KP61 Toyota Starlet Drift Machine

toyota_starlet_kp61_drift_iwai
Teruyoshi Iwai campaigns one of the coolest D1GP cars around, a KP61 Toyota Starlet stuffed with a 4AG with TRD and Silk Road suspension components. Apparently Iwai made his triumphant return to D1 in Round 5 at Ebisu Circuit, but was easily eliminated by the newer, more powerful competition. Clearly, though, Iwai is the champ when it comes to style points.

UPDATE: Video after the jump.

    A lot of skill there, that short wheelbase can be tricky.

    I can remember salivating over this Starlet on the Neo-Force website years ago. IMO, the only thing that looked cooler was the *Z10 Soarer which was also owned by a member of Neo-Force- it looked absolutely fantastic. Not that it takes anything away from the Starlet though (I love it too).

    I drive a kKP Starlet….yeah its very trick to drift especially on a high speed drift…but on low to mid speed…only AE86 could match the KP61.
