A new week of Speedhunting is about to kick off, but before we get stuck in, it’s time to take a quick look at some of the videos we’ve been checking out over the past seven days.
Let’s get things started with a clip from Toyo Tires, where you have control of the camera angle…
As far 360-degree videos go, the captured imagery from Masato Kawabata’s Team Toyo Tires Drift/GReddy Nissan GT-R at D1 Grand Prix Tsukuba Drift last month is as good as it gets. In this clip, Kawabata-san battles Hideyuki Fujino then Daigo Saito, and it’s during the latter tsuiso where things don’t go quite to plan.
Next up, it’s a new video from our friends at Mad Media featuring the Herbst Truggy. When you think of ‘Unlimited’ off-road rigs, this is a machine that rewrote the script; not only by challenging the Class 1 rulebook, but how exactly you go about building a Trophy Truck. Unfortunately, the legendary off-roader caught fire in April while competing in the NORRA Mexican 1000, but according to its maker, it’ll live to race another day.
When Geibunsha Japan drops a new Stance magazine clip, we’re always interested to see what it’s come up with. This time around, the focus is on something a little different from the slammed car norm -namely a Subaru SVX from the early-to-mid-’90s. You might be surprised at what Ignition Motor Group has created with this shining example.
Finally this week we have a short clip from Donut Media teasing Ryan Tuerck and Gumout’s new Toyota 86 build. This time it’s not a built 2JZ consuming the engine bay, but a Ferrari F136 V8. Yep, this “JDM Supercar” is going to be nuts!
As always, if you’ve watched a cool clip online this week, don’t forget to share it in the comments section below.
