Akira: got your pm and replied. Yeah I was the big guy with the camera. You don't know how many people ask us where we got the jerseys, and i have no idea where.

Yeah I got burnt too. Well I never get burnt, tommorrow i'll have the sickest tan. i did get sunstroke though i think. I'm so beat, but that could be from shooting both events back to bacjk though, but I aint complaining. Love covering these things, especially today.

I was getting backtalk from some security guys and event marshals abouut getting to close but i was like screw it i'm getting my shots. The whole security and registration was a bit overkill, but i can understand where they're coming from.

Signal Auto is now offically stationed in California and apart from building crazy drift machines, they have a serious NSX powered chop top Civic

So shipping and transporting the cars within North America isn't such a big deal since they do it all over the USA anyways

SW20 MR2 Way to put this 'gatherer' fellow in his place. I laughed so hard when I read your reply. Also now notice he shut up?

This clearly shows this kid loser has no idea that putting on an event costs money. Hello Wally Cleaver welcome to the real world!
I went to the event and paid and it was worth every dime. I applaud your friends. Much better than Importripoff could have ever been. Any more events planned for the spring time frame?

I'm not totally sure what the guys have planned for next year. My guess is that they will have at least 4-5 drift clinics like they did this year and at least one big event like the Signal one. I've heard a few things from them about what they might do, but I can't/won't say anything to the public since it's not official. Whatever it is, I'm sure it will be fun though and much bigger!
