GReddy Post-SEMA Update

 [UPDATED: Nov. 4th]

Thank you for all who followed us on Twitter for our trip to SEMA this year.  (if you missed it, you can still look back at our photo updates GReddy_Power Twitter.)

Some of our favorites of this years show were:

HPD: Honda Civic Si (body in white) bare chassis, that you can actually order to make a racecar - we hear it should be around $3,500.  And Five Axis concept take on the new Lexus GS-F.

We also liked seeing our little brother version of the GReddy tC, this one was similarly built by Dynamic Autosports / Group S for Bucky Lasek to race next year.  The Scion Booth was also definitely the place to be at this year's SEMA Show, especially during the iQ Tuner Challenge announcement. 

 Some other project we found interesting were, GR Master Tuner, Jotech's many R35 that were at the show. Another was, Authorized GReddy Dealer RMR, with their V8 Genesis powered Coupe with a GReddy SE exhaust.

We also spotted the new livery of the Sparco/ScionRacing Rally xD, we turbocharged and a 4.3L GReddy VR engine with JE Pistons and Innovate gauges.
 

You can find more show photos from our friends at Urban Racer (here and here)

GReddy R35 in Ep.25 of "Behind the Smoke"

 This week we would like to share Episode #25 of the on-going video diary of Formula Drift Ace, Dai Yoshihara.  It's called "Behind the Smoke" and it is brought to you by GT Channel.

Dai is a great character and even better driver.  We enjoyed having Dai test drive our 4.3L GReddy R35.  Plus it made us feel good to hear his happy quotes "That was really really Fast..."  "...it was that good...it was so fast..."  "...it was one of the fastest cars, I ever drive (drove)..."

This weekend is the Formula D final at Irwindale Speedway.  Dai goes in with the points lead and we want to wish him the best of luck to come out with the 2011 Championship. We'll be routing for you Dai!
