thanks bro... I guess I never though of how bad the outcome could have been. the cage helmet and stuff made me feel safe. I notice as soon as I got the cage 3rd gear drifting toward the wall didnt seem so scary..... good and bad hahhaa.

[Piner]

So I guess that means you will be missing the autum matsuri too? Man that sucks I was hoping to see you there.

[BigGameHit]

yeazup ill be missing it all man.,...

first day back on the track since the wreck a few weeks back.



















First day back on the track following the biggest wreck of my drift career. We are just not regular people lol.... This video came from my earlier sessions. I started having issues with my camera and could not capture my better runs. Do to bracing modifications, the car is much stiffer than the last which was something I had to get use to in the early part of the day. Once I overcame the initial feeling of the car, I felt right at home and began attacking the wall portion of the track in sections. The next time out, ill be able to put it all together. The track conditions were wet and dry

I'm just tuning in for the music now lol.


I give you props for driving with the wipers on, me personally... I would just just wipe before a run then just go at it no matter the condition. Wipers just ruin the train of thought.

[BigGameHit]

yea I forgot to apply rainex.. hahah in the beginning it was annoying the hell out of me
