From 2008 to 2013, DarcNoodles, a YouTuber who's fond of cars and food, lived in Gunma Prefecture and drove a Nissan Silvia S14. He found the best parts of the prefecture, and the country, are often the places that are a bit of a drive beyond the typical destinations. And the best experiences you can have are the ones that you share with the amazing people you meet on the long, winding road.

During a short return in 2015, he rented a Toyota 86, called on some old friends, made some new ones, and went for a drive through nostalgia. This is his cool, yet heartwarming, video about Gunma and its people.
