Drift Crazy Meet. Spring '10
Temporary Success.

It's alive, it moves under it's own power and I somehow installed my clutch backwards, but it works sort of. lol

I love China part 2?
I don't know the story behind the Chinese World Drift Series, but I do know, it looks like good times. I see a bunch of ex-Formula D, and D1 cars locked in a stadium with a majority of American drifters, some Chinese and some Japanese drivers as well. Looks like heaven to me.

I love China.
Look, I'm a Communist Buddhist...Buddhuminist for short. I believe in open opportunity for all equally, and that objects only have value if they have use. So the Chinese system of production, and lack of patent laws makes life interesting and for the most part logical.

However, the Chinese already build all the parts/replacement parts for this car. So, why not build their own?...
Urine Trouble
It runs. Nothing can be said about longevity at this point but the 4ag block, 4ac head, re-used/re-drilled head gasket starts, runs and revs. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZQbHnJbsJ8]
