DON'T KILL DAIKOKU - EP.42

Live from Blunt Garage, you're listening to Right Hand Drive Guys. I'm Bobby. This is Aaron.

Yeah.

And this is episode 42.

Yep.

That's really cool.

We're too. We're getting up there.

Yeah, we are.

And this is the Don't Kill DiCoku episode.

Yes.

Yeah. I didn't even lay that on you before we started, but I figured I'd hate you.

Yeah, don't kill it.

Yeah, exactly.

And so a lot of guys, or girls listening, probably know what and where Dicoku is for the mostpart.

Some of you have been there, most you probably haven't, but we're going to kind of lay it allout and let you know why the episodes even called Don't Kill Dicoku.

Yeah, yeah, for sure.

So Dicoku is a PA. What's a PA?

PA stands for Parking Area.

Yeah. And it's not like the parking area you're thinking necessarily on 95 or whatever, you

know, 40, whatever interstates where you're at.

It's they're different over there.

Yeah, yeah. For sure.

I mean, they're similar, you know, as far as like the concept, I guess you could say.

Right.

You know, there are areas that are only accessible by car because they're off a highway,just like they are in the States.

So, you know, regular, even just regular, you know, road traffic can't get on it.

You have to exit and enter on using an interstate.

Right, right.

So that's one thing about it.

It's kind of similar to the ones in the States, but as Japan is, they go way harder intheir parking areas.

Way harder.

So you're going to find not only, of course, you know, bathrooms that's going to be thebase, but then there's the whole everything else like the shopping, the food, like theygot shopping in there.

Yeah, yeah.

It's insane.

Like, I've never experienced anything like these in my life to add any of them that welike stock by and like the closest thing I could kind of relate it to is like a buckiesor something in the United States, which is kind of, but that's still kind of gas stationfor me.

Right.

That's more of a truck stop.

I mean, these places like have these specialty things that are like from that region thatthey're in.

Yeah.

And just like like the tank is wagyu jerky.

Yeah.

The coolest ice creams like drinks galore, vending machines outside the like lining the placein Ferris wheels.

Yeah, Ferris wheels.

Yeah.

We stopped it one Latomy Expressway.

And it said the base of Fuji and like that one has like all kinds of souvenirs and stuffabout Fuji.

Like has a place you can go upstairs and have like a picture of it.

Like, it's hard to explain, but they like like an observation.

Like an observation type.

Yeah, yeah.

Right.

They put a sticker on the window and it has a heart and you take a picture of the windowand it like it has Fuji in it.

Yeah, yeah.

It's Fuji in it.

It's like, whatever.

Yeah.

But yeah, I mean, it just goes to show like how they do things.

And that's not the only one that's like that.

Like the one at Ebonus famous for like the melon palm.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.

But Daikoku is a little different.

Not so much shopping.

There's a 24 hour loss.

But, you know, there's more like some food and other things.

But not as much shopping and specialty stuff.

It seems more of a, I wouldn't say a quick, quicker stop.

But it's not off the side of a long haul.

Right, right.

It's like right right in the Yokohama Bay, right?

So it's right outside of Tokyo.

Yeah, Bayshore Route, baby.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You know, yeah, yeah.

For sure.

And so that's, everybody knows it goes to Daikoku.

It's out the Bayshore Route.

Yeah.

Get the Bayshore Route and take that PA exit.

Not the Daikoku Futo exit, which is actually down at the pier.

Right, right.

Because this is like an industrial area.

Yeah, it's not where you'd normally see these PA's that we're talking about.

It's definitely more industrial commercial.

Right, right.

And so, yeah, basically 20 minutes out of like the middle of Tokyo, maybe.

Yeah.

25.

Pitting on traffic.

Right, yeah.

Right in the Bay.

And it's kind of, and I'll try to attach some pictures on YouTube.

But it's kind of like goes or the interstate like circles around it, the entrance and exit.

So when you're standing in this place all up around you is like concrete ramps andit's like pretty high.

Yeah, pretty high up and dude, like the closest thing I can even relate to is like remindsyou of like some old video game.

Like, it's a Sega video game where you know, just like all these colors and like all thesecrazy stripes on the on the road.

Yeah, just I don't know, just it looks so different that like exit area.

Yeah, it's completely different than any other part of that I've seen even in Tokyo.

Right.

It's like crazy.

Yeah, it is different.

And so when you see it, you definitely know you're there.

And it's pretty big.

It's got like 340 spots for cars and another 60 for long trailer trucks.

Yeah.

Which, you know, that's, yeah, it's that's pretty large.

Two different sets of bathrooms.

So it's a it's a cool place.

I mean, in tons of vending machines of course.

Yeah.

And the spots are in like, I don't know, I would say 40 long rows or so like back andforth.

Yeah.

And you kind of have to drive like around like you can't.

Back and forth over to the speed bumps.

You do.

It's one way.

So you have to, it kind of stinks in that sense.

But yeah, I mean, I like it of course, right?

Yeah, yeah.

I think it's pretty sick.

And like it's one of those places where it's been around for so long that you were onthe forums back in the day.

You would always see the photos of the car meets there.

Right.

And you would always know that it was there because of like you said, like the exit rampgetting down how it circles around the entire place.

And like, whatever that tower thing is in the middle, what?

It's a light and speaker tower.

Oh, okay.

Yeah.

So in seeing that, I mean, it's just so iconic.

You like, when you see pictures from there, you know that's like, oh, yeah.

And no matter what kind of car is there, it could be.

There's any kind of California state trooper car like Dodge charger or there could besome crazy super car you've never even seen before.

Yeah.

It's just crazy and all the things that show up there as well.

Yeah.

And so when we went to Japan, we were there four or five nights or so.

And my most recent trip, we went three nights and it's, it's wild.

It's, it was wild when we went.

Yeah.

But it's like way more wild now in the sense of spectators.

I would call it spectators.

Not necessarily definitely a lot of them are not people with cars there.

You know, whether they rode with somebody or got a taxi in which you don't do.

Usually they know, like I've heard of stories of people trying to get taxis down there, butlike the cab drivers don't understand why you want to go to a parking area to be droppedoff because it makes no sense.

Right.

So you got to tell them that you're meeting somebody there and that's where they theywanted you to meet them.

Yeah.

I mean, and like, there's no buses to go to this place.

Right.

No public transportation.

It's, it's just like, it's like we're talking about with the PA.

Most of them are simply just for cars to stop off, get your drink, take a nap, which mostof them are.

Right.

You know, a lot of them that we went to, that's exactly what's happening constantly.

Yeah.

A few of them, you know, after dark, of course, not just Dikoku.

Dikoku is just the most, like, talked about and like, kind of publicized parking.

And especially being like right close to the long on the C1, like, yeah, it was the stopoff back in the day for everybody.

And that's where they met up.

That's how, of course, that's how Dikoku started was the racers, the, the serious guys, theunderground guys.

And then it becomes a legend.

And like any legend, everybody wants a piece of that legend.

But there's a difference.

There's a difference between people who want a piece of the legend, but respect it.

And somebody who's maybe chasing clout or doesn't understand Japanese customs, doesn't respectit.

There's two different types of people.

100%.

Yeah.

You know, there can be people, yeah, there's definitely two type of people that go there.

And it's like the people that do respect it, understand it, love the culture.

And then there's the guy just trying to get the video, no matter what, if he's standingon the on-ramp of the highway or whatever it is, and just kind of more or less ruining it,right?

Yeah, pretty much turning it into something it never was supposed to be even after theracers had stopped going there because too many people were coming, even after the undergroundguys found a new spot.

People kept going there and it kept getting bigger, right?

And now you have this, as I said, like legend that has almost outgrown itself to an extent.

So when we went, you know, on a Saturday night when we were there, it was bumping.

You know, it was cool and there was some spectators for sure.

When Bella and I went on this Thursday, it was gross.

It was ridiculous.

I think it was hard.

There was so many people.

So basically the way that DiKoku works is on the front side of it is where the entrancecomes in.

And then there's four entrances into the parking lot on your right that you can take spacedout because of the other side that comes around.

So there's this big patch when you first drive in to your right before that first turnin.

And this was like people were packed like it was a train.

Like I'm serious.

I was on this little island on the little island.

Yeah.

And I'm just like, what is going on with this?

Like why is so many people here?

So I'm thinking like, you know, I'm trying to think and I'm trying to find a spot, super hardto find a spot.

The place was packed on a Thursday night.

And so all those people like I said standing there, they weren't, they didn't have a car there.

Most of them, all the guys with cars were talking to other guys with cars like it was meantto be.

It was never meant to be a car show.

It was meant to be like do tangy and like conversing and talking about parts and, you know,strategies, whatever it may be.

Now it has definitely turned into like, what are we going to see?

You know, like Skyline supers and everything in between, you know, and they're there likewe said kind of for some for the cloud, some for the genuine.

Some of them are the people that respect, right?

Because just because they want the video of the skyline pulling in doesn't mean that theyaren't like respectful.

Yeah.

I'm simply saying this comparatively to when we were there on a Saturday night, you know,six or seven months later on a Thursday night is worse than like in the sense of spectators.

Yeah.

And that's insane.

Again, I get it.

Like, you know, we're not also lucky to have a skyline there that we can go drive.

Right.

Like respect.

Like 100%.

You rent a car.

Yeah.

You, or you join an experience which brings you there in a car.

You, yeah, that's the, or you make a friend.

Right.

That like those are kind of the three things.

Get a car.

Join experience.

Get a friend.

Yeah.

And the experience thing that's, that's fairly easy to come by by, yeah, Albo does it obviouslyright?

Yeah.

And then the, the, the, the experience.

Yeah, yeah.

For scale because we're just looking, we just typed in Daikoku on Google.

Dude, we just typed it in Daikoku parking area.

Never ending.

Just, it was like sponsored, what, tours, yeah, sponsor tours.

And there's like tours nonstop.

We're just like, we're, yeah, for someone that included a car rental.

Yeah.

So like, you know, anywhere between, I think it was what, 50 bucks up to several hundred.

Yeah.

Like you can spend and like, do this type of thing correctly.

Right.

Yeah.

Right.

And the sense of renting a car, driving to the parking area, hanging out with the car,whatever.

Having somebody experienced, you know, having someone that knows the culture, yeah.

Yeah.

That's, that's the big thing because that's what, that's what's killing Daikoku is thepeople that see it on Instagram, see it on Twitter, TikTok, YouTube.

And they're like, we're hitting that.

Yeah.

Nope.

That's a great idea to start.

Yeah.

But then they just try to hit it.

And then they end up down there on the outside of the fence.

Yeah.

And so like Aaron mentioned earlier, Daikoku, you cannot get into from the pier side, whichmeans no local road will take you there.

And when we were first meeting there, we, I took the local road, not realizing I took theDaikoku Futo exit.

And so I end up down on the outside of it exactly where, you know, some of these eventshave happened that, you know, have led to us even talking about this.

I'm on the outside over there.

And it's kind of daunting because, you know, I took the Apple directions and I put Daikokuparking area and it brings me on the outside.

No way to get in besides go out and around onto the highway, come around, you know, a fewtools later.

Right.

And also being my first time there.

I had no clue.

So I can see how some of these guys are getting in these situations, but their actions basedon that is what is creating the problem.

Right.

You got to be smarter about it.

Yeah.

And so we can, before we really get into the nitty gritty of what the problem is and howto solve it, what, what is some of the best things about Daikoku?

Like, what have you seen there that was like mind blowing, you know, on the car guysout of things.

The reason why everybody wants to come here in the first place.

Yeah.

What are some of the things you've seen?

Yeah.

I would think it's just the vibe of the place.

I mean, one, like you're in the middle, or not in the middle, but you're in Tokyo, you'rein Japan.

You're seeing all these crazy cars.

You've always seen online or, you know, you're just in this super.

It's like a iconic place that just might mean more to you because of whatever you've seenyour favorite car here before or just all those type of things, right?

That kind of plays into the vibe.

And then on top of that, just like seeing the car culture there firsthand and just howvast it can be and how vast like just how random some of the cars can be there.

Oh, for sure.

You can see it.

At any given time.

So you can see everything there.

It's a lot of like import, you know, quote unquote cars, but you're going to see other thingslike I'll patch in a video here on YouTube of the charger with Lambo doors and, you know,and then right next to it is an M specner.

Yeah.

And so it's just like, it's kind of crazy because their love of the machine is so expansive.

Like no matter what they have, they pretty much mod it.

The guys that are into it, you know, whether it's a little K car or it's a S 15.

Yeah, they do it up 100%.

And then on top of that, like there's also the Lawson's, they have a tank chicken.

Yeah, they do.

They have tank chickens, some good on Geary.

Yeah, yeah, for sure.

And then the vending machines.

Yeah.

And then of course, like you got the bathroom's air.

And then you get the, yeah, I know it sounds crazy, but like for a car guy that's into Japanesestuff, like it's kind of a one stop shop in that sense, right?

You can get like 90% of the stuff that you see on Instagram in one stop, right?

Yeah.

You get the cars, you get the, you know, a convenient food, the, the, the vending machines,like, yeah, you do.

In the day, you know, if you go into the back.

Yeah, the total.

Yeah.

I mean, it does.

And then that's just really on one side.

And then on the other side, there's an actual two actual restaurants in more bathrooms.

So yeah, I mean, it is, I guess, that perfect spot and not being in the actual center, butbeing in like the Southwest part of Tokyo, it kind of keeps it out of the hustle and bustleso that maybe you're not drawing so much attention.

Yeah.

And then the thing we have it mentioned, what else is that?

Dicoco?

What else is that?

Dicoco?

The friggin police station.

Oh, yeah.

The police station.

There's a police station here.

Yeah.

100% is like, it's kind of hidden, right?

It's like, I find some bushes or something underneath one of the bridges.

Yeah.

And then you're like, wait a minute.

Why?

That's a police station.

These vehicles are pulling out of there.

Like, it's so, you know, they'll, they, so Dicoco, who used tonever get shut down.

So I was told that like back in the day and even just, you know, before COVID, they wouldn'treally get shut down.

Yeah.

Unless it was like out of control or like there was any sort of like the racing burnout typething, they do not like the racing.

They do not like the burnouts.

Yeah.

Like any law enforcement, right?

Right.

You know, so, yeah.

But I guess they used to not, but now what'll happen is, and so when we were there, it wasgolden week.

More people were out.

We were there on the weekend.

It got shut down like 10 o'clock about, you know, they'd, but this last trip, 830.

Oh, yeah.

I was like, you know, on a Thursday.

That's strict.

Yeah.

And so I think that, you know, in which what this is what this is all leading into.

And this is getting out of control.

Yeah.

You know, to their, their point, you know, especially with what you're saying.

Some of these guys are on the honor off ramp, taking pictures, trying to get that perfectreal or whatever it may be.

And what they're doing is creating a hassle for local law enforcement.

And no matter what you think, PA, you're right, whatever, they're local law enforcement.

Yeah.

They Trump, you, they live there.

Yeah.

Like, they live there.

So now it's turned back to 830.

And like I said, whole median, well, two, really, because there's one full median at the entrance,one at the exit, because people want those shots, right?

And then there's people sprinkled all through the other 340 spots.

Yeah.

And so it's kind of one of those things.

You got the police onsite.

They literally hide their vehicles until they are ready to come out.

One will come out at first and he'll put on his little light and he'll yell out on thebullhorn.

Which sounds super intimidating.

Yeah, it does.

I don't know why, but just the way their tone of voices when they start like, yeah, it'slike they send out the guy with the like, okay, yes, sir.

Yeah, you're kind of pucker and you like head to the car and you I'm like, do it notyou, but yeah, it's like, dude, what are you doing?

No, I'm out of here, bro.

And then they hit the siren, dude.

Oh, yeah, something about that siren too is just different.

It hits different.

It does hit different.

Dude, it's just like, uh-huh.

What's happening, dude?

Like what's going to happen?

Like, I don't know.

It sounds kind of scary, but no, it's just the meat getting shut down.

Yeah.

And so what ends up happening is they have these toyotas that they have a sign that comesup out of the back of it within the lights are on it and it extends the lights up so thatyou can see them even more and it has a bullhorn on it.

And so what they'll do is at the entrance, they'll go drive around and they'll go parkat the entrance so that you have to go around to the exit.

You can't come in anymore.

Hi.

You have to turn right and head out the exit.

And so that's how they stop the cars coming in.

So the first one is, dude, telling people to leave.

The second one is the guy that blocks the entrance.

Third one, they have three cars.

They drive around and they'll say the same thing again, but now with more force.

So that's like morning three.

And so a lot of people just don't want to deal with it and they start leaving.

And that's what we did the first time.

Yeah.

Well, what ended up happening with Bella and I is we were up at the bathroom and atthe Lawsons.

We went after the first single guy came and the one that parks and puts up the light.

We went to the Lawsons in the bathroom because she's an 11 year old girl.

She had to go to the bathroom and I'm getting some on Geary.

So we missed the three, you know, because we were in there for quite a while actually.

And when we come out, they're doing this thing where they got like 12 guys and they prettymuch like all walk the parking lot and they yell and whose cars this go and they prettymuch kick you out like in like a wave.

And so we're parked like four rows back and like there and like the first or second rowand we're walking there and they're like getting up to the car and I'm getting in thecar as they start walking up and he's like, yeah, whatever he's saying pretty much likegoing.

I'm like, I'm out.

You know, just because they are like, it does seem especially to people that maybe aren'tinvolved with law enforcement and like, whatever, it does seem like aggressive.

Right, right, right.

And with my last year, I'm like, oh, she's going to think this is bad.

Like, let's get out of here.

Right, right.

Oh, remember the time that we went, the time that it was shut down.

We had parked the camper there.

Oh, Lord.

Yeah.

Like way earlier in the day, we came back at night and been shut down due the complete parkingline is empty empty besides the camper.

Dude, it's like a sore thumb.

Good luck.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And I mean, they like stare you down, but let's you out, right?

Yeah, they didn't say anything to walk right past them.

I was trying to guisee my way out of it.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, as we've been told, just guisee your way out.

Right, right.

It didn't stop me and I hopped right in, drove right past them and it was on my way.

But it was kind of scary.

I was like, which one of these dudes is going to drop me with some nunchucks or something?

Seriously.

Yeah, I mean, that's way better than that one night when we pulled him, you know, lookingfor a meat and it had been shut down.

So the, you could still pull into the trailer truck spots, but like not, you're not, it wasreally for trailer trucks, right?

Right, right.

So I pull off to the left side of that parking area kind of in the through way.

And I just pulled off to get directions to where the hardcore underground or whateverme was, yeah, yeah, or the Tokyo underground and dude, all of a sudden the trailer truck'slike, and I like just about like shit my pants.

Yeah.

And so I'm like waving out the window time, like go by because he could go by, buthe was like, I don't know what his deal was.

So of course the big Hong Kong gets the police's attention.

And so I'm telling this guy to wait by and all of a sudden he's like, what was it to or threeof them?

Two of them start like running at us kind of in blow whistle.

Yes, in like shaking their little lighted baton thing at us.

And I'm like, one minute, one minute and they're basically they're like, no, get out.

Like told me to go and I'm like, okay, dude, I got my body here.

So Daikoku is cool, but now there's a police presence, right?

And the reason for that is, what do you think?

Guys jeans.

Guy, yeah, I mean, the foreigners, the new people, the people that like we said, they didn'ttake the time to really, and they didn't invest the time into that trip right there.

Right.

I mean, I think it's the people jumping the fences.

And you know, getting dropped off down there and not having a ride out.

And yeah, like that's just a headache for us.

Yeah, I know it's it is, dude, it's, but I think that definitely has something to do withthe presence, you know, I mean, yeah.

And plus, I mean, that's definitely it.

And just imagine to the locals what you seem like, dude, when you don't have a rideout of Daikoku, and then you're, you're getting desperate.

You're asking those people that are now starting to take off.

Can I get a ride there?

Like, could you imagine if you did that at your local meet, like if someone just came upout of nowhere, barely spoke the language, it was asking you for a ride or like just,with their phone, basically breaking into the place.

And then like, yeah, asking you for a ride on Translate and like trying to do this thing.

Could you imagine how, how crazy you would look at them?

Because that's how crazy they're going to look at you.

Yeah, because they don't know you.

They don't know you, right?

They don't know you got a 350Z back home that you drift and you always love having afurious.

They got no clue.

Right.

They just are like, all right, but like, you know, and probably brush you off and then you'relike, oh, Japanese dudes are jerks.

Well, no, dude, you're just out of line.

Yeah, yeah, you got to, you got to come correct, you know, and like, that was one of the thingsthat kind of, I don't know, learn pretty quick about Japan.

Because you got to forget everything you know about home and then all your customs backhome, don't mean shit to them over there.

Exactly.

You're not entitled to nothing there.

You got to, you got to move like they do when you're over there.

Or at least put in the effort and that's, yeah, that's it.

What this all boils down to is lack of effort on some of these guys parts that's just soexcited to come that they don't understand this part.

Like you're walking into Japan.

Okay.

Yeah.

You were on their, their turf.

You got to act like that.

Don't, don't, it's not the local ball field.

You're not climbing the fence to go play catch, dude.

Like you're climbing literal 12 or 14.

It's a huge fence.

Yeah, it's insane.

I saw, I was like, those dudes are brave.

Like, no, like, why?

Like, holy cow.

That's super dope.

Dude, but it's not that cool or whatever you're going to see.

Like, and really, again, they take pride in their property.

They take pride in their cars.

They take pride in their culture and customs.

So you're straight up disrespecting them.

Yeah.

And you don't even know it.

You're just so focused on a car or whatever you want to say.

Yeah, you're just so tunnel vision, like, which, yeah, I get it, but like, take a stepback.

Right.

Think a little bit.

Like, think about what you're doing.

Think about where you are.

Think about how far away from home you are.

Yeah.

Because I don't know what Japanese jail cells are like, but yeah, I know.

I know.

I know what I'm trying to bring into a car.

No way.

And so what you're really doing in what you got to really realize by making these likeavoidable mistakes is you're pushing the dope cars out of there.

The dope car.

Let me tell you something.

And we could have a whole nother episode.

I'm sure on this.

The dope cars aren't at Ticoku anymore.

No, they're not.

They're at their own small, exclusive meets because they truly want to talk to each otherand hang out with cars.

They don't want like the crowd.

They don't want your pictures.

They don't want.

They don't need any of that.

Yeah.

They, they're not going to die.

Coco anymore.

They might swing by.

They may drive through on sevens day or right.

Exactly.

Right.

You know, some special occasion.

Mm-hmm.

But for the most part, yeah, those dudes are going.

Yeah, they're probably at a parking garage over in this area, you know, 30 of them, whatever.

But yeah, it's pushing it further and further out.

And so what you're really doing is affecting the culture in like a negative way.

Yeah.

Eventually, you're going to kill Dicoku.

100%.

Yeah.

And then what?

I mean, yeah, it's the next parking area.

Like they do.

That's what the locals, that's what the dudes with the super dope cars.

They went on to the next and probably the next already, you know, because word always getsaround when it comes to sick cars.

Right.

It's how it is.

So, I mean, I don't know, I'd be real sad if they shut down Dicoku like that.

I mean, again, they've already gone an hour and a half earlier than just when we were there.

Yeah.

I do that.

I would be pretty upset.

I mean, just because of how iconic it is.

And it's one of those things that's like, it's the only place I get in the world literallyfucking up.

Yes.

With your weird, skewed sense of entitlement or whatever you got.

And so what they put out some sort of warning, right?

Yeah.

The high, forget the word they call it, but pretty much like the highway patrol or whateverfor that area, for that expressway.

Put out a warning in English.

In English, that tells you a lot.

Yeah.

And it pretty much just said, you know, explain that there were people trying to jump the fences,people that were showing up that don't have rides.

Like the whole thing, the whole thing that we just went over and like, if like the government,if the DOT is putting out like a statement against these people doing these things, must bepretty important.

Like, yeah, that means that it's gotten out of hand.

Yeah.

For sure.

Yeah.

They posted the video, the people trying to climb the fence.

Dude, yeah.

And then the police rolling up on them.

Yeah.

Like, yeah.

I mean, I'd hate to be those kids right now.

Yeah, no doubt.

Imagine you're on the infomercial or whatever for something not to do.

Yeah, exactly about your favorite people's favorite place.

Yeah.

And so, you know, of course, it just comes down to respect and being like a good human beingand suppressing some of your feelings to think straight.

Yeah.

But you're going to have a lot of people not liking you if you killed that Koku.

Yeah.

100%.

And I've seen a lot of the locals in Japan, like say the same thing about it.

Like, they shared that video and then put their two cents in on it.

And they're just like, you foreigners got a chill.

Yeah.

I mean, it's an amazing place.

But like, don't just, yeah, just chill.

Like right, exactly respect.

And that's the biggest thing respected.

Don't go to die Koku and come without the respect.

Right.

Keep that at your local takeover, whatever.

Whatever.

Yeah.

Because Japan doesn't play that.

But little sidebar, the cops were like definitely on anyone racing.

Like, I heard sirens like consistently for that.

And you'd hear the revs.

You hear the revs all of a sudden.

You'd hear the sirens blowing.

So I think they're even cracking down on that facet of it.

Because I think that the sounds, because like we said, it's a big and closed concrete thing.

Somebody, when they race, you hear it like you're at the strip.

It's crazy.

It like echoes perfectly in there.

So I think that helps draw people because that's another sense that like is heightened whenyou're hearing that constantly.

But yeah, so from everybody that respects that Koku, please don't kill it.

Yeah, don't kill it, dude.

Just chill out.

Just chill.

Yeah.
