This California rally is vintage Japanese car heaven
What's so good about the future? This is what I was thinking when some folks at Mazda invited me and a handful of other journalists to join them on the second-annual Touge California. It's a rally for classic Japanese cars
that covers a huge chunk of Southern California's twistier roads, where
fans get to test their beloved machines. Oh, and it attracts swarms of
admirers with cameras.
"It is not a race. It is a vintage touring rally," said Ben Hsu, editor
in chief of Japanese Nostalgic Car, and one of the coordinators of the
event. "In Japan, touge most definitely refers to racing, whether timed,
in touge battles, or drifting antics. Touge California was created to
give drivers of Japanese classics a taste, as close as possible, of the
types of roads their cars were forged on."
