The logo...












It's been around for a long time now.. I am not sure what your impressions are when you see the logo but I still believe it represents grassroots drifting.

Sometimes I forget but it eventually tells me where it needs to be.....

To everyone who likes Taka

Donate and support him! I know there is a lot of you guys that received help from him at one point or another. I think its time we show how much we appreciate all the hard work he has done for us...

-Remember those high 3rd gear courses at Fontana? Yep, that was Taka
-What about the course at Laughlin? Yep, that was Taka.
-You remember those days at Club4ag spending hours reading about his build up. Taka...
-How about the first Drift Day we had at Irwindale. Taka was there.
-What about the time you first complete the course? Taka
-Your first kiss? Taka (hopefully, not with taka)
-Remember when you got your driver's license. Yep, Taka again
-Your first A in high school? Need I say more?

Go to http://blog.driftpro.com and give lots of money!

Thank you and have a fantastic day!!

Too much drama!!!

Since there is soo much hate going on... I thought I would cheer everyone up with something that always cheers me up... Starbucks and Cigarettes

Dope.....

Taka.... This car is calling you!!!

Me and my uniques taste in cars..

As some of you guys may know, I am a true car guy. Not many people can really say that and even more people can't say they really built or designed anything special. Below are some samples of cars I have had fun building.. Most of them have a twist to them...

My current project is the Infiniti J30. This car is probably considered to be the ugliest car Infiniti has ever built but I took a chance and bought one.. So far, after lowering it and putting on some big wheels, I am starting to like the car. BTW, the Cressida you see in the background is KA powered!!!!














One of my favorite cars was the Infiniti M30 I built as a personal project. It was an SR powered M30 that Alex V and I built from scratch.. Fun times...
