HIN/FD pro am qualifier 1st

whats up guys checking in still wishing i was in a fc. But anyways the 240 is treating me well.

i went to the Formula d/HIN qualifier to go to pro am to try and make it out to phoenix,AZ and made some stuff happen.








Deff was the most fun i have ever had at an event and the best drivers to compete with.

yeah he was looking good. had a lot of wheel hop. someone should tell him to fix it. maybe softer springs? calvin (not sure if he is on here) flipped his fc. slapped into the tires and dominated his car. i dont know who the other 3 guys were that had problems. didnt even see them run.

yea his car is pretty thrashed. i'd be surprised if he had an alignment done before he went down there. pretty sure a lot of his arms are bent.. haha

last year at the formula d invitation event i was scared his wheel was going to fall off or at least bend a tie rod coming off the big bank at evergreen with all the bumpsteer he was having lol
