Some video from Best Motoring, in Japan...

[andy mac]

Best motoring is Japans version of top gear, but bringing out a video magazine every month, or bimonthly. But istead of doing reviews, or taking a car down some nice country roads, they get a load of different cars, and blatter then round a track. makes for some great action, and although some of it is not dubbed, or subtitled, it's just as fun. Files are large, so 57K users beware... By the way, the best tranlation of the japanese word for race is battle, hence why they are called such!
