Page 55 — English draft translation

There were plenty of popular four-door sedans, Silvias, 180SXs and AE86s. But we also saw cars rarely encountered in drifting: Datsun trucks, Lancer Turbos, KP… You do not often see them even at circuit track days, so it feels unique to the street. Another recent trend is the increasing number of women drivers. There seemed to be three or four women at this spot, and their driving was every bit as good as the men’s. BM will keep supporting women street racers!
