So I went to Formula D on Saturday. It was so much fun and was a great experience. I used to date a guy who drifted and he was really good but drifting around in a parking lot and the occasional corners is completely different than the tandums these guys were doing. It was incredible. Best one was when the guy in a skyline got too close to the wall and hit it. Then he somehow managed to catch a banner with his wing and drifted with it. Then the last tandum was a Chaser vs the Skyline. Skyline and Chaser ended up crashing and the Chaser got stuck in the dirt ditch but the Skyline came out of it and ended up finishing the run.
Im so excited to go to Irwindale for the final round in October. -------------------- Cruisin down the street in my Infiniti...always lookin for my next trip to Sin City

mmmmm...i love the signal R34 GTR. I saw it at DX2 like 2 or 3 years ago. DX2 was a drifting event we had here. We had Signal Auto, and team Drift Extream there. Back then the R34 was just for road racing, but holy crap does that thing have some boost.
  and just because we are on the topic of Drifting...  lol if you dont know tsuchia...you dont know drifting. This post has been edited by Valo666: Aug 21, 2006 - 9:18 PM |

bad chaser... bad.... that skyline is no more incase anybody didnt catch that.
chaser went into the wall came off the wall tboned the skyline mid drift at around 60+mph put the skyline into the ditch, skyline comes out, flys like a bat outta hell, finishes his drift and proceeds to drift into the pits. keep in mind this last race that they did was because the announcer asked for it. it was not needed, and the skyline may still be in one piece if it wasnt for the announcer eggin em on... <<<<- ME ANGRY! -------------------- 94' ST Coupe - 5sfe Motor swap and brake swap.
