In this exhilarating adventure, Larry Chen takes us deep into the heart of the kaido racer scene at the BWB clubhouse in Malaysia. The atmosphere is electric, with BWB's clever play on words - back wheel drive - paying homage to the JDM roots of these enthusiasts. Stepping into the clubhouse feels like a teleportation to Japan, surrounded by authentic memorabilia that breathes life into this unique subculture so far from its birthplace. The passion driving these racers is palpable, with the community growing steadily since its inception in 2011.
Despite the niche nature of kaido style racing, with less than 30 cars in Malaysia sporting these modifications, BWB serves as a hub for like-minded individuals to gather, share stories, and immerse themselves in all things automotive. From selling merchandise to being a proud dealer of Japanese racing equipment, the clubhouse is not just a place of business but a sanctuary for petrolheads. Larry delves into the intricacies of a Nissan Laurel C230 kaido racer build, showcasing the fusion of style and practicality in this unique vehicle.
As Larry captures the essence of kaido racing through his lens, the purple sirens adorning the cars serve as a symbol of rebellion against stringent regulations. The thrill of witnessing these machines in action is unparalleled, with Larry's lens capturing every heart-pounding moment. Through the eyes of the Malaysian racers, we witness a nostalgic trip down memory lane, reminiscing about the teenage years spent pushing the limits on the streets of Tokyo. Despite the changing landscape in Japan, where such driving is now frowned upon, Malaysia remains a haven for these enthusiasts, keeping the spirit of kaido racing alive and well.
