Skyline crash @ Formula Drift Houston

[NM Drift Group]

And people always complain why FD has such strict safety rules. I'm glad that he was ok!

SCCA PRO RACING sanctioning has those requirements for accidents just like that.

Helps to follow that SCCA rule book when putting safety into the car.

I'd rather be heavier and safer than lighter and vulnerable.

Another point is you gotta be able to walk away from the car before competing because it definitely requires you to push it out there.
That bump he locked up on set my car down to the ground in full drift. I got back to Albuquerque with the test pipe on my exhaust hanging by a bolt.

The driver of the Skyline when it crashed I am told was from Team Bubba Drift. He drove the El Camino the next day and was knocked out of the tandam run by the Supra. Great Event!!!

im driving the el camino and have been all of 2005, derrick was driving the skyline b/c his new 240z didnt get finished in time for houston, however in 2004 he did drive the el camino, but now i am driving it,

not to be rude but ive never wrecked a car, and i fought my way into top 16 and i was just tryign to set the record straight, sorry if you find that offensive but im just trying to set the facts straight, as i dont want to have peopel thinking i wrecked the car as im driving the el camino now, and i just wnated to make sure my name and crap was clear of any confusion. again, not to be rude, just tryign to let everyone know that wasnt me, and who i am. derrick is still part of the bubba drift team so there is some confusion and a lot of people still dont know, but i made this post to try to 1) clear up confusion and 2) fix the misinformation.

Plus, after Atlanta, backup cars are no longer allowed.

that was the first video i saw of the accident. the poor car is sitting in my garage while i contemplate what i'm going to make of it. can't figure out if i should try to fix the car, or drop it all into a 240. oh well.

You can always give it to me.

Sorry to hear about that. Never fun. Least the driver was ok.
