Someone suggested today on Facebook that we should rename the site, Drifthunters…. they do have a point I suppose. We do love our drifting…..

Hmmm so here is yet another drifting video.. this one is quite different though from anything we've done previously. This is a Japanese street drift car typical of one that you would find drifting at Ebisu circuit in Japan on any given weekend….

One thing we noticed when we visited Ebisu Circuit this past August was the sheer number of girls drifting cars… Ok not crazy numbers but they are more present in Japan than in any other western drift scene.

So we thought we'd find a girl who could kinda speak english to show you her car and make a film… Her name is Akiyo…. I'm sure we'll have Facebook fanclubs starting up before long!
Enjoy… and for those of you who have had enough drifting… the next film will DEFINTELY not be about drifting….. we promise!

OFFICIAL SPEEDHUNTERS SUPPLIERS
i love this kind of coverage. MORE VIDEOS!
english is great
very good
nice video! i like to see grassroots more both here and japan
its a nice change of pace from teh FD/D1 coverage
What a cool chick! Clean car, good driver skills. Yeah, more vids of street drivers who are living it up Speedhunter style.
Sweet video. I always loved the grassroots in Japan. They have such baller circuits over there. By any chance would you guys happen to know what exhaust she was running its sounds like pure sex and I am looking for something to slap onto my RB.
haha that was really cool. You guys should do these driver profile type things. And that chick is cool. fill up that washer fluid.
cool video. u guys need to interview the girl who owns the 3rd gen celica with the "TEQ" toyota vinyl on the hood. her car is so sick!
awesome.
THIS is why i've checked this site every day since its inception (and also every day in anticipation before the launch, actually =p). i haven't been able to find such cool coverage anywhere else.
between these exclusive looks at small-time drifting, and mike's always-amazing photography (not to mention his story telling), this is one of my favorite sites ever.
i hope other groups can follow in your footsteps, having several sites like this would be insane.
keep it up!
Awesome Video!
She is so cool!!!
this is great! An interesting idea for you guys would be to maybe (if possible) showcase some grassroots drag/drift/autocrooss/rally drivers skills through vids like this!
Nice coverage here, far more interesting than Pro drifting!!
You guys need to make more videos like this.
More vids like this !
v. interesting vid.
I think Ive just fallen in love with her
Great vid guys!
Cool chick indeed. Grassroot rules. Notice the classis "japanese" style helmet !!!! Every amateur sport that in Japan. No fancy Arai/ Shoei with Cara-coat visor....just a simple helmet, and some dickes !! Hell yeah.
Awesome video, ebisu always looks great imo!
I want more grassroots coverage please!!!
Girls are always hot when it comes to JDM!
This girl is ace. Love her R32 too. The pair of em are beautifully understated.
very kool post
Really, really cool!
Her personality and the fact tha she is so articulate in English makes her ever cooler!
Awwww, that was adorable.
i gots a boner from her clutch kicking. cool video!
I love her reason for drifting. Drifting is cool. Why wouldn't you do it, lol. Awesome vid. Clean car.
Girls drifting? Hella awesome! There needs to be more of that in the U.S.
That 32 is nice, a cool 4 door and those RPF1s look clean

More chicks drifting. I need to find (or train) a chick to do this, talk about bonding! My Mom used to drag race a 70's celica with my Dad back before I was born, I need a woman like this in my life!
The girl is so cute, it's a pity that there are no much drifting actions in this video.
Best explanation of why someone is drifting I have ever heard!
Anybody knows the name of the background song?
Cool video!
A bit cliche' but "I drift, therefore I am".....lol
Someone makes a t-shirt already.

Her pose reminds me of Oka-Chan from Yashio Factory.
this was really cool
she's cool
r32's cool
drifting's cool
Why the need for subtitles? You can understand her perfectly, unless you're a yank, who is alien to anything non-American.
good concept, and great quality with really nice camera gear but the video was boring.
austin said this girl can drift!!!!
man, 4 door R32's are sweet.
D.P=Drift Prince....
Akiyo rules. I like this video Rod. Notice how she points out that the seat is good for women (not girls).
this is very very cool
any in car video shots?
Whats the name on the song in this video it was awesome
