Vegas Drift / IFO 2013, today was a great day. I woke up late because my Alarm was set for yesterday at 8am, so I rushed and got my tires and tools loaded.
Then off to the races made it there about 10:30am 30 minutes after starting point, unloaded my tools, tires, and canopy and then I was off to tech inspect. Repping the group 220 that I joined a few months back. Awesome guys, and glade to see them out there doing the IFO as I was doing Vegas Drift.
Once the tech inspection was done I tossed on the first pair, that was balding Federals RSR’s this was technically a mistake as I should of at least put 70PSI in to make the tires not so grippy. With the tires on I was understeering bad.
This setup was a one track and over 20+ cars so each run was like 15 – 20 minutes waiting in line but atleast it wasn’t like at the IFO where it looked like each run was like 30+ minutes long. At start the track was intimidating with all the K-Rails but when I drove it once I was like, pfft. I let her rip when I started driving with the federals they got more grip as I run them more which is was causing me massive under steer by the 3rd run. So I swapped tires and put on my 50psi zeon tires and when I did that they started the mini competition.
I chilled watched the comp go on, when they are done I jumped back in my car and drove her some more. I was a bit sketchy with my rear end. But I was more paranoid then anything else, but I was fine every run I opened her up and give no fuck just as long as I had fun and gone for gold. I practiced the original clutch kick but this time I played with Shift Lock and attempted braking drift a few times. there was a few times I connected 90% of the course.
I feel really accomplished with my car this night. She gave me 0 issues what so ever. That is it for this year, 2014 will be coming soon and I have a few plans this next year.
I didn’t take many pictures due to I was driving all event, none stop and this is a plus for me normally I would be done 1 – 2 hours before closing. I feel very accomplished, very proud of myself, and I had the best fun yet this year. The Best of Vegas is defiantly my day.
