Hi guys The current theme of the blog is our builds going on these days. So I want to share some insight on what is going on with my cars. At this point there is still a lot of work on various angles ...

(Deutsch) Andrew Hirschy was ripping it up in Monza just recently at a D1 Stella practice session! His friend called simply Stan the Man with the Plan took his PS13 with S2000-Turbo engine out of the garage and onto the track. Andrew put together an edit of the happenings right here. Awesome!

Reliability

Sometimes it’s interesting how things evolve. Looking back on the 2011 drift season with Team SI, many images flash trough the mind. Images of incredible battles and great memories that will stay with me forever. On the other hand however, some nightmarish thoughts return as well since my old green S14 was rumored to be cursed by gypsies.

Alain’s 2012 Build – Week 5

Posted by Alain Tuesday January 24th, 2012 @ 05:00 AM Add Comments

(Deutsch) Week 5 of my 2012 S14 build was all about painting. Prepping interior and exterior parts for paint and applying that beautiful coat of deep purple and white.

Work was done very efficiently thanks to the mysterious drift dog.

Rather bought than built!

Last year I spent my spare time rather on backoffice topics at Speed Industries, trying to push many different projects and max out our internet presence as well as our social media activities. As you may have noticed, you didn’t see me that much on track and espacially not with my own car. Priorities just went in a different direction and I really had to admit that the Hachiroku might be a unreliable old shitbox for my dedicated purpose.
I really loved the car as what it was – but modding it more and more to have a even better fun-track-car it became insanely expensive to maintain! I destroyed nearly every part in the drivetrain – multiple times – during the time I tracked the car a lot and spend unresonable amout of hard earned money on fixing it for the next trackday.

Photography Friday – Offseason

Posted by Martin A. Friday January 20th, 2012 @ 05:00 AM Add Comments

As you might have noticed, we’re in between seasons. No trackdays, no driftevents for weeks, what is a petrolhead supposed to do during all this time? Well, I could build myself a 7000hp driftcar and win D1 seven times.. but unfortunately I have no money, otherwise I’d certainly be doing that. So unfortunately I had to restrict myself to swapping the diffs and transmission on my scooby. It’s now even more ready than ever for endless snow-drift session.. but, f..reezing hell, where’s the snow? Well, I could just go to some motorshows then.. and that’s exactly what I did, visiting Essen as well as Luxemburg Motorshow on recent weekends.
