Land of the Drifting Sun

Episode #6012

After hitting the Land of the Rising Sun for Tokyo Auto Salon, Big C goes back to Osaka for Round 2 to learn how to drift from the originators of the sport. Armed with Japanese import model and umbrella girl Mayumi as his translator and guide, Big C meets up with Kazuya "Chunky" Bai once again, a notoriously famous drift icon known for his wild hair and even wilder technique. There, they have his JDM spec Silvia automobile ready and waiting for its final touches before hitting the track. But before he can actually learn how to slide, C must prepare himself to conquer driving on the right-hand side of the vehicle in the streets of Japan. He also visits Super Star, who builds him specialized rims for his drift ride. This episode is part one of a two part series.
