Buzz about this past weekend's Japanese Classic Car Show in Long Beach has been spreading all over the internet like wildfire over the past few days. Earlier today Richard S. Chang posted a piece on the New York Times automotive blog about the growing popularity of older Japanese cars. The piece touches on the JCCS and this summer's Motoring J Style event, among other things. The Japanese Nostalgic Car site is mentioned as well as my post on this very site about the appearance of classic Japanese cars in ads. I thought it was awesome to see this site mentioned in the article. Thanks a lot Richard!
On another note, I came across some brilliant photos from the Night Fight drift event from the Teesside Autodrome in the UK. The event featured the top drifters from the UK against those from Ireland. It's hard not be jealous of the UK (and Aussie) fellas for having access to so many great Japanese cars that are not (legally) available in the states.
Head on over to the Drift Works forums to see the rest of Paddy McGrath's wonderful pictures.
