im there. trying to go both days. i live so close i hear the races on the weekends. dont you just love waking up to the sound of roaring engines at 8 o' clock on a saturday morning. the best one was the 2005 event against hubinette and aono with those 8 vicous runs. now they have the limited 4 runs because of the 86's overheat =[ they take the fun out of everything

05-12-2007, 12:34 AM
they did tandem twice today, only qualifying runs were sinle.

oh btw Bill Sherman (drove the XAT Bandit last year, enjuku driver this year) was absolutely KILLING IT today. Every run was huge! Hampsha was running really hard too.

wasn't mcquarrie supposed to be running a porsche?

porsche isnt ready so hes driving the S15.

porshce isnt ready so hes driving the S15.

I didn't get a chance to make it down to the pits today. That blows though, b/c i was looking forward to seeing the porsche.

I thought the corolla with "RETAKS" on the side actually said V-TAK at first, then i got a better look. lolol

BuBBa DRiFT

i was saying "The Vetak Corolla seems to be doing good." Everytime I mentioned that car I said Vetak. My friends were getting pissed cause they didnt know the joke lirl. I got a pic with Dai. I met them all practically. I went picture happy with every car in the pits and ran out of room and battery to only get a couple runs. I got a tire from teh Vetak Corolla and got it signed by Dai. Forsburg (sp?) killed it. I got a good shot of Dai hitting the s14. By the way, I was sitting right at the exit of the Horseshoe, and what a great angle for pictures. You see every corner in perfect view. I will have pics and videos up soon.


Edit: Sherman should have beaten Millen. Hands down. When he went almost sideways on that exit, I flipped. Millen was practically straight on the same line too.

:werd:

it was good to see more variety in the competitors' cars, and it's about time the imports started giving millen & hubinette a run for their money.

My day was pretty terrible. On the drive there I hit a flying trashcan that fell off the back of a truck at 85mph. Fifteen minutes after we arrived at the track, our cooler with beer and lunch in it got jacked. Then to top it off, my kid pissed his pants. I got to see maybe an hour of drifting.

You seem like a big Yoshi fan like I am. He gave my buddy and I a set of tires off of the Rockstar and signed them for us. Very cool guy. I was thrilled that I got to meet him.

Why does everyone hate Millen so much? I think he's one of the best out there. But everytime someone mention his name, people boo. I don't get it.

down_shift
05-14-2007, 01:59 AM
it wsn't because of him it was because of his driving. Rhys had really shallow angle. Instead he just drove really close to the other car. Bill Sherman (s13 w/ huge wing) should have advanced.
