Joe Manji Drift Day, Pt.1

卍卍卍卍 

No that isnt the swastika…. That is the symbol for Manji in Japanese. 

In New Zealand, there are a group called S-Club who organize Joe Manji Events for like minded people who like to Manji!

I went with 3 hours sleep, no food or water and forgot my helmet. Wasnt the most prepared to say the least. But had a very good time none the less! Missiles to “D1-Spec”, there were a variety of cars and talent but thats the best part of it!

There were a variety of cars the turned up to this event, which made for good viewing (although this was a private event) and the atmosphere was very friendly! 

One car in particular that was driven by alot of people from advanced to beginners was Hugo’s AT141 corona missile.

This is the car I featured before but since then, he had crashed at touge, then turned into a missile haha.
