Hilarious: Satoru Metal Tiger Lucky New Year knuckles

At February 14th the Chinese new year will start and as we all know the Chinese give each year a zodiac and an element. Upcoming year it will be the year of the tiger with metal as its element.

Satoru Works created some very special knuckles for upcoming year:

Yes, a set of Metal Tiger knuckles for your car to give it that extra luck during your drift sessions! ;)

Found at Doriten’s blog. If I understand him correctly the end result will not be a photoshopped image and will be available alongside their normal range of knuckles.

Hilarious: Midget II chicken race

This chicken race video is very funny to watch:

Apparently Gan-san’s reaction gets worse during the years: he doesn’t even manage to brake in time and stay within the marked area!

And you can even fit two people in it:

And if you thought those Midgets are for losers, how about this tuned Midget II sitting on a set of SSR Mk 1s?

I’d swap my Carina for that Midget II without hesitation! :D :D

Hilarious: Nissan Roox! Room to the Max!

Two days ago Nissan launched their new Kei car called the Roox. Basically it is the same old story of a shoebox size car on wheels. You may wonder how do they would actually sell such a thing! Well, this is the way to sell such a car in Japan:

Just show how big the car is by having a couple of kids (and a rabbit) dance inside it!

Damn catchy tune! I’ve already got it in my head after watching the commercial only three times! So if you still haven’t got enough of that tune and want to learn the dancing routine, watch this:

Both the car, the tune and the dancing reminds me a bit of all those daikoku futo dancers… Maybe that is the public they want to attract with this car. Somehow I can picture a Roox filled up with a bunch of speakers, neon and smoke machine! :D
