Saw this car at R34 Matsuri last year but it was still on pink stickers. Nice to clarify what this signifies. Good article, Toby.

Sorry, the Clio is a Renault (and not a Peugeot as it’s written in the text). Besides that, this article is the real deal – thanks for sharing this gorgeous experience!

I get where you’re goin but Mid Night is a club, its not an individual. The club leaders decide on how it will conduct itself and will carry on. While they were known primarily for street racing what they really focused on was being fast (like really fast) and public safety, and it seems they’ve kept those ideals while moving away from endangering the public. After the accident with the bosozoku it was never going to be the same.

“If this 997 did not have a Mid Night sticker, how would it be different than other time attack builds featured on SH?” The Bulls wouldn’t be the BULLS without Mj, Ferrari wouldn’t be the same without Schumacher, and in the same sense Mid Night wouldn’t be the same without its memebers. Anyone can buy a fast car but that doesn’t make them a fast driver. The Mid Night sticker shows others that the driver behind the wheel is a force to be reckoned with; anytime they show up to events they’re not to be taken lightly.

Great photos. Really puts perspectives on the engineering and driver experience of the golden era, especially the picture of the Laguna on jacks. A Tamiya TA02 R/C Laguna of that vintage probably had more suspension travel than the real car =P

There is a street racing team in Japan very similar to Mid Night, it’s called Misoji’s, they race on highways like they did in the 90s, their chairman died in an accident in october 2015, but the members are still racing in yokohama.
