Formula Drift drivers on Twitter #followfriday #formulad
Since I write about Twitter last year, Im please to say that many more automotive people are jumping on board. And to my surprise, there are quite a few Formula D drivers with accounts. There’s a few that aren’t utilizing the service (looking at your Dmac) but perhaps that’ll change. Regardless, Ive put together a small list of Formula D drivers with Twitter accounts. Be sure to follow them during this weekend’s Round 3 at Wallspeedway in Jersey.
Quick recap of Triple Threat 2 RD1
Following FD Atlanta, Southeast Drift held their first of three Triple Threat events in Atlanta. And with a lot of the FD drivers still in town, you can imagine how insane it got. Ive seen so many people at a Turner Field event. All in all it was a blast although I really didn’t get the car dialed in until my very last run of the day. That and the damn exahust fell of twice during the event. I have a whole ‘nother post coming on that though.
NASCAR Drift
If you missed the Las Vegas NASCAR race yesterday you only needed to see one thing and one thing only. Not Kyle Busch’s punk ass winning or Ford motors blowing up every 100 laps. You only needed to see Jamie McMurray drift the entire turn 2 at over 150mph and at full lock without spinning or hitting anything. Furthermore, the commentators then compaired him to “Vaughn Gittin drifting star”.

AE86 Vinyl Wrap: Part 5
Got some work done on the Corolla this weekend. Finished up the driver side, the passenger door, installed a “home depot” lip and repainted our wheels. The car has to be done by Thursday, so expect a lot more updates over the next few days.
Another vid from Triple Threat 2
Awhile back my buddy Huy sent Amanda a video of me sliding at South East Drift’s “Triple Threat 2″ at Turner Field. Well…… she just now remembered to give it to me. So here
it is.
Thanks Huy!!!!
Recap: South East Drift’s “Drivers Only 2″
This past weekend South East Drift hosted their second “Drivers Only” private day at Turner Field in Atlanta. In typical form, they had a few grid. I was there on behalf of Drift411 since we were providing insurance for the event. Overall it was a good event. I got to yell at a bunch of Brazilian guys with no cents and a photographer who thought he was invincible because he took pics in Paris. LOL. And of course, its always enjoyable to watch drivers progress over the course of the day. My only complaint was the weather. The ambient temperature wasn’t too bad. The wind, however, was brutal.
