Default Formula drift 2011

I went to Formula Drift Friday to watch practice and qualifying but forgot my camera, I also went Saturday for the main event and I rememberd my camera and took lots of pics. It was a very nice couple of days not to hot and not to cold, I even got a sunburn now I want to go put my face in a big bucket of ice.

Saw this in the parkinglot



I like this old Datsun 510 it has alot of rust andthepaint is rough but I still think its cool looking.



They swaped in a newer engine

Joon and his RX8. I dont know how to spell his last name

I dont think they do drags at evergreen speedway, you might be thinking about pacific raceways down in the Kent Covington area.

I don't drift I just watch. do you drift? Did you go for both days or just saturday?
Did you get any pics? You will find that the jeeps are easy to work on and if you use the search you can find alot of usful info fairly easy but good luck with fixing up yor 88 xj
