What a time to be alive. Seriously you guys really are living the life and it's great to see you enjoy the fruits of your hard work. I feel blessed to even see this stuff. How can you not be romantic about cars.
There is nothing more precious than Animals and Cars.. and Japan propably. 😄🖤 The deer Park is a real flash, what a beautiful place, and seeing the Race Car of the Drift King himself is so Epic.! 😄 Thanks again for the amazing stuff you Guys captured, just nice to see.! 😌👌🏻
Not really car related but I cannot NOT mention how clean the streets are compared to Vancouver. It's a night and day difference of how people care for the place they live in. Really enjoyed the video especially these long duration ones ❤
Watching from the Netherlands. Thank you, enjoyed part one too, a very special voyage and video series. It is awesome to learn more, seeing the cars, people and landscape 👍
Watching frame by frame because there is so much going on between these two uploads so far! Thank you for the excellent coverage of so many different car cultures at their very best! Great blend of life & machines. 🤝
I recognize Car Factory Ai from Slippery86's vids. He's another case of an Alexi falling in love with Japan through cars and moving there. He's a grassroots drifter, i would recommend his vids because they're chill and if you guys ever go back to Japan, you could maybe link up
You guys have the most chill and down to earth editing and videography style. I love it so much and I never thought I could enjoy such amazing JDM car content with that old school flare to it, please continue with these; its getting me so pumped to go to Japan and experience the whole thing!
Seriously such a cool trip, love all the shops you’ve visited and that pink s15 is quite literally something I would die for. Incredible job checkpoint ✨
Car Factory AI owner is woman that was classically trained by Keiichi Tsuchiya's original tuner that was the original factory tuner. Hence why his N2 car is there..... She came to Laguna Seca as well where I met her for the Historic Car race.
Hey guys, it’s a dream to go to Fujita engineering! Heading to Osaka next month and would you recommend using a taxi/cab from a train station to get to their shop?
We rented a car to get around on this trip as most of the shops and tracks are pretty out of the way from regular transit. Depending where in Osaka you’re staying a taxi would likely work, but I have a feeling it would be pretty costly. If you use transit there’s a good chance there will also be a lot of walking involved.
