- Shuto Expressway, Daikoku Futo, Yokohama
Daikoku Futo Parking Area sits on the Yokohama waterfront where the Shuto Expressway curls overhead, its multi-tiered loop ramps and concrete pillars rising above the car park below. Since the 1980s and ’90s, drivers have gathered there late at night — one of the few places on Japan’s expressway network where you can pull in, park and be looked at without leaving the road. Its view across Tokyo Bay, the bridge lights and the glowing ramps above made it the best-known car meet in the country.
The meet has its own etiquette: drivers crawl past the rows and raise a hand in greeting, and engines are started and shut down in respectful rhythm. Cars of every era and every brand line the wet asphalt, from factory GT-Rs to home-built drift machines. The back print captures that scene in engraved white ink — a Supra and a Skyline parked beneath the looping ramps, with 大黒, “Daikoku”, on the building and in the banner.
