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.

1) Nobushige Kumakubo ORC YUKE'S Cusco Lancer
2) Youiti Imamura Sylvia
3) Takahiro Ueno TE3006 SUIBASOARA
4) N. Nakamura S15 Team KOYORAD
5) Tatsuya Sakuma TEAM TOYO S15 TEAM TOYO
