An observational piece documenting a historical part of Osaka's car enthusiasts culture

**WARNING**
This is RAW footage that was captured in Japan as merely an observational piece documenting a historical part of Osaka's car enthusiasts culture. What you see is not scripted in any way nor was any of it planned. What you will witness is incredibly dangerous and should not be attempted, recreated, or practiced at any time.

All parties who participated do so at their own risk and hold any and all persons associated with STICKYDILJOE.COM and this channel harmless of any and all liabilities.

The Chronicles Vlog #7 is a series of videos documenting my journey back to Japan in preparation for the annual Wekfest Japan event. I was asked to return to Japan a few days earlier than I had originally scheduled to help out the guys over at Tactical Art. They were finishing up some cars and preparing for the event and it was important that I be there early to help. I decided to document the entire thing so that you can see what goes on prior to WFJP as well as after. This is essentially every day life in Japan as we prepared for the big event.

This is probably the one that many have been waiting to see... With that said, let me address one major issue that people will have when viewing this: YES, the video is very shaky. I have done what I could to stabilize it but what it comes down to is we just weren't prepared for any of this to happen that night. Originally, we had planned to head back to Tokyo but being that it was a major holiday, we couldn't get a train out and so we were stuck in Osaka. It was just a average, chill day until we got a phone call from one of our contacts within No Good Racing. I can't really divulge much on the details of the evening but as you will see, we have acquired raw in-car footage in its most violent form. For those of you who were wondering what it was like to participate in this incredibly dangerous activity, now you will get a glimpse from within the car that is piloted by a highly-respected member of NGR who we have come to know as "The King". He is a long-time member (over 20 years driving) who is still very much an active member of the infamous car club. What I want you guys to notice when watching the video is the pure joy he gets from running the Osaka Loop to this very day in 2015. The guy is just not wired like regular human beings. He is a thrill-seeker like none you have ever seen before and his crazy, violent driving style is one that has to be seen.
