worst nightmare to be stuck on a corner like that.. handled it well man. it's okay to be "That guy" if it means avoiding another wreck

[@iCrapBubbles]

They all stopped what they were doing as soon as they saw him, some even put their hazards on. Everybody knows that they're out there to have fun and it's better to be safe than to be sorry.

[@tracklizard4018]

Didn't handle it well at all imho. Don't go on track, there's a crash barrier + a path next to it you can use.

[@jukebox9175]

he went behind the barrier lol@@tracklizard4018

[@Ikaros---]

He could have jumped the barrier a bit earlier, but he put himself at risk to avoid other people damaging their cars and potentially getting injured

[@tracklizard4018]

@@Ikaros--- You don't exit your vehicle but if you do you run to the crash barrier and stay behind it until rescue arrives. This also shows how poorly organised the event was. There wasn't a functionary on that corner which there should've been or even a number to call in case of emergency.

[@desupageweb]

that corner WAS a lot more tighter than it looked 😂 thanks for the ridealong man

That was definitely scary af, not to mention being unable to move on blind corner too. Thank God everyone spotted you and avoided another crash.

[@zzyzx0069]

"I dunno if I wanna do Gunsai again." Oh you'll be back, you'll miss it too much. The fear will still be there and you make sure that shifter bolt is extra tight. But you'll be back.

[@pinkyfull]

I mean extra tight has problems of its own as it can shear the bolt. But still, scary stuff.

[@EnhancedTrashBin]

@@pinkyfull the problem with tighting stuff...can't over tighten but can't lightly tight either. Maybe try threadlock?

[@Nezzero_is_Ryan]

4:20 is a perfect example if why I love Japanese car culture, no kids running over with phones screaming, just like-minded enthusiasts making sure everyone is okay and then helping to get the car back on it's feet. All with a smile and a couple of jokes.

[@Chris-hw4mq]

spoiled brats have no respect for car culture they just what to show off their cars

[@rolux4853]

That’s the way it is n Europe too! Also in the USA when your surrounding yourself with the correct people. The shouting phone kids usually are of a very specific inner city type…

[@NesLightGun]

Screaming kids with phones are hard to avoid in cities. If you go to the right places its all cool.

[@killerhurtalot]

You now what this is called? a closed off course lol. This is the norm on closed courses... The stuff you're talking about happens when dumb people takes this to public roads.

Such a wild day! No idea how we came out of that with cars in one piece

[@tinystar3010]

Almost all cars, that one S15 flipped on its roof, another S14 looked to be smashed on the front. But at least all people were in one piece! No injuries from what we can tell.

[@boat378]

God damn I was SO stressed listening to the tyres screeching just around the corner. Glad you guys are safe!!!

[@Sturmovik1946]

This is some serious grassroots style car event, amazing. It probably isn't a bad idea for them to have a couple flaggers in the corners but otherwise a fun looking event.

[@marcom5500]

The amount of control these guys have to not hit you is seriously impressive! It sucks to be THAT guy, but it was a mechanical error and you handled it well despite the danger of running on the track ;)

[@aeon7748]

The environment, the car, the noise and the road with the sunrays through the tire smoke, it's like heaven to me.

[@GTSaint3s]

Refreshing yt and seeing a 1 minute old Noriyaro video gave me the strength I needed to attack the day. Good morning!

[@BboyMopTop]

Good to see the other side of drifting when things don't go as planned haha. Glad you and everyone else was okay that day what a day!

[@memenationalcentre]

‘On this episode’ SKIDS cool

[@Vapourdave]

Gunsai is so damn gnarly. Mad respect to anyone who risks it!

[@lostpopcorns]

the sunlight shining through the tree tops, godrays hitting beautiful drifts in a beautiful touge setting. that was cinematic. true kino.

[@LooseFab]

I would love to do this sort of driving in my ae86 someday!!

[@JustASimpleGuy]

This was a much needed video and man when you were stranded my anxiety went through the roof when you was on the road but glad to see everyone do they part

[@kelvinanjos]

14:19 damn, that thing sounds like a beast

You handled that like an OG. Major props.

he is definitely one of the OG hehe

[@gaetawars]

Going through the crash site, reminded me of Dom terreto figuring out how Letty crashed.

[@240Trevor]

I’ve always wanted to visit gunsai but man it looks sketchy. Glad the s15 survived.

[@JamieTenikoff]

Banger video as always. Geez, seeing everyone flying around that corner would've been unnerving to say the least!

[@MrAgentEcho]

I love that they all understand the etiquette of it all. You're telling them to stop, they all stop and slow down.

[@simonwatling2203]

The sun rays through the trees and the smoke... beautiful

[@jessellechocolate8200]

damn glad you guys are okay. it's amazing that everyone was aware and you were able to get towed out after a bit.

Yikes! 😮 What a crazy day! Glad nobody was hurt! Thanks for sharing your adventures!

u have no idea how much it means to me right now to watch a new vid today. ty man

[@EastSlideKillah]

Thank you for making the videos and always making safety awareness priority. You are a blessing to us with broken cars.

[@pfunkle]

My favorite map in assetto corsa 😍 I typically time attack it with the nd2 Miata, but it looks crazy awesome to drift those sections!

[@ThatSlowBRZZ]

at least the transmission lives!! man my heart was racing when you were sitting in the S15 waving the cars down, I'm sure I don't even feel half of what you did 😂

[@Drifyre]

What a good morning. Noriyaro and one of my favorite itashas

[@NcPGaara]

Jeez that was a spicy day to say the least. Can't imagine a better unlucky day, considering the most important thing; no one got hurt! You know you will be back to Gunsai some day Alexi! Just gotta make sure that bolt is tight from now on! :)

[@shlahms4497]

dude ive been watching for a long time and you always drive in a reserved way and this has to be the scariest thing ever

[@Verociity]

your post mortem analysis of the crash scene evidence was spot on, great insight.

[@LowEndPCGamer100]

lol glad dude made it out of that roll ok, thats more than likely decent practice combined with decent build effort there too, along with some serious luck on top, everyone deserves to live to drift another day! glad to see everyone had fun and made it home out there!

[@LanceLikesCars]

You and Robbie should do a collab video sometime, you guys are my two favorite KZbinrs. Definitely the most authentic that I’ve found.

[@ArkaynAdrian]

Alexi, I dont think i could watcht that again. Gunsai is cursed enough and seeing the carnage results for some and the dangerous circumstances you and your passenger were in when the gearbox went, i felt like i was gonna die and I wasn't even there. So grateful you (and your passenger abd the 15) are safe mate.

[@lulzgam3r]

The amount of intense fear I had watching you just be stuck at that corner is unreal. My transmission just failing is one of my deepest fears while out on American roads.

[@StanleyTF22]

Hello noriyar0!!! I have recently found your channel mabye 2-3 weeks ago and usually i cant find good channels that really show drifting but your actually amazing ive been binge watching your videos with my dad and actually keep up the AMAZING work

[@cyclonicleo]

Well, just another excuse for some upgrades hey! Sorry kids, no university funds for you, Dad needs a new transmission and diff for the Silvia.

May not be the safest but was the best call for avoiding an accident for both yourselves and the guys driving.

Watching the cars come in towards you, even if they arent drifting, they’re still incredibly fast going straight. SCARY.

[@0xGRIDRUNR]

super glad to hear the red s15 driver is okay, his roof looked super crushed in

[@Ali4994]

Good to see some situation education. Things happen in the moment and it's good of you to address it 👍

[@katmanco3699]

Gotta love the community of drifters actually paying attention when flagging them down. Kudos.

[@spicec0rp]

Man your engine bay looks sick, those kuroworks parts really fancy it up, also goddamn what a crazy spot to lose power. I could feel the fear, but it's amazing you got out without getting hit

[@aprtur]

Good lord, I'm sure that stressed you the hell out....but on the plus side, everyone was safe and it looks like it's a fairly straightforward repair, at that. Maybe good peace of mind to throw one of those LED flares in the glovebox if you're going to Gunsai? On the flip side, the car sounds great! Love that you've kept it simple and fun rather than going full-on D1 build on it... hopefully you're enjoying it more that way

[@jonathanbchambless]

bro oh holy cow. I'm so glad ya'll are safe and back at the shop.

[@imnicelikethat]

Omg I can feel how tired both mentally and physically you are at the end of the video LOL thank god everyone's okay. It was like an actual movie scene!

[@nbassett090]

In UK we have a thing called hillclimbs on roads like that. They use Marshalls dotted along the course. Each with line of sight to the next guy. That way if there is a crash they can red flag straight away. Looks like this is needed here to prevent issues like what you saw. Marshalls tend to volunteer also, so it's not a big cost to the event.

[@SashaFujiwara]

The thing that amazes me about Japan is that they build gorgeous cars just to smash them doing touge drifting

[@CarAndMechanical]

I was stressed watching that, glad you are ok but can only imagine how that was to go through...

Typical day of motorsports. Its nice to see this kind of content too, because its not all fun and games.

[@radicaIized]

[@KnallenN]

If someone is gonna be mad at you for being "that guy" they sure as hell would have been even more mad if they crashed. Shit happens, you handled it well enough considering there are no marshals

Always fix it and drive it home, this is the way. Unless you physically can't, but that looked like you could do it through the cab if you were tenacious enough, at least enough to get you home.

[@Orzorn]

One of those days where Lady Luck decides to screw everyone over. Glad you're safe!

[@cwhitley.sawlabs]

I feel like maybe it'd be a smart idea to have some volunteers as "flag wavers" - especially with all those blind corners, they can have a flag up or something to indicate whether there's trouble up ahead or not.

[@nololol]

i love japan because it looks like the outskirts of seattle and makes assetto corsa roleplaying easier

[@Piercy0812]

I know its like a golden rule to not get out of the car, but in scenarios like that, theres going to be a huge accident if someone doesnt warn them. 3 or 4 car chain comes through front guy checks up, 2nd car checks up, 3rd car can't see the obstruction due to the other two cars and all of a sudden theyre slamming in to the other two and the fourth car is coming for the ride. Its so easily done when in a train of cars, the only possible options are to either get the car out of the way, or warn them. As the car isnt going anywhere, I dont think there was any option but to get out of the car and warn the incoming drivers. I know i would prefer a guy waving at me from the side of the track, and me driving one corner sensibly, than the risk of me hitting something.

[@hi_tech_reptiles]

Man, just imagine public roads shaped like this, height of usage, id imagine the oil and dirt situation would be insane lol. Tho less trees in many places - that track seems do heavily forested. Dino had some amazing coverage too of the event, awesome cars at least!
