Seriously, whats going on here? First HKS is moving out of the U.S., now BMI/HV is canceled? Its like the world truly is ending....

The only saving grace is this.

EDIT: I’ve found out a bit more today about what’s going on. 2&4 Motoring, the production company of Best Motoring and Hot Version is basically a child company of Kodansha, so it has been dissolved along with the DVD titles. The brands will still belong to Kodansha, so those titles are unfortunately effectively cancelled.
However, the production guys have a good working relationship with Keiichi Tsuchiya, who has a lot of ideas about creating new video content, not least of which is his Drift Muscle series! The a group of the same guys who made Best Motoring and Hot Version will now be working with Tsuchiya and creating video coverage the new Drift Muscle events! There’s some light at the end of the tunnel after all.

oh I thought, I wrote that news before... or maybe it was on different forum.

Any case, yes that news was big surprise for me too... but you know that was going to happen when DK left D1/Option. IIRC currently, DK is on several small dvds (like D to D which is mag made by Orido & NOB).

iirc next yr going to be DK coming back (so I read in Japanese forum)... but again it's still a rumor on actual time.

Maybe for the Japanese market...but what about us U.S. folks?

You know what! I feel that the "car culture" is ending soon

Hate to admit it, but seems everything we love is being taken away.
