And for those of you that DON'T live 15 minutes away from the speedway. It's raining

Well got home and am exhausted.......that was a FABULOUS day...........

Scion was awesome to get us all the passes to the race.......AWESOME.......

It was a shame that Gushi's clutch broke but we got to see him quite a bit close up and check out his car.........he was very cool........

Some powerful cars out there today........and all the drivers adn teams and sponsers really went out of their way to make it fun......the Pits were super cool........We met one driver Joon Maeng walking around the pits......he was really nice and asked us if we wanted to see his car.......of course we did......he took us back behind the ropes to the car and let us check it out and poped the hood and everything...........monster of a car it was....

Ken Gushi came back to the Scion tent and signed autographs for every one......and even came out and signed Cindy's hood for her.........Scion let her bring it back to the gated area to do it......thanks for that......she is still smiling......

Pictures probably willnot be up tonight.......got hundreds to sort through.....gonna take a while.........

This was AWESOME! Had such a good time, Brett and I both loved it, and SCION gave us an awesome deal and really took care of us. It was fun to half-show my car finally as it's all come together too!

That was the best event I've been to for scion, hands down.

Somehow I managed to get a little sunburn on my cheeks so I guess the sun did come out to play!

Again, that was AMAZING, it was great getting to meet new faces and see some old ones Man I just can't believe how great that was! And Erik is thrilled because now I'm encouraging him buying yet another 86 Well I've got about 300 something pictures to start going through woohoo!

That was GREAT! My first drift show, and Scion really put on a great event. Towards the end I got really tired, was up 28 hours, and I am glad I made it home.

Sucks that Gush's car broke, but at least we got to see him during practice, and one of his pit guys gave us tires from the tC! Of course we had to get them signed

Everyone's cars looked awesome yesterday even though it was raining off and on. I have pics, but my battery is dead. It was nice to meet everyone! Thank you again Scion!

That was awesome. Thanks Scion VIP. I cant wait for another drift event. I will probably be liv ing in CA next year so maybe i can go to Infenion at Sonoma and see these guys there.

Free stuff rocks too. Thanks to Scion and all the other vendors. It was also great seeing everyone. I emt alot of new people at Show for a Cause and it was good to see them at FormulaD. But it will be my last time seeign everyone for awhile. Be back in about 3 months. leave on Thursday.

Oh and Millen sucks. Sam Hubinette got so robbed. He is the best. I like Gushi but Sam has been my guy since the beginning. I love Vipers.

Yea they just felt sorry for his suckiness and figured Sam can still win the championshiop cause he is the best without this win. They wanted to reward Millens suckiness.
