Tokyo Drift Reborn - Underground Car Culture Goes Mainstream | Capturing Car Culture

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Back by popular demand, Larry Chen attends Tokyo's most exclusive underground car meet, which isn't so underground anymore-and that's a good thing. This exclusive car meet garnered so much attention and built such a reputation that manufacturers like Nissan took interest and used the event to feature their Hyperforce concept car alongside the iconic Super Silhouette race car. Larry also had the opportunity to witness a gathering of automotive unicorns when a local group of Kaido Racers showed up, allowing him to meet and photograph them.

    Man compare this to the horrible car meets we have here in SoCal where everyone either revs, does a burnout or donut drawing attention to where cops come and shut it down. Especially in underground or roof parking lots. The closed off areas allow the exhaust sound to be amplified where someone in a BMW, Infiniti G37, Mustang, Challenger, Charger ruins the meet.

    Yeah, how is this not a show on Motortrend or something? I wish tv cable networks and streaming services that are serious about car focused material, would look at this channel, or syndicate it. We don’t need another hour long show where a bunch of rednecks fake work on a car, and most of the build is them adding so much drama and unprofessionalism that you would never hire them to touch your car.
