drove Thursday all the way to Miami, non-stop, no sleep, almost ate at a dirty ass miami Dennys (Bugs and non-clean bathrooms) Went and ate at Ihop instead. Got to Track saw Nomura, Tanaka, Ueno, Wang, Taniguchi and other insanely clean drift cars. Met cool people, Drivers, crew; It was hurricane drift all day, lots of wall eating car action, I went on to qualify w/ RT615's..I qualified 22/46 didnt make top 14. *the 16 drivers from D1 USA :round 1 california didnt have to qualify yesterday they were already seated drivers. so they chose 14 from yesterdays 46
Tom barnhart's KA-T car had mad angle
Sherman and Boxmod are currently in the super 16 round. Skill level was insane*pics*: cell phone pics from a dude there:
This dude entered clutching kicking SUPER early but said whats up to the wall understeering in the wet w/ Rt615


This dude's car was SO sweet, he was already a seated driver from CA but wrecked from our florida hurricane rain practices, lost grip and slid backwards as if on ice to the wall. 50+ mph

Sammy tiger also did very well that day, however hit the wall, but went on to try and qualify after replacing the destroyed gas tank, and tweaked subframe.
