Sometimes I wish I spoke Japanese... I guess most of the video was getting set up to race, then the actual race was trying to see who could be closest to the leader at the end?

Also, there's some strange girl in a leopard print dress-thing... @humfrz would like that part I think...

Sorry, i was mean J's2000 against revolution 86. FEED against N/A machines is like Mike Tyson vs Paquiao.

Correct, previously (vol 138), they had 2 other cars trying out to become Maoh (Demon Lord) for Gunsai Circuit. They had Ini-D style race to see who’s the fastest. J’s S2k beat Assist’s M3, FEED’s 7 beat Revolution’s 86. They were going to do J’s vs FEED, but it was too dark to battle. In the end, they gave both of em the title... but FEED owner didn’t like that & requested to actually battle w J’s. So in April, they battle (vol 140). While setting up they were recording the section 2 time rec (that’s where they usual rec), & both got 24 secs which no cars have ever record. When they battle (Ini-D style battle), first J’s went and FEED lost. Nob claim didn’t have power, so FEED checked and it wasn’t on the proper boost bar (so they fixed it). Second FEED went and J’s lost. It was going to be sudden death battle, but DK & Nob said that, they can keep going but it’ll keep going cuz both know pros and cons of the car, so whoever is the head will win... unless they want the driver to “Orido” (aka wreck the car). So FEED & J’s agreed for the safety of drivers, they called it a tie.

Hands down J’s S2k will win. I think Revo’s 86 is great... but lack power badly. It barely have 200whp. Yes, that thing weight 992kg, but J’s S2k have 2.6 liter & rev around 8k pushing 345whp! That thing is a beast!!!!!

Iirc Revo had 2.3 liter FA, but due to some kind of issue, they swap em back to stock engine. If they cone back w 2.3 liter w some kind of SC push 350~400, THEN... maybe, just MAYBE they have a chance against J’s or FEED. Problem w 86 is ABS. Stock abs system isn’t great (which all pro-drivers have complained), so need to take it off & gotta do full custom program... which isn’t cheap or easy.

Heck, back-in-the-day, we used to drift all kinds of cars, even Buicks.

That's before they went and paved all the roads.....

Back then, we didn't call it "drifting", we just called it driving fast .....

How many of these are there? At least 140 I'm assuming.

Still have no idea what the point of the girl was lol. Some sort of grid girl? Idk... I'm just going to assume Japan is a strange place.

Careful with supercharger, dont want the same thing like happened with ARVOU. Dori Dori had problems with traction due to power increased, the balance was fucked up just adding power. Ibwant a rematch between FEED amd RE Amemiya

I didn’t see the ARBOU SC vol. which one was that?

[ScoobsMcGee]

I suddenly find myself tempted to go buy a dilapidated car from some junkyard just so I can make a "Bought a car more rusty than my BRZ" thread. Or buy a Mustang for a "Bought a car more boring on back roads than my BRZ, but line lock sure is fun!" Or maybe another WRX for "Bought a car more AWD than my BRZ."

The possibilities are endless.

Or a minivan. Bought a car more big than my BRZ.

Sure, this was the race

Another commute to work on the train, another douche trying to elbow my arm off the small armrest even though he sat down after me. Ffs.

I never understood why trains/planes don't have their own armrests for each seat. Maybe it saves space or something but come on they are retractable anyway most of the time.
