Videos: Hot Version (Japan) - Bugeye Love,

[jxkim]

I am sure some of you may have already seen these videos. They are all pretty entertaining. "Hot Version" for those that may not know is a Japanese car show involving tuned street cars. Keiichi Tsuchiya a.k.a. "Drift King" & Manabu Orido, both whom are pro GT racers in Japan, host the show. GT is in between nascar and f1. "Touge" is Japanese for "pass" and refers to the narrow mountain roads in Japan. Just like in Initial-D, which by the way Tsuchiya "Drift King" was a editorial supervisor on.
