Daijiro Yoshihara Crash [SNAPSHOT]

We found this in our Formula D x Twitter feed and it looks like a snapshot of Daijiro Yoshihara’s car right as the wreck happened sitting against the k-rail. We are trying to get a hold of more content/coverage from the crash but Daijiro Yoshihara hit his Lexus IS350 hard! Luckily he was alright and was walking around the track later with just an ice pack on his back. The car is for sure totaled and we are not quite sure what Daijiro Yoshihara will be driving in Sonoma but we will let you know when we get word.
I’m going to miss the Lexus IS. But now I think that this is a great time to step back into the GTO from last year. Just buy it from RMR. Dai did well in it last year. Why not now?
@Cobalt_Griffin
That really isn’t a bad idea but RMR has already sold the car to a team in the Drift Mania series up in Canada.
Thats a real shame, was a really good looking car.
Knowing Falken they’ll kick Calvin out and have Dai driving the S15.
Just got info from a very reliable source, does not look like Calvin will be booted. An older horse is coming out of retirement.
Dai said he does not feel comfortable in his old S15 anymore
Ross Petty’s old PS13?
Ross Petty’s old PS13 is an option. Speaking with the team they are looking into several options of old cars they still own/have at the Falken HQ. We should have some exact information mid/late this week when they decide what to use.
one word CAMARO
i like the camaro idea.
but wasnt it on ebay a few months ago?
Glad to hear he was ok after the wreck. Hope to see him out there at Sonoma.
Get Henry’s old RB26 powered RPS13. Ross drove it in 2006. Bad ass car.
Car has already been decided on and is being worked on. Have not been given the ok by the team do disclose the info, but it should be LS powered. And yes its one of the older cars in the stable. I know its certain cause I just sent out the Wilwoods for it.
