On weekends I go to the local forest road, and sometimes I drive at Bihoku Highland Circuit. I’ll keep practicing and get better! This is rain drifting. We’ve had sand drifting this time, and now rain drifting too—what variety! It may not be directly related, but as the editor responsible, I’m happy.

This is a snapshot from a local mountain pass. There are better drivers around here, so I’m practicing to keep up. I’ll do my best without wrecking the car! The team name is a fun one, and the driving is nice, too.

Masami Naito A smooth, stylish run!

These photos were taken at Tajimi Community Land. Please support Team Daring Works from here on, too! P.S. Take-chan from P.S. Flabber Gast, you made it into the magazine…

…you got in!

That’s a stable, impressive drift. I like how relaxed you look behind the wheel. Keep it up with your friends.

I injured my back after I started drifting. I also broke some ribs at the time, but I still gave it everything. That sounds rough. You can’t tell from the photo. Heal up, and show us your drifting when you’re back in full form.

Respectfully yours

I took this when I went to Nikko. I haven’t practiced much lately—what do you think? Best wishes to Team SPARK. Hmm, it’s a little short on impact. That’s judging only from the photograph, though… There’s still a nice, smooth feel to it, and you can tell the driver knows what they’re doing.
