This pomme de terre came to me recently. I'm trying to do something with it. I'm not bright. Let's just keep count here. I believe this is #24. I've now owned, 24 corollas. I wouldn't consider this much of a Corolla, but it technically counts, since I write my own rules.

This began when a long line of moons aligned on some planet being pelted by lucky asteroids. My old Lemonade Wagon recently began a new motor swap from the old 12A...

Long ago, legendary import drag racer, Stephan Papadakis complimented my Scooter on facebook. We were not friends, I don't know how it happened. Also it has nothing to do with the story.   Not so long ago, but a fair while back, I was in desperate need of some transportation. I do keep falling down, and constantly need to be picked back up from the rubble. Mike day, a local corolla fellow dragged a husk of a scooter from the bushes behind his parents garage.

I was watching some of my favorite music from years past, when I came across SuperRad by Aquabats. Great song, but I noticed a very strange automotive Cameo in the video. Let's see if you catch it. :)

They were banned. Removed from North American society, gone the way of the lawn darts and street meth, the dangerous 3 wheelers were sent to burn in hell to keep the public safe. I can't say that Meth is something to try, but I can say that not everyone agrees with this idealism. Pictured above is what most North Americans think of when you mention a '3 Wheeler'. It's very similar to a personal favorite of mine, but it's note quite as similar in usage.

Some of you know what the Minami Jump is. It's a very famous section of track, notorious for it's sudden rise and fall. A strange section of winding course. Here's the known video of it's official debut.

These 2004 origins seem pretty weak compared to the much more aggressive had it evolved? Yes. But who was really doing the first big Jump? Some might say Daigo Saito.

Daigo's extreme practice regiment really pushed the boundaries of the Minami Jump and began aggressively applying it to contest runs shortly...
