There are car related things everywhere. Seriously. One of them is just going to Daikoku Futa PA (parking area) on any weekend. You'll see all sorts of stuff there..at night it's even crazier..as far as the drifting..well, it's all over, but you need to know somebody..it's not completely public knowledge and people don't go around telling everyone where to go. So my advice is to go to Daikoku meets some people then go from there.

Hahahaha, yep, that's me.

Daikoku isn't hard to find..just about everyone and their dog knows where it is. If you can find the Yokohama Bay Bridge then you'll find Daikoku (yes it's that easy!)...there are signs for the exit ramps.

I was raptor on MCF. What happened to it neways?

Thanks for your help. I'll try to find a way to get out there.

what is it like communicating in japan if you know little or no japanese i know in france if you struggle to ask a question in french most people will answer you in english :P

[DizyDrifter]

Though English is mandatory in grades 7-12 in japan, they do concentrate more on reading and writing it, rather than speaking. At least, thats what my japanese teacher told me. Having talked with a few japanese kids my age, it might be a little tough if you know no japanese, but a little will help. quite a few people do know english tho.
