The Official "Drift Carnage photo thread"

i decided to start this thread for everyone to post up some of the damage they've incurred... since we all know we've spent a ton of money on blown up body kits/fenders/tires/etc....

here's some from my scrapbook...

2 blown tires and lost the rear bumper..


bangin doors at Pro Am Nationals


running over bumpers at Formula D Mexico 08


tappin Tanner's door at Formula D Rd. 7 08


putting it in a little too deep during the 1 more time...


Late entry = tire wall


blown trans... one of many..


wall tap at Long Beach Formula D 09



ASB 09... more door carnage..


and a blown tire to end the day and finish the side..


deep into the wall at Formula D Vegas 09

What do you guys do afterwards?

Bang the hell out of it and then widebody/etc?

I've been worried about tapping the rear just because of the body paneling. Too many little curves and **** for a novice body worker to make em puurty again.

So far just my front bumper @ PIR.
Rub strips and huge *** drainage thing. Duct tape, spray paint, and 2 part epoxy fixed mine

Justin's car has been around for so long! It's so sick that you've been able to be successful in pro driving with the same chassis you started drifting with.









The red car hasn't had as spectacular of a career yet...

First crash, hit the rear corner on the wall and bounced the front end in. Replaced rear 1/4 panel and pulled the front out.





Then first event after getting everything fixed and painted, tagged the wall getting that outside clip at HIN Tampa on like my 3rd run, and then popped my motor like 2 runs later



Then went to D1 Miami and had a really bad weekend, and totalled the car.








I got the car driveable, but it was pretty much done. Chassis was bent pretty good, but I kept driving it like this for the rest of the year.



Then at some point I blew a rear tire and tore my good rear over off, and then doing a test drive down the road at the shop my hood blew open and broke my windshield and the cracked my hood. Can't find any pics though.

It was a pretty serious zombie for a few months.

Then a couple weeks ago at a local event I was being really careless (driving an already junk car, what do you expect?) And did this:





So now it's officially done, but I've been working on a new chassis for the past month, and it's going to be so much more legit.

I have yet to really smash into anything... we run on a road course here in NJ and there are not many walls... I've done my share of landscaping though. I'm such a noob.
