"September 1, 2006 - Automotive subcultures collided when California's Irwindale Speedway hosted the first-ever NASCAR vs. D1GP drift-off. Some of NASCAR's most famous names hopped into borrowed D1 cars to show the world that they too can turn right. All joking aside, this event was an opportunity for two very different sets of drivers to have fun, try something new and raise a lot of money for charity. This NASCAR vs. D1 event was hosted by Kasey Kahne, and accordingly all proceeds went to benefit his Kasey Kahne Foundation."

I thought this article was pretty interesting, especially learning most of the nascar guys just spun out. Also Robby Gordon hit the wall in Rhys Millen's GTO.
