Top Drift Round 1 – Recap
Sun’s up! 6:30AM. People are waking up to the sound of race cars unloading from trailers, diesel engines pulling tows driving thru their camp sites and the smell of race fuels. Tech and registration started and followed by a drivers meeting; 40 competitors total for the day. We had to cap it, as there are 12 people in the “waiting list” trying to get in. Some top contenders from XDC that registered to compete at TOPDRIFT started rolling in – Mike Pollard, Gleb Antonov, Lance Feliciano and David Briggs. At 9AM the practice started. Judges were on site and watching everyone on practice. Giving them tips on how to drive the course.
You can spot them on top of the judging station. Hung, Hiro, Henry on the radio ordering pizza , JTP and Brian Bridges the 2009 Takatori Team owner. Also in this picture you can spot Bernard, Eric Hill and some Norcal people.
