Default D1 Grand Prix Pictures =D

http://www.nrgonline.org/?nrg=pictures click on D1 Grand Prix.

The event was great. well worth the 20 bucks. I didnt wait in line, friend was waiting for me, because i went to get food for us =)

lots of good action, great cars to check out, the ricey cars where under the stand, no one really care to look at them LOL.
i only took 151 pics, i tried to get 200+, but their were way too many people at this event, it was sold out after 2 hours of opening the gates.

i also got 10 videos, ill get them online soon.

The D1 Grand Prix was OFF THE HOOK! If you were in SoCal and you didn't go, you missed a damn good time! I was also nice to see not too many riced out POS cars...though there were quite a few...thank god for the low # of Hondas....

Anyways, here's a like to a little movie I recorded using my Digital Camera...not quite DV but it's only 3.12 megs.....

This is Ueno Takahiro driving the T&E Vertex Soarer vs. Koguchi Yoshinori in the Falken 180SX....

that would be a hard thing to do.
They only do them in california, because of its sponsors.
Drifting has been around here for a while, but its been gettin mainstream.
cant wait for next year's D1 event, although their will always be other drift events to go too.
But california always set trends, and they do spread on east to other states. so soon, some might get to see it themself.
I can already see it now, people trying to drift, and running into street poles hah.

but their will always be good togue runs
