Last check was the Engine Oil and \"WATER\"! What in the world! Plans had been made to drive the pickup there and even had temporary license plates and registration. But, it had to be hauled by trailer instead. There was nothing that could be done about that. \u305d\u308c\u3067\u306f\u3068MOONEYES Dragster\u3092\u5f15\u3063\u5f35\u308a\u3060\u3057\u3001Masterline\u3092Push Car\u306e\u3088\u3046\u306b \u4e26\u3079\u3066\u307f\u308b\u3068\u305d\u308c\u305e\u308c\u51fa\u751f\u56fd\u306f\u9055\u3044\u307e\u3059\u304c\u5e74\u4ee3\u304c\u540c\u3058\u306a\u306e\u3067\u5b9f\u969b\u306b\u3042\u3063\u3066\u3082\u304a\u304b\u3057\u304f\u306a\u3044\u826f\u3044\u611f\u3058\u3067\u3057\u305f\u3002Dean MOON\u304c\u64ae\u3063\u305f\u5199\u771f\u306e\u69d8\u3067\u306f\u3042\u308a\u307e\u305b\u3093\u304b\uff1f Later on at Mooneyes we pulled out the MOONEYES Dragster and lined it up in front of the Masterline as if it were a Push Car. Although the origins are from two different countries, the period is correct and didn't look out of place, actually looked very good together.

The younger crowd seemed to have many variations of Scion XB (in Japan it's a bB) styles. Examples with Trim Rings, White Ribbons, Spacer Hub Caps etc. and even a Japanese-esque XB as well. Among the cars, as always, the ones that excite me most are the Japanese Drag Race Cars.
