May 7th and 8th is pretty much my favorite days of the year. Its like Christmas in the middle of summer for car enthusiasts here in Atlanta. Formula Drift is without a doubt THE automotive event of the year, nothing else can touch it in my opinion. If you have never been, you just wont fully understand that statement and brush it off as me just being over dramatic. If you have gone then theres nothing you can do but agree with me cause we both know Im right lol. The sight of these INSANE drift cars coming down the hill at 90MPH+ and blowing there tires off feet from you is something that, while your watching it, it really doesnt sink in…its just too much badassness. Once again this year I had a media pass to get a little closer to the track and go places most people cant. I wanted to make this blog post to give out desktop wallpaper’s of the top the finishers but you can see all my photos from this past weekends event by checking out my HOME PAGE
Chris Forsberg and his NOS Energy Drink Nissan 350Z was #1 in Atlanta last year. This year he left with a respectable 3rd place finish…
2nd place went to the man in the Monster Energy/Falken Tire Ford Mustang known as Vaughn Gittin
Dai Yoshi finally comes out on top with a #1 finish in his Discount Tire/Falken Tire Nissan S13
So…..how many weeks do we have left till Formula Drift 2011?!?! UGH. Hurry the hell up May 7th and 8th!!!!
