I finally found some video footage of the Carina AA63 I spotted each year at the MSC Inland Sea round!!
The car is not doing bad at all but he still lacks something. He misses the apex with a meter and doesn’t really keep his angle right, so it is just that his lines are a bit too wide I guess…
From its appearance it really looks like an 80s grachan zokusha! It has got an oil cooler sticking under its front bumper, it has the wild painted colors and a big banner on the front screen!
This is the car competing in round 12 in 2006:

Apparently the guy is local: I’ve never seen him competing outside the Inland Sea rounds. And the nice thing is he competes in that round every year!
This is the car competing in round 8 in 2007:

He always enters the Expert SD class but never manages to qualify for the best 12…
This is the car competing in round 4 in 2008:

Unfortunately there is still no complete photo page of round 11 of 2009, so we will have to wait for the 2009 photo a bit longer I guess…
Judging by the way he took that corner I would hazard a guess that the whole outside is an outer clipping curve and they have to apex the entry and exit corners. Looked pretty sweet to me, though I do prefer watching retro’s drift.
hey.. gud video and info
