D1 GRAND PRIX ANNOUNCES THE CANCELATION OF 2008 POINTS SERIES
D1 Grand Prix USA has announced the cancellation of 2008 point series events.
Due to issues and timing from the Japan series, the D1 Grand Prix USA series is being cancelled for the 2008 year. After a successful championship event last November at Irwindale Speedway, we vigorously attempted to launch the 2008 U.S. series but have been unable to due to Japan’s delay on decisions and their focus on the Japan series. Our goal is to continue elevating and expanding the drift culture to the world. But at this time the official word from Japan is to focus on the Japan series for 2008.
It has been formally decided not to hold an event series in the U.S. but the "All Star World Championship" in November at Irwindale speedway is still scheduled to take place.
D1 Grand Prix apologizes for the series cancellation in the U.S. and plans to return the series next year.
Thank you D1 Fans.
