So I guess another forum in Ireland? Great stuff. Not really i guess because there is so many around now its pointless setting one up. Maybe it is , maybe it isint. The idea that were trying to create with this forum is a nice laid back type of approach which wont have much moderating and, well if you are being an idiot, its nobody’s fault if you get offended and flamed for it. Its going to be a free type of forum where you can talk shit, talk cars talk whatever you want and post some interesting stuff for others to check. Hopefully it goes as good as the site. If the forum gets popular we can add move and modify the sub forums to peoples tastes or needs. and ask people to help out if things get popular. Hope you like it and I hope people are enjoying the site. The view count is growing which is cool, were going to try and keep updating with shit as much as possible with features and other event coverage and random shit,
Cheers

The new Lexus LFA against the Nissan GTR in a quarter mile battle, Skip into 4 minutes if you just want to see the race, the video is quite long.
Everyday for at least two years I walked past this shining pearl. It lived right around the corner from me. Over the years around where I live there has been some really good cars. The first jzx100 I ever laid eyes on lived across from the local shop. A metallic navy sileighty on Te37s slammed, right on the way to college. These were some serious cars hiding amongst the normal streets. These were times before anyone was really even importing cars from the rising sun. One day when I was coming home this shiny new Silvia appeared. I thought it was here for a visit but then each day it was there in the same place when I was coming home. The Silvia would lurk in between Ibiza’s, Cordoba’s, Polo’s, Daewoo’s, the usual suburban family wagons parked one after another from one end of the street to the next.
Oni ( 鬼 ) is the Japanese word for demon or ogre. When it comes to cars, it’s about running the absolute craziest amount of camber possible and in the pursuit of going over the top,
This has become quite popular these last few weeks when we were building the site. If you havent seen this already you have now hahaha.

Its been a while since I had been to a Prodrift event. I kind of never got around to getting to one and with the new site its given me a chance to start going to them and covering them. In Ireland there seems to be a massive division between people who are into drifting and drag racing and whatever, in my opinion Im glad to go any event that has a tasty looking four wheel or two wheel vehicle doing something worthwhile to watch or look at. I didn’t really know what to expect with Prodrift but to be honest it was pretty damn good. We ended up coming in late and the event had already gone underway as we were too cool in the car park taking pictures of Wolfrace katanas but we will talk more about that next week. I was taking pictures from the sideline a little intimidated by the actual size and numbers of people who are going to these events now. Drifting and the entire Japanese car scene, well the Irish car scene as a whole for that matter is still growing. Even though the super duper recession has come to play and ruin the fun for everyone, I was surprised to see how many people are still splashing out and are down for the scene. Good stuff. In fairness the drift competitions have come along way from the days of rosegreen where every have a go hero was on the track in sierras and omegas(which was cool) but this is a lot more structured. Its pretty impressive.
You have to love the Japanese and the over the top adverts they make with the worst songs ever. Its such an amazing mix that makes them a country that the whole world looks at with awe. They have mad so many commercials that we have never seen and while we are bored to death with ads about fiat puntos and Renault va va voom fuck off ads, They had adverts about 4 dour skylines drifting and hilarious American actors with over the top Music from the west which makes the best ad to watch in between anything. Ive got together some of the best that we’ve come across and stuck em here for entertainment. You may have seen them you may not, either way take a look again at how your car was being advertised in the land of the rising sun.
We know that a convertable usually means a ponce. Sometimes there can be an exception and with an s- chassis like this Id gladly have the roof down driving around. I’m loving the height and stance of it, rocking some Work VS-XX! Seems its a drop top I would have to splash out for another matching bride so you could be flash and keep it real at the same time.
This is one of my favourite cars, in a video with one of the best songs ever. Electric Relaxation by A Tribe Called quest. Thanks Teejay
If anyone has the cars and the space to make an Irish version of this. We will bring the cameras!!
Cool video sent via email by Paul.
Cheers man
We will also be starting a new section for Wednesday called what the fuck wednesday. You can submit some funky shit for it in the forum once this is up and running. This week we bring you this delicious beast.
Yummy
You really have to wonder aye…
We are going to try and cover everything that’s going on in Ireland on the site. If its a competition like Pro drift that some people may hate or a Honda meet that others might not enjoy, were going to try and cater for everything because why not? If its a decent car or something interesting it deserves some credit. A thing we are going to start on Juicebox is car park check, we are going to go to events and go and scower the car park to see whats going on in Ireland, usually there are a few gems lurking in the car park and a few not so gems, Today were going to start this with the Fermoy car park at Prodrift round 1. Some pictures from the event will be coming tomorrow. I know this is a little late but the site was being built when we went to cover it. We have coverage from a few events which went on while the site was under construction so bear with us as we try top get up to speed over the next week. The forum should also be up soon which will be cool. Check it out and stay tuned for more.
