Originally posted by Craftsman BTW, how did you come up with the name of Topics II?
I'll handle this one for chris, cause he is probably busy. His older brother - Who is TopicsSenior on this board...well when they moved to Doylestown, Erik (his older brother) was put in Geometry Topics math class. Which was basically the *Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored* *Censored* math class. So he has been called Topics ever since. Well Chris is number 2, he's the little brother, and they are the best. So he gained the name Topics II. Its perfect.

The name actually started when topics senior would make profound statements about anything and nothing. and they referenced the name topics from his *Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored* *Censored* math class. so he was topics for almost a year. and my constant misuse of proper grammar earned me the name of topics junior, which turned to topics ii for short.
Another press type question (used to write for RPM Racing News magazine out of Latrobe, PA. Get used to it)
You made your name with the Motorex SR20DET powered 350Z, and are now piloting a Nissan Silvia under the Falken colors. Obviously, there's an apparent Nissan loyalty associated with your name. Have you or Nissan ever tried to capitalize on that, and have any other manufacturers or teams tried to sway you from that?

just a little something i want to point out.
it was never the MotoRex 350z nor was it ever the signal 350z, it was always the TopicsII 350Z.

Haha, Topics senior also use to wander off places randomly, so for a short period of time he was Wandering Is Topics...had to have misused grammar in there.
Sorry for leaving out the horrible misuse of grammar, that is what really makes the topics brothers the topics brothers.

Latrobe, PA!!! Having fresh Rolling Rock's right down the street must be pretty swell.
Ohh yeah, Nissan was a partial sponser for me this year, with just suppling factory nissan parts when needed. it was never more than that. i use nissans because they are proven to be some of the top drift cars, and i think the Z can now be known as a very competitive car after this year. And no, no other manufacturers have ever approached me to drive their factory car.

That is absolutely true, not to mention my designs were ripped off by the one.
Heh, never lived in Latrobe. I'm from Northeastern Ohio. That's just where the paper was.
And I pointed to Motorex as they were, if I'm recalling properly, a primary sponsor. It's akin to calling Jeff Gordon's ride the Dupont Chevy.
Not intended as an offense.
Building off your answer that Nissan did provide factory parts this year, will they be equally involved with your effort with Falken in 2005?
Also, do you feel Nissan would build towards a full factory effort as Ford, DaimlerChrysler, and Pontiac have done? Or do you think their support of drifting will remain more low key?

no problem

I do not know Falken's relationship with Nissan. But my relationship with Nissan in 2004 was through motorex. I do not believe that Nissan will build a factory backed car, because if you look at the entry list of any drift event, it is about 75% Nissan. what would they be trying to prove? They already dominate the drift world without spending the money, or the time.

If you meant black fc, then yeah. i never had a black fd. ive only had the fc before the z. i owned an fd for a week but decided to keep my fc once, and also owned an fc parts car for like a month. ohh yeah, when i was 16 i had a sweet a.s.s. blazer with 6 15" subs in it. it was pretty loud. and also the slowest car on the planet.
If I was to be a professional drifter, Wat do I have to do?
Right now im 14 in the 8th grade and I been learning about drifting since 2002, So when I get my car, should I enter in the D1 drivers search???
