Watching various cars bump and grind with eachother and eat wall, and have some very close and serious competition. I leave you all a couple of my fav pics that I snapped at the event...

 The place was sold out. They said that event was made yesterday the MOST people that have ever been in the city of Irwindale at one time for as long as they can remember, lol! 10,000+ people were in attendance there. Max capacity. They had to shut down around 4pm the parking and ticket entrances because of the crowd size. It was crazy.

I knew you'd start this post....
I'm kinda disapointed i didn't get to go though. I live close enough where i can hear it at night so it was very tempting to try and go. A lawyer buddy was supposed to get me vip tickets for work i did for him, but i guess he'll just pay me cash. I would've rather had the tickets, duh. I actually had to drive by it yesterday  on the way to work and it looked like parking was nasty; lines of cars around the block. Irwindale is sort of a small city especially in that area and i'm sure it had no problem breaking the 10k people mark. So many nice cars i saw just waiting to get in or in the area. Very unusual for this area. Got any more pics matt? those two were nice, wish i was there.

Ok, just a few more pics from it...
First is an awesome 4door R34 GT-R Skyline that was there competing (almost ate wall BAD during the first round, but he saved it braking going COMPLETELY 90* sideways which was amazing. Next is the awesome Falken tires S13 (180SX) of Koguchi Then is the kinda blah Tein 350Z demo/show car. Yeah, this car proves why the Tein Flex are NOT a performance suspension system. Get SS, HA (HE for 240ZX's), or RA/S if you want performance. Then last is what happens when something goes wrong to probably one of the best drift cars that graced the track during the event, it was taken out in the first round, my guess is a tie-rod snapped. Eitherway this car 90% will never see drift again. Oh, unfortunately I had my camera in still mode rather than video mode when the wreck happend. Enjoy everyone.

Same as HIN, $25 bones. I had the $40 VIP tix though that got you pit access as well as ground access to view the competition from the wall that a few got close enough to crash into!
