  11. Hello! I enjoy reading every month.Lately fellow enthusiasts around me are quitting.Some ask if being a street-car enthusiast is embarrassing.That makes me think,but I love cars and always admired this scene,so I want to keep enjoying it regardless of what others say.I may quit someday,but cars offer many kinds of enjoyment.I'll never stop loving them! C33NA,Toyota,Aichi.Editor:A quiet seaside morning near summer,you sometimes see an older man arrive with a longboard on his bicycle and go surfing.I admire that natural attitude.It would be great to enjoy drifting and modifying cars that way throughout life.I'd love to say,Drift is my life.
