Yo,

I recently went to the NCDA's inaugural drift event at Thunderhill Raceway.

Their website:

I had a great time! I went out and got some cheapo tires for some old baloney slicer 15's I had lying around. Time to sacrifice those tires!

Props to Todd Ho who helped put on the event and to Head On Photos for taking the following spectacular shots.

Check out the Eye of the Tiger:



Smoke 'em if you got 'em!



FC's were in abundance, check out the black '91 Coupe driven by one of the instructors:



Dorifto Time!!



Still goin'...



It was a great event, I only spun out twice into the dirt! Heh.

If anyone wants bigger sizes of the photos, PM me and I can send you the original pics.

Enjoy!

Sweet! Man I drifted once in a parking lot with my buddy and his 240sx and I had my shitty *** RWD benz, i sucked *** but I had fun spinning out haha it was really easy to spin it. Do you think it was hard to do though, overall? When I get my TII I'm gonna try out drifting for sure!

 

that is absolutely incredible. The photography is amazing, too

 

I was just gonna say that, superb photography, oh and not bad driving either.

 

Yo,


Thanks guys! Do any of you know a good GIF animation program?

I have tons of photos that I could turn into an animation of me drifting, doing donuts...

Head On Photos hooked me up!

Kev...you rule excellent pics!

 

You can use MacroMedia Flash.

Just export as animated gif.



Those are some sexy pictures, thanks for sending full res ones.. got me a new desktop

 

Nice pics!
What tires did you use on the rears?

 

Yea awesome pics man

 

Those pictures are good enough to be set as a desktop background.

EDIT:

 

sweet pics kevin!. in the one it looks like the car is realy sqauting down under power or is that just from the smaller tires out back?

 

Nice pix. Are your TII wheels polished? They look so damn clean! How long did it take you to do?

 

Last one = my new desktop

Before--Carmelle Decesare
Now-----Rarest drifting

I need help

 

Aww man, I was thinking of going to that, but I had to go play a master class down at CSU Fresno... Looks like I missed quite a bit. Awesome pics, looks like some awesome driving.

 

theyre powdercoated white.

 

I use ulead gif animator works pretty good.. dl it on kazaa

 

Yo,


Yeah, the wheels are powdercoated white.

The car sat really low in the back, I was running some No-Name 195/50-15's in the back. I looked like a powerboat!

Heh.

Drifting was fun, but you really need to be in a car you are fearless in. Basically, a beater that you don't care if you hit a curb, tree, mountain with.

I was a little timid throwing my car sideways /before/ the apex...if I was in some $500 FC...I'm sure I could thrash it with reckless abandon.

If I was going to pursue drifting more seriously, I would get a beater FC, gut it, and drift that. Once I had grown comfortable with my skill set, then I would throw the shiny red one around. *grin*

Thanks to all for the props!

I missed all that fun to build the LS/VTEC project from hell

I can't wait till I get to take my car out of the garage and haul it to the track, it's been sitting so long! (I did manage to get most of the work done on it though, just a few more things to go!) Gotta love the GTUs, even if it is red...

 

Yo,


I've emailed everyone who's PM'ed me so far.

Please include your email address in your PM and make sure you can take about a 5 meg email.

*grin*

I will try and post some more pics tonight...
