SEDC II media.

Practice day held a little bit of a hard time in the first corner... but sunday practice I was nailing it. A ton of pressure on me during qualifying caused me to flub my runs. But I'm still more than happy with my performance.

Team DOA... guys. We rocked the house. We spent all weekend talking to people and inviting people back out.

Thanks to Mishimoto radiators. Thanks to you guys my overheating problems from last event were non-existant at this event! I told everyone about how great your radiator was working!

Will post more media as I find it.

Here's a couple photos of what was new for this event.


Radiator, and hoses.


28.9 mm sway bar. (made a huge difference!)

Next event on the list...

That's right... I'm in. Top 32 singles comp here we go. Got some work to do still, of course. But what fun would it be if there wasn't.

had some overheating problems last event... although it was hot as heck. And I definitely need to AT LEAST stiffen up the rear a little. Need faster initiations.

I guess we'll see what happens. I'll give it my all!

Triple threat 2 round 3 HD!

yay for HD video.

Triple threat 2 round 3

Started off the day sloppy but it felt good by the end of the day. Here's the media stuff I've found so far. More to come.

go pro camera

played around with fitment and made a little test video.

tires... headlights.

Well. Was out last night in the wal-mart parking lot till 2 AM swapping headlights. My bricks had broken clips, and chipped glass... and this guy had triple projectors (which i kinda like) with HID's, with all perfect mounts and such. He wanted to trade straight up. So I did.

Also, bought six NEW tires for the drift event... I'm insane....

Will Roegge is THE shit... hopefully one of these days I'll sneak into one of his videos.

seats?

Put the drivers side in, got the back seats out... mounted up the drivers side harness.





other than that... fuel pump is in. Car is running pretty good. Ready for the July event to be here already!

another day in paradise.

so. fuel pump is in, car feels great so far. Def running a little richer than normal though.

Snapped some pictures of the re-clear coated front end... Looks better. But not perfect. Needs a real paint job!




Started stripping the interior... including the seats, wish my new brackets were here!

safety first

pushed here by a post from marty on 240atlanta.

Description:
One reason safety is such a stress at American Drifting events is for reasons just like this one. At this Latvian Drifting event a S13 slides out of control and takes out several members of onlookers throwing some of them up to at least 15 feet in the air. Graphic Warning is advised before watching this video.
GRAPHIC WARNING. YOU WILL SEE PEOPLE GET HIT!


Lativa Drifting Accident - People Hit [Graphic Warning]

I've been a photographer at several events, and its easy to get annoyed or aggravated by the positions in which they will let you stand. But, In the end you've got to realize it's all about YOU. They're just trying to keep you safe.

Take care

ol days

haha. ran back across this video. Zach makes a cameo talking about how Nascar led to his passion for cars! Liar!

getting thing situated

So I've entered my first reputable, non-black hills event. I'll be driving at the July 11th event, so come out and show me some support!

Got a few things in line to do to the car before hand. Ordered some of it today.
including...
-Seat brackets for my racing seats
-another 4 point harness for passengers, since it seems like i'm going to have a good number of ride-a-longs
-a walbro fuel pump

After that stuff gets here I'm going to install it all. Put my s14 TB on the car, and do some exhaust magic... then it's going to top speed to have the SAFC installed and tuned.

Yeah, yeah... NA tune. Anything to get the tires spinning a little faster!

My personal quote of the day.
Live life to it's fullest each and every day!

hey

new here. Playing around!
