Tokyo Auto Salon 2009
After this post where you could see the Sunline r35 and the MCR R35 getting ready to attack the Sendai Highlands circuit another picture came available, but this time with a other contender; It’s the Mine’s R35.
Exciting Car Showdown
alot of tuners in Japan are getting ready for the exciting Car Showdown that is going to take place this weekend, I hope I can show you alot of pictures if the cars and tuners that are going to be present. Tuners like Top Secret, Sunline and ATTKD are allready packing up their things to head up to Nagoya.
Sunline Racing is moving their Z Masters 350z and the R35 GT-R to the event. I expect that there will be alot of R35’s on display with some new modifications that we didn’t see yet.
The show is organized by Daijiro Inada, he is the founding father of the D1GP and the Tokyo Auto Salon. I like to see this as a smaller version of that show, there are always alot of new cars on display with exciting new stuff. I can’t wait.
Just got this information
Caught the Option Fuji TA session today during the HKS 35th anniversary event. Mine’s managed a 1:52.8 with the 35 while ATTKD took first spot with their 34 (didn’t catch the time).
Hope to show you some more pictures when they go online
JUN Option Stream Z
I guess alot of you guys already know this car. But I still like it for what is was made. The car was build for Daijiro Inada (founder of D1GP and Tokyo Auto Salon) to compete in the Silver State Classic Challenge. This challenge covers a 90 mile long ‘track’ where your highest speed will be recorded. In 2005 this car was totaled as you can see in the movie and the picture.
Daijiro got out of the car uninjured. That’s really something if you look at the movie and see the inside of the car. JUN has build this car with a FIA approved rollcage and that saved Daijiro’s live.
The car crashed because the front Michelin tire blew.
