Yea me neither, this was actually my first drift event I've seen in person. Everything else I saw was basically on video, let me tell u its a lot better when you see it for yourself. Also having a media pass and getting onto the track makes it a lot better too

Thats funny I was at the 247motoring booth, right next to the ground control guys. I didn't even notice the KW booth, but then again I was snapping pictures most of the day.

That takes so much skill when you see two drivers tandem drifting.

It's not rice, it's functional. Ok, maybe the body kits aren't very functional, but the wings are. Regardless, I think it's fun to watch for a little while.

Cool pics.
