The site has been in the works for a while now, and is finally up, going through testing stages. Not everything is operational, but will be soon. It will be geared to the drift/touge coverage crowd, and we will be featuring a couple of S13 build-ups. It's not a commercial site, but just a hobby. So, take a quick look if you have time, and if you like it/dislike it, post and explain why. Also post any bugs you may find.

Also, I wrote the first feature, so critique that and let me know what you think of the writing style. It was done in a hurry, so let me know what you'd change.

Thanks,
Vadim

Well, there's not really anything there yet...but for the look i'd say it's great. Did you take the pic used on the main page and for the header on the rest of the pages? Just wondering...
As for the 1st feature, umm well written, you don't want me to comment further.

Wish I could design a site that looks like that...

That is one wicked splash screen. Should make that a wallpaper without the "Enter".

Otherwise, the dark red text on red is hard to read. I need something with a little more constrast. Otherwise, lookin' good.

Ill give you a truthful raiting, i do websites for a living partaly and im going to school for it, so ill give you my personal oppinon.
-When going to the enter site i was imedietly draw to the site, i hit enter
-When entering the site i was pleased with the simpless of it all, and it was detailed enought to keep my attention.
-The content is minimal but im sure it will grow in time, im very impressed with the site itself.

I only have one recomendation, use PHP much faster and much easyer :-D

That is real nice so far. I can not wait until more content goes up there as well as the forum.

I am looking forward to learning a lot about drifting and have already set this in my favorites.

Thanks, keep 'em coming. I'm not doing the web programming part, so I'll just send this link to my friend in charge of it, and have him look at the reviews. The page loads slow for you guys? Weird... Even on 56k it loaded fast, with the only slow part being the opening splash page...hmmm.

Once again, thanks,
Vadim

MAke sure to specify the sizes of your images in your HTML. This will allow your pages to draw faster and the images won't look funky when loading. otherwise the site design looks great.

-jeff

IE specify both the width and height :) not just one or the other

or was this look intentional?

Looks good. My only suggestion is to use a dark grey text instead of the red. Other than that looks good, really dug the splash screen.

I digressed earlier from the topic (I do that a lot :) ), but I checked out the site and I must say that I love it! The only thing I would change is the lettering; you should make it a little brighter.
