It was a long weekend, and a great event. Plenty of fierce battles between old friends and veteran drifters alike. It made for an amazing time, and a fantastic weekend.After the dust settled… I almost lost an eye, had 6 destroyed tyres, and a 3rd place trophyDetails to come shortly.
What can I say. The third and final installment if Southeast Drift‘s Triple Threat series was an amazing finale. I had a feeling going into this event that two things would happen: my camera would fall off a car, and someone would wreck. Both wound up happening (to me)… but such is inevitable. The advanced-tandem sessions were getting closer with every run. Everyone has stepped their game up. It’s amazing to see that Atlanta still kills it… through thick and thin.

Multi-car madness.
This is what it’s all about.
KILL.
I came across a really great replica that the user “cobratuner” on forzamotorsport.net made of my e46 in Forza 2! I don’t have an XBOX 360, and haven’t played the game to know what goes into making a replica… but I can’t imagine it is an easy task.
P.Haire said you get only basic shapes and fonts to work with… which makes this that much more impressive.The livery is done up on an e46 M3, since I’m guessing the game doesn’t offer a 325Ci like mineI can’t get over Dosa’s hood graphic… the detail is intense!
SO SICK! Thanks to “cobratuner” for all the hard work.
I need to get an XBOX 360!!!
Jacob from Everything Drift sent me a picture from Formula Drift Las Vegas of some new tees that I designed for them. We’re working on some crazy designs and crazier prints… so keep an eye out for more soon.
New full-page ad I designed for Slide Style™. A new lineup of Slide Style™ goods is in the works… so stay tuned.

I’m STILL recovering from this weekends final installment of the Southeast Drift’s Triple Threat series. These events keep getting sicker… and Atlanta keeps bringing it stronger. More on this event soon… I’m exhausted.
CBS 46 News came out to Turner Field yesterday and did a nice feature on the Southeast Drift event at Turner Field.
We’ve been drifting in the Turner lot since 2004… and I’m amazed that a news station hasn’t made it out sooner
I had seen a similar video of a Z3 being built the last time I was up at the BMW Zentrum in Spartanburg, South Carolina… but I had no idea there was a video of an E46 being built. The voiceover is in German, but a picture speaks a thousand words… and these words are awesome.
The guys over at Unnatural Inc. hit me up to rock a t-shirt design for their Drift Invasion series. I wanted to run with a similar style to the flyer I designed for them… but I also wanted to make a print that guys and girls could both wear. I can’t wait to see the printed product!
Ryan rendered a quick texture-mapped version of the E46 model on a medium render setting. Take a look!
I was up at the S3 Magazine headquarters on Friday to thrash around guitars, and they had a copy of the Drifting Performance Handbook by Calvin Wan. I was flipping through and found a picture of my e46 listed under the “European FR” section of the “Selecting A Drift Car” chapter! The book has an older picture of me competing in round 2 of the 2005 Formula Drift season at Road Atlanta.
Calvin Wan has been drifting before it’s birth here in the states. He’s an amazing driver… and his Drifting Performance Handbook is very thorough. Definitely a must-have for any drift-enthusiast. You can get them via Motorbooks, or at any major bookstore.
Pick one up and support drifting.Special thanks to Calvin and Antonio for including me in the book!
Ryan is making some killer progress on the 3D model of my e46!rnI cannot get over some of this detail.IT IS AMAZING!

The detail on the wheel/tyre combo is simply stunning. He modeled the Racing Dynamics RGP’s perfect. There are even threads on my extended lug bolts! THAT is attention to detail!
