    Very nice, that's awesome.

    Who designed it? I've always wondered who's responsible for the design work of those cars, in my limited experience designing drift paint schemes in Forza2 I've come to appreciate the extensive covering even more.

                Damn, he's only 21! The pressure must have been absolutely incredible when he made that first pass. The car slid right towards the wall. Hope to meet him one day! I'd kill to drive like that.

                  Those cars look redonkulous and I love it. I like that fact that if a similar vinyl scheme was applied to say a civic, it'd totally be fuh-raze and ricey, but since it's on a sick ass drift car, it makes it that much cooler. Fucking sick work doggie!

                    I know the pain of spending hours on vinyl, it's not easy.

                    Needless to say your experience looks to have really paid off on those cars Jon.

                        That Kouki is super hot. I love all the Vinyl work, especially the chick with the katana out behind her. Phucking sublime man, thats all I can say.

                          Yeah, here's what happened.

                          Friday practice - tranny goes out, go back to shop, replace.
                          Saturday morning practice - diff goes out, go back to shop, bring diff replacement. replace just in time for first qualifying run.
                          Saturday afternoon - first run, clutch goes out, goes straight into wall. bye bye car!

                              Before an event like that I would suspect that everything would be new or checked over to prevent this?

                              And props on your graphics here is a lil bit of my graphic work.

                                That car looks like it is probably pretty fast and pretty furious. But seriously though, that engine bay is sweeeeeet. Nice work dood on them stickers. I REALLY like the maple on the top.
