Look what we have here!!! GT-R?!?

So this morning, the decision was made by "Fearless Leader" Jon to make a purchase. He just simply gets up out of his desk and tells the sales staff he would return shortly. Little did we know he would come back an hour later with this....





And so it begins.

SPEED HUNTERS does artical on JIC/CROSS Porsche

Our friends over at Speedhunters.com did a special on our Formula D Porsche. Check it out....





From Speed Hunter's website...

Things are busy, busy here at Need for Speed central ATM... The main dev team is putting the finishing touches on the new Need for Speed Undercover game which has them EXTREMELY busy as you can imagine. The final 5% to finish a game can be pretty tough going. Over in our little Speedhunters corner of the studio, we are in our own little mini crunch too. We are now over half-way through Porsche month, and have a hell of a lot more special features to finish. Much work to do yet!

So I'm pleased to say that we have finally finished our first Porsche film for the month. We had originally planned to get on this this film sooner, but I thought it would make a better film to grab some more footage of the car at the Sears... err Infineon round of Formula D this past weekend. Always brings the quality level of a film up if you have more than 1 location to work with.

Unfortunately, it seems that all is not well in the JIC Magic camp with this lovely drifting machine; it hasn't had the best season thus far. The Porsche 993 GT2 has suffered too many reliability issues and it's been set back after set back, since that great second place result in New Jersey earlier this year.

Too bad... I feel for these guys... they have stepped away from the norm and made a really amazing car.

Well let's hope that this Porsche has some kind of future in drifting and that the bugs get sorted out. We just love this car! IMO it's one of the tidiest cars in the FD field.



THE BUGS HAVE BEEN WORKED OUT. WE'LL SEE YOU ALL IN IRWINDALE OCTOBER 11TH

Congratulations to Element Tuning

A special Congratulations goes out to Element Tuning for doing such a great job at Pocono Raceway while running JIC suspension.




Here is what Phil had to say about his experience on the NASIOC Forums...

"I set out to beat the time set by the DP car and I ran our car to the edge but I just couldn't keep the rear end hooked up as well as I needed it to be. Those cars are purpose built for racing, with tons of downforce, lots of power, and real racing slicks. I felt really comfortable however with the car and pushed it for all it was worth. I was getting so sideways trying to get on the power early that my lap times only dropped down to 55 seconds flat. After cooling the tires for a lap I had to ease into the throttle but ultimately came within 9/10ths of second to the Porsche DP car with a 54.8 second lap time."
