kumakubo, tanaka and asamoto all came over (and still do) thanks to APC

as far as the Pac Rim car. its MT and its drifting by Daijiro, who has been driving it since drivers search last year (august)

he's a super nice guy a great driver.


remove the dildo from your ass please.
dam fool. Like I didn't know this? Yeah sure it's great that APC is paying for all their cool shit, and they get to drift for a living. Blah, blah, blah. Not hating on the drivers what so ever. I don't have anything against the Pacific Rim car either. Sponsorships are nice. But companies like APC are putting up the skrilla for this because they are intent on helping the drift community? Obviously with every business partnership, there is a benefit for both sides, but the fact that APC has been trying so hard to promote this has not impressed me at all. I still don't give a fuck. Their intentions are to make the drift scene as popular as possible so they can reap as much profit as possible. I'm not alone in this view. APC was a company that built it's way up taking advantage of the market and prospering on the uninformed consumer. They could at least try to make quality cheezy products. If they were seriously contributing to this sport we all so love, then maybe I would keep my load mouth and opinionated mind to myself. I see beyond the heavy promoting and ass kissing APC is doing for the Drift community. Once this market is no longer profitable, they will drop it for another. I have heard talk about APC making quality drift products, but have yet to see any. Talk is cheap as everyone knows. APC has not done anything to demand respect for themselves anywhere in the automotive industry, yet when they shell out the money they made taking advantage of it, you expect people to drop their pants? Business is cruel, and yes money talks, but I am a firm believer in respect and honor. Sell out.
