D1 Drifting, Ebisu, Japan, 31-8-08
As the Japanese are the founders of drifting we thought it was about time we took a trip over to bring you
some of the original D1 action. Breaking the J44 record for the furthest away event (previously it was the Hawaii Motorshow) we set off to the land of
the rising sun for Round 6. The location was the Ebisu circuit which is based about two hours drive north of Tokyo.
Ebisu is an incredidly hard place to find as its based up a mountain with no sign posts. In fact it shares its location with an animal safari park!
Ebisu also hosts a total of five circuits including the monster drift track.
Saturdays action saw heavy rainfall disrupt the qualifying but thankfully the sun split the trees for Sundays action which was won by Kumakubo in his
Team Orange Mitsubishi Lancer Evo.

5) Tatsuya Sakuma TEAM TOYO S15 TEAM TOYO
