OTWeb: C34 R34

By
October 1, 2010

Going through some of my JDM dailys and came across this C34 Laurel with a Stagea front. At first glance I was like, “hey, nice R34 sedan on white Te-37”, but then I saw the lines of the car were completely off from the hood back.

Then I saw the ass. A Laurel with a 34/Stagea front. Pretty damn clean conversion if I’d say so myself.

We’re gonna take you there and to the 60’s with this week’s edition covering the infamous MoonEyes 1960 Toyota Crown! (Be sure to click on the Magazine pix so you can read it!)

Event Coverage: An XDC Round 5 Preview

By
September 27, 2010

This past weekend I made my way out to Fort Worth Texas for the 5th round of XDC. I’m not going to lie, I was pretty stoked for the event being that a national drift circuit hasn’t touched base on Texas soil in over 3 years. The weather however was not very welcoming as we arrived on track day as a band of rain happened to sit its ass right on Fort Worth for about 12 hours. The rain did eventually stop however right when the event started started and everything proceeded on schedule. There were some pretty clean cars out there and some unexpected results in this round of the drift circuit. All of which I will get to in part one. Until then, take a brief look at what was going on this weekend at XDC rd. 5.

Plenty of People rocking CCWs nowadays, but this IS pulled it off really nice.

The Rain stopped, and people rolled out to scope whips and cheer their local drifters go into battle.

They also come out to watch tow trucks race ambulances around the track.
