whole HIN/Hard Parking/Hell-Frush scene which I never understood. I thought that scene was pretty much dead until this car came along...
I was watching Initial D before those movies came out and that did it for me. Those movies just fueled my rape.
