Gone is the Toyota/Lexus hybrid drifting car that Daigo Saito has been driven to his championship and many competitions.  2015 is the new year for the highly famed pro drifting driver to try out a new R35 GT-R car that will be his main drive in the 2015 season.

We cannot tell you how it will perform, but things are looking beefier, lighter, and generally very promising right now.  But you know, it will only come to the time when rubber burns the road in this case, that we can tell if the true test will reward Daigo's bold choice to another championship.

Here are some photos captured from the Formula Drift Tech Day when the apply the sponsor wraps on this new awesome drifting machine.

Car Console War Continues in Parallel Universes

Las Vegas, NV / W&HM Staff
At the 2015 CES, automobile accessories companies carried on the traditioal battle of the eelctronic console war, but also delivered the brotherly solutions, by having systems made for the two major systems, Android Auto and Apple Car Play.  Not all the vendors embraced this dual offering apporach, but then again, we don't expect the two will become the battle of VHS and Betamax, as both companies are literally the giants of the connected industry.

As we surveyed the majjor manufacturers with their own proprietary systems seem to slowly give way to these two ultra-consumer-friendly mainstreams.  The incredlbly big app markets and smaret phone integration just does not make sens to have a foriegn second system in the way, even though it's coming from the car's mothership...

We continue to motinor this war as it progresses.  If the history is a reference point, then it's a toss up... The left side driving vs right side driving is a proof, as well as stick vs automatic, and gas door on the right or on the left... Who know s what will happen...
