Raidopower Motorsport 2010

So, I just sit here, with 2 days to departure .. Today I met up with  Arslan who made this page for me. We  met for the first time in person and it was a very professional and nice person who will be of great help during this year in Japan.

This picture from Elmia 2010,  where I sit together with Andreas, the owner of Raidopower, and team boss to Raidopower Motorsport. We met over the weekend down at Elmia and we talked a bit about the future and what we want to achieve together. More info about this in the coming months. But to throw in a little info about the news from Raidopower this year, I want to tell you this:

They have in the winter made a major investment in drifting into this summer and will have a team called Raidopower Motorsport. So long they put together 2 cars. A brand new Nissan S14 which is the one seen in the picture. It is built from the ground up with every detail necessary for a competitive driftcar. They have incredible number of hours in the car and it feels like a dream. The car will this year be a really fine car. The driver of the car is the awesome Olle Hällström and it will also be driven by the chief mechanic for the team, Tokan.

The second car they have in their team is a BMW M3 E36 which I unfortunately did not managed to get so much more info about, more than the superb Mikael ”Wunderbaum”  Svensson will drive this year, besides, Mike is one of the few in Sweden that made the sport to what is today . He is a very experienced guy who deserves all the attention he can get.

That´s a very good and interesting initiative which I will follow during the year. Hope it goes well for the boys and that I just  have to take a turn in one of their cars in 2011 if the situation looks as good then.

Please visit their new site, www.raidopowermotorsport.com , where you’ll find everything about their Team and where they can be seen in the summer. This page is still under construction but still worth a visit.

Want to  thank Raidopower for their great interest in my trip and hope this sponsorship leads to more good things in the future.

Next time I write, I will probably sit in my little apartment in Kyoto on the other side of the world.

So long/ Ken
