good thing you didn't go jedi...it was terrible. Luckily i got in free. There were probably a total of 200 people there...hahaha Normally irwindale hosts up 10,000 people during a good drift event but this was just sad...i was hangin out with the HKS guys the whole time. It was cool to see Ueo, Nob Tanaguchi, and Orrido drift (made a fool out of all the american drivers) but that was about it. It was so obvious to see the difference in skill with the Japanese drivers vs. US. I know the U.S. drivers are getting better but the J-guys are still on another level. I give the U.S. drifters atleast 5-7 years when they can really compete against them.

rhys millen is sick! He's probably the only U.S. driver that can put up some what of a fight against the Japanese drivers.
