I watch D1 in Japan. Outside of Japan, it's very difficult to see these events, so I have to rely on p2p and youtube... as for Japanese Gran Turismo, it's very interesting, but I've seen only a few races.
Besides, I love motorsports and japanese cars! At the moment, I'm thinking about changing my car, and I would like to buy a japanese import (Honda s2000, mitsubishi gto or r33/r32 skyline), but they're very hard to find here in Europe. If I don't find them, I'll buy an RX8, the sexiest car in the world

Man I love D1, watch it on g4, but i was into the sport back when i did i study abroad in japan in 98. I also love rally circuit. I drive a 2.5rs subaru impreza (gc8) with slight mods. I am actually hoping that one day i can take a course some were on the east coast and maybe enter in a amateur rally time trial

awsome guys. anyone as mad as me that nomura (bnr32) doesnt have a shot at 1st place? i know i am.

as great as it would be to get a full JDM car over here to america, i dont think its going to happen anytime soon for me. i have to invest alot of money in the near future

but hopefully that money will be well spent and i will buy an evo 5 further down the line. that is after i finish my rb26dett swap into my datsun 240z

rb26 in the 240z should be pretty tasty, when you expect to have that done? a buddy of mine has a gc8 as well, nice cars..

I used to follow D1 a lot from 2001-2004 but kinda got bored of all the politics and stuff.

I still don't mind D1 street legal as I think you get a better mix of different cars and drivers, not just the same half-dozen names on the podium all the time.

You guys should check out MSC, its like D1 but with a nice mix of cars, lots of older stuff like JZX81 chasers, KE70 corollas etc. and team drifting

btw, nomura drives an R34Gtt Skyline, not a BNR32 (which is the chassis code of a Skyline R32 GTR)
