Attachment 242866 Formula DRIFT Enters Evergreen Speedway Evergreen Speedway is the oldest track on the circuit and was originally built as a horse-racing track. Located in Monroe, WA, Evergreen Speedway, is only a short distance from Seattle. The Northwest fans are some of the most die-hard drift fans in the nation. The energy and excitement is often compared to that of Irwindale and the original House of Drift. The events headline moniker, Throwdown, lives up to its name as drivers push their vehicles to the limits of the tracks banking and tight transitions through the course resulting in one of the most exciting action-packed events of the season.

Kari, you should do the SCCA drifting event on 7/31 in Bremerton. There's no girls in the pro drift circuit anymore, you could wow everyone going sideways then feed your crew a Kari cake.

I am trying to figure out how to make it but it just seems unlikly

More like replace tires and maybe your lungs too.

And be ready to vacuum the inside of the car, mine still has dust and tire bits from the last time I was drifting :/
|
No pictures??? I thought Leon would have some up by now???
|
I took over 1,000 pictures and during a quick look i found only a few decent ones. I need to get an external HD because if I unload all the pictures I have 80mb of HD space left. This week...

So im to lazy to photoshop/editing.
I was really just playing with shutter speeds. I think these were shot on 1/30 using a 85mm 1.8 lense with a filter. https://img849.imageshack.us/img849/8366/fdbh.jpg https://img846.imageshack.us/img846/5892/fda.jpg |

Ok so super crazy late. Sorry! It was a lot more of an event than I thought I could handle originally. So as many of you heard, I gave up on taking pictures of cars after the DTP car show. I present to you the models from Formula D!
