First off, the show was unbelievably stupendously freaking awesome! Ive watched some drift videos before but seeing the guys from japan in action was an unforgettable experience. Here are a couple pics till i can get them all uploaded and scanned. These are the pics i took on my digital camera that i was using for backup while i was loading my film camera.

Thanks to Adrian, aka Mac Guyver, for making me a fake wristband and Lyndon for having a gluestick in the car so i could glue the band together. The makeshift wristband let me get next to all the professional photographers and in the middle of the action.

the almighty fake wristband.


komatsu-san's 180sx - some lucky dood got to keep his n1 muffler after it got dented and beat up pretty bad after one of the runs.






Signal's Silvia - beautiful car!


Koguchi-san's 180sx - inches off the rail...this one left azenis bits all over my face and hair














wish the images could have came out as vivid as my memories. thank you we-todd for hosting the pictures.

seeing as how people were getting there t-shirts, jeans, and cell phones signed by them. My friend decided to drop off our first roll of film at a one hour photo place so we could get some shots autographed.

Wow, sweet pics. Nice idea with the wristband also.

 

I would've loved to see them in action...

 

Very nice pics bro! Wish I could have got that close

 

damn, sick *** photos, good thinking with the fake wristband, otherwise we wouldn't have such quality upclose pictures.....show's how close the red 180sx really was from the wall...that guy was INSANE!

 

Sorry Drew, those bastards said I couldn't leave a ticket for you, that I had to walk you in. Gayness. Plus, no video cameras allowed! Oh well, the show was still fun and I got some nice pics.
