We didn't intend for this week to be so dominated by Japanese cars, but when something demands your attention, sometimes you just have to share it.
We have long been a fan of the crazy world of bosozoku, as well as being intrigued by the lengths people go to one-up each other on more 'normal' rides, so imagine our delight when we find a bosozoku who is going directly for the craziest exhausts ever.

Unless something else earth shattering occurs we'll be bringing you some non-Japanese cars tomorrow!
