Well the time has finally come for me to qualify for formula d. We have had our testing days to setup the car, and besides the motor almost being blown up, we should have a great shot at the qualifier. We depart around lunch time tomorrow (friday) and head to irwindale speedway.

The event is on saturday, we were really excited until we looked at the forcast. It will be raining the whole time. And at a track like irwindale this could mean trouble with all the walls. Not to mention that my car is pretty much impossible to drive in the rain.

Well we will do our best, and no matter the outcome, we will have as much fun as possible.

Wish us luck.

Foo, you crazy. Its 'on rain!

"Saturday:

Mostly cloudy with a chance of rain in the morning...then rain likely and a slight chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon.

Highs around 60.

Southeast winds around 15 mph in the afternoon. Chance of rain 70 percent."

Jackie Johnson from KCAL sez so!

Best bring the umbrellas!

Good luck!

shock don't blowing up you motor until the last run and then doing it right in front of the judges so shrapnel blows by their faces and they cream their pants whilst the 1980 USSR olypmic hockey team drinks 55 gallon drums of vodka in the near background...

blu808 · 01-13-2006, 12:31 AM

I will be the one drinking 55 galons of vodka when my motor blows.

driftshot · 01-13-2006, 12:45 AM

Nan Desu Ka?! · 01-13-2006, 01:00 AM

You have my best wishes, Now SHOCK KICKING ASS AT IRWINDALE!

xeros · 01-13-2006, 01:34 AM

No see, you got the v8 in there yet it doesnt seem to be much more stable then a Rtary for some reason hahaha. Its all in the tuning.

ramblux · 01-13-2006, 01:37 AM

See you guys there!

***FaLKoN240*** · 01-13-2006, 04:05 AM

If you don't get first. . .don't come home...

Just kidding. Good luck, you should own everyone's faces.

SHOCK PROMOTIONS!!!

**ThatGuy** · 01-13-2006, 04:13 AM

Good luck Luke. Just go out and have fun, stay off the walls, and let the V8 roar. Fuck the judges if they don't like it.

i8yourfwd · 01-13-2006, 06:22 AM

Woooo go luke and george! Good luck guys!

*Yuri* · 01-13-2006, 09:11 AM

I hope it rains, That's $200 worth of tires I'll save. And it's actually the top 30 FD people who are already qualified, according to FD's site, so it'll be just a little easier. See you there.

Edgar · 01-13-2006, 09:38 AM

Ill see all you guys out at Round 1

cali240sxdrifter · 01-13-2006, 10:20 AM

give them hell! good luck

Flybert · 01-13-2006, 10:40 AM

Man, I feel really bad for all you guys competing there tomorrow. Why would you want to do the feeder at Irwindale. Should have just waited for the SD round...for the sake of your cars. No glory in totaling a car in a feeder series. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and predict that 10 of 43 cars will total their shit. Not shitting you either. Good luck. Seriously.

ranisron · 01-13-2006, 11:49 AM

good luck luke.

the FD is a pure beast.

sr240mike · 01-13-2006, 12:49 PM

Im off work now. Off to Luke's I go, then shock long driving.....drinking.

blu808 · 01-14-2006, 01:47 AM

We are finally in la after the 7 hour drive. NCDA henry was suppost to meet me here but he ate shit on his bike and is in bad shape. Please pray for him as he is in bad shape. We are getting faded, and prepared for the hangover drifting tomorrow. wish us luck. nor cal for teh win, and skeet for teh huh?

RSP13-Sideways · 01-14-2006, 03:27 AM

Henry was in a bike accident? A motorcycle accident Luke or a bicycle accident? I'm a bit faded right now but so are you, it's 2:26am and I'm back from Downtown San Jose. Aye....is Henry alright?

Norcal for the win baby, remember Luke.......backpedal a lot in the rain, no need to stay on the throttle, use your throttle to angle your drift, brakes don't make a big difference in the rain. GOOD LUCK!!!!!! You'll do just fine biatch! Good luck as well George!!!!

JtWo · 01-14-2006, 04:16 PM

Henry's in my prayers bro. So are you and George dood. Hold it down for NorCal homies!

EDIT: LOL Get hyphy and scrape for the Bay!

ramblux · 01-14-2006, 08:34 PM

Luke and George both kicked ass today! Even with the wet asphalt they handled their business...

I don't think they announced the results today though, but there may have been a driver's meeting after the event that I didn't stick around for...

Nan Desu Ka?! · 01-14-2006, 11:18 PM

I WANT PICS AND VID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

gogo Shock-wet-Drifting. holdin it down for norcal!
