It would be so nice to be able to switch from RWD to AWD on the fly...

It's good to see they do their testing on a closed course. LOL. Wonder if they'll put a "do not do this at home" disclaimer on that video after the first 19yr old Evo owner kills himself trying to do the same stuff in his AWD Evo in the Costco parking lot.

just to point it out, since no one said anything yet. It's an EvoIX and LeftHandDriving. Either they imported that way or modded

I read that the new Fast and Furious 3 movie was being filmed in Japan also, and was about drifting...

And Rhys Millen did the stunt driving in Dukes of Hazzard, not 2F2F...There wasn't any stunt driving to do in that movie...

I guess that is a bonus of owning your own property, police couldn't do **** to him since its his parking lot. that was amazing to say the least...

And whoever said the BMW is worth $90K...RIGHT!! You couldn't buy 2.5 of them for that price...7 series aren't that expensive.
Regardless, it's a 7 series BMW with a $70k+ price tag.

about time they make an evo drift car. errr atleast make a RWD one to compete in D1! or they should! [might as well since they have all these 9 converted here in the US] Yukes has already picked up Kumakubo to drift their D1 spec STi drift car this year! and rumors say theres gonna be an R34 GTR [which is stupid in my opinion] but its another AWD converted to RWD competing in this years D1!

i swear if D1 didn't ban AWD from their competition Rhys would've dominated with a rally spec evo! i remember seeing him drift his rally spec evo7 for a quick demo and he was just tearing up the track!
