What's remarkable about this is that Forrest Wang is one of OUR best drifters at Drift Session. When the track closed, he made his way to the mainland and has been busting his azz consistently...and he's beaten some of the best now.

Pretty awesome work for Forrest. He builds his own cars, too. The dude is incredible.

A shame about Team Orange though...that's a pretty ugly bruise. From what I was told, they were pretty nice guys. I've met Kumakubo, Tanaka, and Nomuken. They were cool when we were in Japan and Vegas.

Actually, I was more ragging on D1GP USA than Team Orange. When you have show car folks try to run a legitimate racing series, chaos ensues.

I don't really think Team Orange gives a shit about US D1.......seriously. Now Japan... is a different story.

I was reading that it looked like Tanaka won? I'm sure that would upset them..

And no, I'm not really interested in D1USA either. I am a rabid fan of the original D1 though. I've got almost every single VO and DT that's come out...all the way back to the early 90's.

Granted...most of them are downloads.
