I'm not a rice rocket fan by any means, but I happen to know that the guy driving that Skyline is a Japanese drifting champion, I think he might even be world champion. A couple of my friends went to Irwindale over the weekend to see the races (one of them is a true F1 fanatic/expert). They were expecting some stupid ricer cars, and he came back with a ton of pics/videos completely blown away. Those guys driving skills are closer to a WRC/F1 driver that you would think. They're doing slides with these cars at 100mph +, standing with the door open outside the car saluting the crowd. I couldn't believe it myself, but no matter you were driving it would have been really hard to beat that guy's skills. As far as the car it's ok, it's probably very fast, and in my opinion is not any uglier than a 996.
