Matt, I am glad to hear these tires kicked ass.

 

great job matt & rob & the rest of the team!!!

 

Totally awesome show.
You guys did awesome.
As soon as I saw you start your burn out at the top of the hill.. the red smoke.. it all just clicked.
Red MX tire tracks on the shirt.. "What's your favorite color", hearing word of "special compound tires" when at dday.. lots of hints as to what the secret was going to be..

I can't wait to see what Enjuku and Kuhmo did to drifting
And as Taylor said.. the judges went totally crazy.

Though, I was hoping to see Rob do a standing/rolling burn out in the horse shoe when it was his time to show off. That would have been cool.

Either way.. congrats on getting the enjuku name, and showing what florida has to offer to everyone.

 

hehehe rice for your tires

 

Yes, I too was dissapointed. Take a hint from some of the other drivers. When in the top 16, and they are doing introductions.....that's the time to 'show-off'. Many drivers got out, threw shirts into the crowd. Some took the horseshoe backwards, or did donuts, or standing burnouts.

I know Matt is more concerned about 'technical', while Rob is a little easier going...but remember, in the end, it's a show. Give the crowd what they want, and the Top 16 introductions is the percfect time to 'go wild'.

Had both Matt and Rob made the top 16 (hint for Houston ) I would have loved to have seen both of the twins together (like alex and ??? did).

Build up the excitement, bask in the glory, and show'em how we do it in Florida!

As lame as it sounds.. things that would be rice on the streets, are actually pretty cool out on the track.

Like those flashy led valve stem caps.. they totally matched and looked awesome on the G35.

 

it would have been cool to have him just sit and burn gobs of smoke, but they told us all specifically NO standing burnouts ANYWHERE on the track. yeah, we wanted to see it too, but rob held back out of respect for the track, even though not many other people did.

 

W O W!

 

Ah, that does make sense. - nothing like having melted pavement on a race track.

speaking of not respecting the word of the track.. did anyone else catch when Tarzan took the vakamon viper around the horseshoe... like 80 times where he pissed off the track flag waving guy, while making gobs and gobs and gobs of smoke ----- that was so awesome.

 

that is understandable, and I know that most of you were up on the hill, but there are other things you could do to build the excitement....like having rob throw T-shirts to the crowd....They love that stuff.

Now if I could only talk the wife into letting me fly to Texas next month...
