:rolleyes

That's not just a skyline. It's Ken Nomura's Blitz Skyline!

For example:

person 1: what kind of a car is that?

person 2: oh, it's a charger.

person 3: #$%^&*!!! A charger?!?!? It's a 1969 Dodge Charger from the Dukes of Hazzard. The freakin General Lee!

Drifting is not a very profitable sport the guy in the ae86 only got $2000 for the win

hey cool! that was at our booth! hehehe, oh, i like his other sticker better tho, it was on the rear bumper over the exhaust until i think it was tanaka that bumped rear ends w/ kazama. it translates to " Women, booze, drift.... etc. Good for nothing person!" it sounds cooler in japanese tho hahaha!

dang didnt get to meet up with all you guys at the show. totally forgot that you guess would meet up. owells it was still a good show. what was with that last formation run ...they werent even on a tight formation i kno its hard to do but they are the "top drifters" no disrespect of course just was expecting nice even flow not pplz cutting across the track ( that was funny)..

Post by **mickee** » Mon Jul 07, 2003 4:24 pm

Were you next to an Asian guy with a brown hat/white shirt/jeans on?

Were you the guy who told me about Ken Gushi, the 16 year old kid?

If so, that was me!

fakts13 - Kazama is one of the cooloest drifteres there is. i know what sticker you are talking about over the exhaust...it was in japanese so i couldnt read it.

Here's a shot of me posing next to Nomuken.

Here's a shot of the ORC R32. I believe it was eliminated during the 2nd round. It's still sweet nevertheless.

Well I haven't posted my opinion on the event.

Definately one of the coolest things I have ever seen. It was worth the 40 hours on the road down and back.

I was watching trackside and my position was right in front of where Tanagachi in the HKS S15 Siliva ended up when he crashed in the finale. I love that car. Sad to see it crash but I am pretty sure I will be in the Option Video due to the fact I was standing right in front of the crash and I am 6'9" tall.

I will be back next year if it goes down again.

Post by **mickee** » Mon Jul 07, 2003 4:24 pm

next year??? lol the next drift event will be october 14 i believe at del mar fairgrounds....

ah.. gotta love residing in cali....
