    There's a funny bit when he's talking about the signature that I don't think got translated. Ryota says
    "The guy I sold it to promised to never sell it, so he asked me to sign it".
    Only made it three years before bringing it to auction, haha.

    I LOVE how nerdy and passionate you are about this stuff, because its the same stuff i love.
    I cant imagine what a trip it must be for him to see a car rebuilt but also preserved (through using as many parts off the original shell as possible) 20 years later on the other side of the planet with a bunch of guys who are so passionate about it
    Thankyou for keeping a piece of drifting history alive. And telling the stories and documenting them so we can continue to look at them going forward ❤️

    Wow what a video, I will always like the big name guys like Alonso, Block, Earnhardt, Force, McRae, Senna, Schumacher, Tsuchiya, and Verstappen. But sometimes guys like Yuasa remind you how an inspired individual makes such a big splash in the small pond of Motorsport. I’m glad I could buy some merch to help thanks for setting up some really cool content.

    Some pieces of metal make us happier than we can imagine. Sitting here in Germany and just feeling the passion and love for a project like Yuasa's. I was and still am very happy with my purchase, this video just made me regret not buying more.
    Thanks for taking us along Neil

    This is incredible Neil. Just fucking incredible. You're writing your own history here, linking the early drift scene in Japan to the modern drift scene in the west, one piece at a time.
    I get what you mean by your goal of making bigger things happen now that you've gone full time. If this is the kind of events you've got in your head I am so on board and my eyes will continue to stay inherently glued on Mondays ❤️

    That car has aged so damn well, It still looks absolutely incredible today! Compared to the tuning scene of the early 2000s of modifying peugeot's and citroens and whatever this car still looks good today, In my eyes it literally looks perfect, I love everything about this car, The bodykit, wheels and the livery all go together so well. I still remember when I first saw this car in the JDM option d1 films, It always struck out to me from the rest of the cars.

    What a lovely story. A car that you really lived with or put a lot of yourself into can become such a strong access point into a past time of your life, so I'm not surprised that Yuasa-san was a bit mind-blown by it (through jet lag too, no doubt), reliving all that stuff. This is all so cool. Top work for putting this moment together.

Also the way he gives you some cred to your absurd amount knowledge is so true, you know the most wild & weird things about these cars & its a treat when all that come out when you share these stories through the videos.
