US Drift Nationals at Lowe's Motor Speedway coverage. **videos added*

What a good time and a great bunch of people. I had a blast even though I had some problems as usual, just a bit of bad luck. Just when we had got the car finally setup I am leaving the pits and run over my jack and to my luck my tire blows Oh well we put a spare on but it was a different size so now I had two different sizes in the back. The good thing is that the rear camber arm did it's job this time. Just by looking at the turner motorsport arm you can see the difference in quality and strength very easily compared to the previous Active Autowerke arm so this one should do the job. The other problem I had was with the charge pipe since it's the lowest point on the car and you will be able to see on some of the pictures.

I also managed to hit the wall but got very lucky on this one and only scratched the rear bumper . Overall a great event and the tandem runs was unbelievable! Thanks Carlos and John for getting the car ready and working your asses off to keep me in the competition.

Click on the picture below for the pictures. The pictures were taken by Carlos and John since I was out driving

hahahah yeah it is!!! when that dude first rolled up to my house on friday night and hung out for about 5 minutes...i knew it was gonna be a crazy weekend with him and matt and everyone else. They sure know how to have a great time and laugh. The event was awesome and it was also ridiculously hott...way too hott. Had an amazing time and would do it all over again. On the way back we could barely keep our eyes on the road so we decided to make a pit stop at a rest area and catch some sleep for about 1 hr. Instead we pulled in at 12:30 am and woke up at around 8:45am. pretty crazy but we were so tired.


Pegasus was the hero of the day

The M3 will never win uless some serious hacking goes into the suspension, and steering, also limited slip and gear ration turned upside down, massive torque top end..
