The ONLY way to sleep in an FC
 
This is what me and my friends going up to Colorado, Pikes Peak International Raceway, did to get some sleep. (plus some footage of the races)

wow.. that was pretty cool... I didn't know they had any drift events at ppir... shit I only live an hour from there.. when did that event take place?

I'm teh suck at video compression but I thought this was the smallest I could get it and you could still make out what cars they were ;). It takes like 3min for broadband so I thought it was digestable. I believe the Falken Driftoff was June 26th 2005. We had a blast! Only wish we rented a room and that the drive there wasn't so long...wow.

yeah thats looks sweet....I wish i was there

theman4444 09-11-05 09:09 PM

Okay, well after popular request and the fact that someone else did some more compressing cuz I suck at compressing. (Thanks SuperSonicBlue) Here is the vid down to 10mb. It's actually not that bad at that rate. Although nothing matched up with the original. The first song is the Ataris singing "In this Diary" the last song is "Last Train Home" by Lost Prophets. Thnks for the comments.

Wow! It must have been great!

Where there a lot of people there? Looked kind of empty from the video but that could be deceiving.

theman4444 09-12-05 12:42 PM

about 1000 people watching from the stands. about 500 in the race area competing and helping.

Damn, you guys must have been saving for that trip! 11hr drives in FCs with what gas costs. Not to mention costs to drive the course. Proof of reliability right there, all that distance to go drift (very harsh on a car) and still being able to drive them back home. Congrats, and some nice drifting also (was that a 240 aaron was driving because he looked like he had some expirience). Hey if anyone out there has any drift vids with first gens please post!

NOPR 09-12-05 02:29 PM

two threads for one video?

theman4444 09-12-05 06:33 PM

sorry about the double threads, I meant to put the thread link in one and it was originally in 2nd gen, but they moved it to Audio/Visual.

Haha, awesome idea for sleeping. I slept in the back of my S5 GXL when i was at Virginia International Raceway once. Really isnt that bad as long as your under 160 pounds :D

Looks like a BLAST!
