I love Final Bout, but have you ever been to Japan? This looks nothing like what they do over there. People just say that because they think this is what the Japanese guys do. Sent from my iPhone

No, but i've followed the Japanese automotive and drifting scene from the late 90's. And what I meant by my comment is that most of the cars at final bout have Japanese inspired looks, which is what final bout is all about..... right? the first pic of the silver and white hatch look like something out of one of my D & D magazines from japan

Final Bout: Special Stage
My apologies then. THAT picture is exactly what you would see. Usually a bit more beat up though. Way too many people get caught up in the whole team concept and they think everyone's cars look top notch like Animal Style. There are obviously your famous teams that are very well known and basically have celebrity status in the drift world (burst, a~bo moon, etc.), but Final Bout is cool because it's regular ass people building too notch cars and holding events.
To be brutally honest, a good portion of the normal populace there have drift cars that look as bad or worse than some of the missiles we have here.

Wow talk about a perfect backdrop for all these cars, PARC must have been fun. I'm pretty hype on the scott mitchell video.
I'm spectating SSE, anyone else planning to camp? |

PARC is the local track, and this was hands down the best event I've ever attended there. Cool to see so many people and cars you'd only otherwise see on the internet/social media. I took quite a few photos, and will try to upload soon.
Everyone looked comfortable on the track quickly. Gold Star and BLVCKMOON cars are so rad in person. ShaDynasty driving was consistently impressive.. I'm looking forward to more and more footage of driving being released, so people can shift their focus toward that and away from all the negativity surrounding that incident involving "jake from state farm".. It really takes away from how awesome the event really was. |

Watched the snaps, driving looked rad.
98% of the cars were rad. Not sure why everyone likes Julian's S14.5 or that URAS kitted S13, both are notches down from what they used to look like IMO.

I'm not a fan of the front bumper on the 14.5. The nose part sticks out too far for my tastes. Still a cool car none the less.

RIP to another zenki. They all go kouki or S15. His car is still super cool though. The racing line bumper for the S15 does look oddly shaped, i thought I was the only one that thought that.

wheel wasn't tightened down, came off, made the car launch up in the air, and also punched up into the floor of the trunk, ejecting the battery (there are photos of the inside of the trunk, where the battery USED to be, and its smashed upwards at least 6")
dude got out, super pissed off and threw a tantrum (understandable given the circumstances) anyone else it wouldn't have been as big a deal, but since jake is already well known/disliked on the internet, shit took off and the memes went viral. by the end of the day he had fixed it and was back on course laying down some pretty impressive and smooth runs though. |

^^ thats the whole truth.
There also was a tie down on it, well it was sitting on the track when I got to it, but it got ripped out. Also the reason there are pics with only 3 lugs on it is we removed lugs from other wheels to get it off the track. And yea the damage to the car was way worse than you'd imagine from a wheel just falling off, his initial rage is because it looks/looked like the frame could be all twisted up, but he's got it at a body shop, we'll see what happens.
