word up event, corolla view.

sup guys.

the fatlace event was great, trying out the new 4.7 was awesome. i was finally laying smoke with it. i ran 195/60/14 re950 potenzas all day. because of the new 4.7 and the courses only being 2nd gear, i went with 50 psi and only went through 1 pair, so i was very happy about that.. from my previous events, i usually go through alot more tires even though im just stock 4ag. this is because my tires are usually old junkyard tires and im on 3rd gear with alot of psi in the 60 range, so the laminate inside rips and i get huge mounds on my tires. i once only went through 2 laps around thunderhill fulltrack with some shitty old toyo tires before i had to come back!

the course layout was very fun, the main course being the most entertaining. i havent drifted in almost a year, and it took a little bit to get back into the groove at first...i mean i wasnt spinning/straightening out too much, but wasnt exactly drifting or being consistent as i wanted to... but in the middle-end of the day i could link both courses completely and was driving alot more like i wanted. it was a nice day, and was satisfied. very chill event and i would definitely recommend to have a nice laid back time. i even got to hear fatlace play one of my highschool friend's joint on the loud speakers.
heres a quick video of me that shane from limitless motorsports took of me, and my cousin uploaded. also, theres another video up on my facebook, but im waiting on a friend to upload it to vimeo sometime and ill post it up here.



i decided to just spin the car when i realized i went too wide so i wouldnt run into a bunch of cones haha! that last loop was a little hard to read at first, but later got the hang of it. its the same loop im going through in the "smoke wall" (which i fucking love!) picture john posted in a previous post.

other then that there isnt much other media besides what you can see through the album links grady and john posted, so heres another picture that i like alot from those sets:

peace!
