Please Support Taka Aono to compete Formula D East Coast!! *EDITED!

Our Team Driver Taka Aono...He did great as 5th place @ the Formula D RD 1 @ Long Beach. Now, he really wants to compete @ the Formula D Atlanta & New Jersey...

However, he became a privateer...and sadly, he won't have enough fund to get there in this point.

If anyone is interested in supporting Taka, please make some donation/chip-in/gas card/etc.

Thank you very much for your support!!

So...the Chip-In thingy is now showing the amount I've got.
