[PANCAKES!]

Just wanted to say thanks to Freddie & the crew at Auto Fashion for letting me have another chance to show w/ them and have another unforgetable weekend!!! The meet was okay, it was cold and lonnnnggg!!!! (2-day event) Some highlights of the weekend for me were, Shin of Airrunner letting me play w/ his remote controlled Air suspension on his LS460 (It was fun trippin folks out)!!!, Messin w/ Tyrese Bedford aka Tyson Bedford! LOL!!!!, Thanks to freddie for letting me kinda have a taste to promote and sell Airrunner! (Enjoyed that!) Thanks to Falken for buyin us dinner!!! Congrats to Vauhgn Gitten Jr. (Mustang) & Falken for wining D1 for the second time and becoming this years Drift King!!!! HAhahahaha! It was fun meeting Vaughn and watchin him get so wasted lastnight!!!! He's Hallairious!!!!! Got to rub elbows w/ a few of the Falken gurls which was coo as well!!!! Also it felt good to get called out by the Falken Team as the "VIP guys!" and given us props!!! Thanks again Freddie and AutoFashion for another great experience and can't wait for the next event! Here's the pics I took! (Didn't get amy drifting footage cause of all the smoke and my camera in't that great, + there will be tones of better footage on the event floting around the Web!) EnjoY:

Saturday it wasn't really packed, that's when they had there little pre-show touranment,
but Sunday (the main day) it was pretty packed!!! Not close to 20K though, I would say maybe a couple thousand, closer to 10K people maybe!

There's nothin like watchin Drifting LIVE!!!!
Picture & video just dosen't do it any justice!!!!

He also won sundays USA vs Japan exhibition match up against Team Falkens Mustang. Then the final event of the weekend, The World Drift Competition where 12 countries were represented, Von Gittin from Falken won that one against the worlds top class drivers.
