A bit of a spirited drive down the Toyo Tires Turnpike, including the bit where the brakes get a little warm:

All the 86 Style at Fuji Speedway coverage. 370 pics so took me all day to sort out.

Accidentally finding one of three 'musical' roads in Japan.

A bit of a shock this one!

Undoubtedly my favourite day in Japan.

This is when we met with my Japanese friend who knew the top people in the AE86 world. Just fantastic and we had so much fun and even a welcome party!

Happy days!

86 Style at Fuji was just brilliant, but nothing could compare with the day I had with Akira and friends. Think Tec Arts, Kamata-San, then Tsukuba and Koshimisu-San ala KMS!

I will write up a blog but it's going to take a little time as I've got so many pictures and stuff to sort out and I wanted time to reflect on those two days particularly as there was just so much going on it was a little difficult to take in.

But just for fun, here's a very short vid on what can happen to your brakes on a GT86 if you hammer the Toyo Tires Turnpike!

A quick edit of the after effects of driving a GT86 hard down the Toyo Tires Turnpike.

Brakes got a bit hot:
