A huge thanks to Anthony C, as without him I would not have been able to have such a rad weekend. He lent me his drift car for the event, what a guy :)
Despite having the handicap of a car that wouldn't go into second gear, with my head hitting the roof, knees hitting the steering wheel, 120 less horsepower and no e-brake, I had one of the best drift weekends ever! It was awesome to get to drive with people at a much higher level than myself.
I got 2 full days of 2,3, and 4 car tandem, and got to run with my friend from vegasdrift, Nick Dizon, so that was a welcome surprise to see him out there. The weekend couldn't have happened without my main sponsor, Jim Guthrie with Guthrie Racing and Car Crafters. He did pretty damn amazing considering this was his first event. Another huge thanks goes out to Ben, Brian and Mikey for putting up with me all weekend long, fixing things and being awesome.
Here are the results. I was pleased to see I got 18th out of 48 drivers, not bad at all. Pics will be in the next post :)
