Holy Crap, Daigo Saito Built Another Ferrari Drift Car

Director Luke Huxham, who’s made rad with Saito, snapped this pic of Saito’s newest, reddest, and most insane build yet.

I have to hand it to a man who doesn’t just drive his supercars, but willingly blasts whatever rubber he can fit onto them into smithereens. Daigo Saito: drift king of Jalops.
