This past weekend we a had a local exhibition event with 4 Formula Drift drivers/cars and we had a lot of fun. Joon Maeng with his 240sx 1200hp LS supercharged V8, Corey Hosford with a 350z LS V8, Jeremy Lowe with his FC RX7 and Chelsea Denofa with his GTX28 KA24 weekend warrior Silvia.
Since my local S-Chassis club was invited to exhibit our cars, we were able to hang out with the drivers and their cars a lot more than the average crowd. Joon Maeng had a go at some drifting in my car with me as passenger, and even tho my E-Brake cable overstretched on his 1st hard pull of the lever, the car had no other issues after all hard clutch kicking and high revving he did; so he certified my car as drift ready.
My wife was fortunate enough to get a ride along as passenger on his 1200hp beast. The pilots were all great with the crowd, as they are all friendly and goofy at the same, true to the nature of the sport. Worthy experience all around.
Thank god I have no idea how to do burn outs, since a couple of our local cars left the event with blown transmissions. Live and learn I guess.
I might post pics/videos later.
P.S.: Joon left us his contact, as he commented he will be selling the 240sx in case any one is interested.
