    weird that our cars are pretty damn close to being identical.

    edit: p.s. what are you running for your passenger rear wheel. i like it..
    They are Azev Type Es (both of them in the rear are... one's just painted black and the other one is silver). 16x9 et15. So far it's the only set that I've seen in North America. I definetly want to hit up CA... hopefully one day with a car to slide. Seeing how the scene is in California, I'd like to see how a FL driver would compare.

    This was a drifting event. The place rented out was a road course (for the advanced drivers, the beginners got the skid pad).

        Badass. We've got one guy trying to get his license with a turbo miata, he did some drifting at a DE, we had few cars, and he took care to leave big gaps in between cars before he did his thing.

          well i have a drift event coming up on july 8th. i still have a lot of work to do on my car but i'll see if i can provide a lot of media.

          i'll look into some of the bigger events going on around here see if you'd want to run in them with me. it'd be a good time drifting with another e30. around here its only 240s and hachis. (cool cars, but too generic)

              Haha man, CA is ridiculously far. I don't see myself going there for an event anytime soon. :p

              Anywho, here's a video teaser that was sent to me:



              Enjoy! :)

                      video isnt working.

                      get some sponsors under your belt and im sure they'd fund a trip out here for a big event like streets of long beach or something.

                      p.s. whats the turbo setup your running? im going to start my turbo project soon since i have grad money rolling in.

                                Yea... some people see it, others dont. I dunno maybe Google's server is messed up.

                                Btw, the song selection for these "teasers" isnt mine, but the final video will definetly be some sort of rock. If anyone has some good suggestions let me know as I try to figure this out.
