Some old pics from the Redbull drifting '08

I came across these on my computer and i never got the chance to post them up before, so i said id share:D

Myself and the two bros went to the the Redbull championships after we were asked over by a friend Robbie bolger, Austrailian drift champion, who was competing in a borrowed Braille auto sponsored 350z. Perfect oppertunity to see young James deane and Eric o sullivan in action representing their country. Best event i was ever at.!!

its was fricken savage! the whole set-up, media coverage, unbelievably organised by red bull and formula d.

He didnt do great to be honest, i think the fact he has a 700 brake monaro back in oz compared to an underpowered left hand drive supercharged z he was driving there had something to do with it:D

The teams "set-up" over there is ridiculous.
The likes of Falken there.... Mad!

Thats just it, falken toyo, nitto, bridgestone, dunlop,coopers ...the works..

The tyre companies actually appear to take a serious interest and treat it like a real sport, unlike here:rolleyes:

And tuners and aero part makers, for example, seibon came around giving out free carbon bonnets and bootlids to certain teams, wicked!!

Brings bck good memories, some great pics,think ye ll hav to put em all up, thats only a teaser.. lol

Sweeeeeet pics! would have love to have been there!
