Russian drifter Felix makes a short documentary about his trip to the Ebisu drift track(s) for the G1Gp. The beater practice drift cars are pretty much the best thing ever.

Advanced notice on having to read subtitles if you don't know Russian, and some blatant Stig knock off bits. (Russians copying material? Why I never!) :ussr:

Also kindly requesting a Gif of this part. (~7:58)




Also feel free to skip the boring tacky ending. \

The whole car is badass, but anything with a cantilever suspension makes me hard. The twin v8's are nice, but I saw that first in a street rod about 20 years ago. Seeing something like that in a T-bucket is more impressive than a purpose built car, oddly enough.

Put a glide in your stride and a dip in your hip and come on up to the mothership.
That would be a better car in so many ways if it just had one v8. I especially like the pop up viper roof.

This got a chuckle out of me though.

Let it bleep.

Jeez. And I thought Teslas were shoddy. The two things about this car that I couldn't unsee:

1) Note the fender gaps around the hood and doors how uneven they are. It's almost like they took a hammer to shape the thing into place

2) The "KARMA" lettering, where each letter is doing its own thang:


Some of this is the nature of being hand-made, but I don't see the same problem coming out of a lot of other less-funded manufacturers.

Insideline put one on a hoist and it looks pretty well built, they're made by Valmet in Finland, from the same plant that made Caymans.

Sorry if this is common racing knowledge somehow, but why arent his tires making any noise? I cant hear the slightest screeching. Is it in any way related to that white powder he drives in at :18 or is that just how racing slicks are?

If I remember right, screeching usually comes from treadblocks. Slicks don't have treadblocks.

It's got a GSXR1000 engine, around 200hp. Slightly less torque than a 'Busa engine, but considering how light a stripped X1/9 is, it doesn't matter that much.

It's got a lot to do with compound as well. Soft compounds grip more and make noise, he looks to be running a hard compound with all the skating around he's doing.

The real fun is watching a dirt modified enter a turn with tires squealing, it makes no sense. Especially when they throw up sparks.

Speaking of modifieds...

Great documentary about Richie Evans, one of the best short track racers in history. Has a bunch of old racing clips in it.

This documentary of him isn't as good, so here's just the old racing part of it.
