You'll so want more of it. Ater the 1st ASB last year thats all i thought about was that track.

One tip, once you commit to the bank w/ concrete wall, keep your foot in it. A few cats lifted and their front snapped back to the right and they hit that nasty wall. I started off at the bottom and worked my way up higher and higher but still i need a ton of practice to nail the course.

yeh i have yet to hit a bank surprisingly

when i rode wit some people it seemed to be some room to play with. even to rip the ebrake mid entry in the middle of it.

ill prbly take my time with it and feel it out. then try to ride the wall like dug dug haha

banks are fun!

just remember even if you spin, if you stay on the gas youll be thrown down into the infield rather than shot at the wall if you lift/catch traction.

heres an oooold cell phone shot from when i was testing for a demo at our local circle track lol this is probably circa 06ish. back when i had a RB25 and no intentions of driving professionally lolthis was my last pair of REAL falken azenis st115's. i miss that tire.

I know D1 is coming to cali and some other places. Like always California is pretty deep with drift events. For the first time, in a long time we are having monthly drift events from JustDrift and VegasDrift so theres going to be plenty of track time for us down here.
