Just curious if any of the kanto area guys are hanging around with any clubs or groups of Japanese guys that actually go for drives instead of just meeting in parking lots smoking and then eating dinner. I dont get it all these guys build there cars with tons of aftermarket goodies but none of them seem to go to the track or atleast go for a spirited sunday drive or anything. I don't mind the meeting in parking lots deal once in awhile but is getting old now and I want to find some sort of group that actually uses the parts they have spent loads of money on.

Any suggestions?

 

I hang out with almost all Japanese guys and we get up early, go get breakfast, go to the track, eat dinner, and get home late. They have some top running cars...I'm about half way there. Some even trailor their cars. We do the talk thing but most of the times the meetings have a purpose. I'm away right now but when I return I'll hopefully be back at the track. Where in the Kanto Plains are you?

 

I am in north Saitama. Near Tsukuba, nikko, and honjo circuit. Mt. Tsukuba is also close. I have guys to go to the track with when there are track days but I miss just being able to call up a couple people and cruise the canyons all night or roll to vegas at 1am and then eat breakfast at 4:30am and then drive back home. People are so damn busy here hahaha. I am just ranting I really do like it here and am more than happy to meet up with any of the 7 guys around the area.
shoot me a pm when you get back in the area.

 

Circuit City, whatchya doing on this terrible site? Haha! I got your email last night, good stuff. BTW: I usually only cruise the "Other Rotary" section here. Way less attitude and an older crowd if ya know what I mean

Yeah, back when I was living in Iwakuni I was all happy to meet the Velocity guys since they were a local car club and had some nice rides. Turned out to be really nice guys but all we ever did was drive from rest stop to rest stop with a few quick runs inbetween. Mostly sitting around telling stories and drinking milk-tea. Utterly sad...

Go get some for me Tom!!! Seat time, that is.

 

you live near THE Tsukuba Circuit... that must be amazing to go see what kind of cars are racing once in a while !!

do you mind if i ask what was the reason of your moving from Nevada to Japan ??
what is your current job !??

 

NEVADA???
I have never lived in Nevada. Any how I am currently doing the teaching english thing although I am not to thrilled with the job. it is an easy way to get your visa here though. I also am selling parts and working at two shops when I have spare time.

 

about the Nevada thing its because of what you said in you other post :


ah yeah , they need a lot of teachers !?? do you need qualifications !??
i speak/write French (native language) & English. both of them perfectly !!
would i need to take a test here , or in Japan !?????
cause i have taken 2 special classes, one in sales, and the other one was to specialized in car sales.
so i guess i wouldnt have to much to worry for "on the side" jobs ...
i can do body work & a few things mechanicaly speaking. ( mostly on rotaries ).


how long have been to Japan !??

 

Circuit_Theory:
