Sadly he died on the 1st of February 2010 during the evening due to a motorcycle accident.The entire Team Toyo Malaysia would like to express our condolences to Kuroi-san family and Team Toyo Japan. It is a great lost to all of us. Kuroi-san, is a very humble person and cheerful during our past few meetings. It is sad now that we lost him and he will always be remembered.He loved cars from and early age and dreamed of getting his license, when he did the first car he got was a four wheel drive as he was into WRC at the time. He enjoyed dirt driving but ran out of money for repairs to his car so he bought a Nissan Silvia (S13) and turned to drifting. He practiced a lot but as he mainly did it alone he couldn’t tell whether he was any good, so he studied the drift bible and some other books on drifting to try to improve. Though he never knew whether he was any good until he began competing against other people. He was the manager of the River Side Tuning Garage in the Osaka prefecture, so he sponsored himself.He has been competing in the D1 Grand Prix series since it began in 2001. He has always used a Nissan Silvia (S13) as he loves the way they drift. The Silvias he uses in the D1GP are not usual, his old one had an RB26 from a Nissan Skyline GT-R and his current car has a 2JZ from a Toyota Supra, as he likes the bigger displacement engines. Recently he has been doing well though his car is not always reliable,and in 2007 he achieved his first victory.Click link below to pay your tribute to Atsushi Kuroi...http://teamtoyo.com.my/?p=418</blockquote>
