Some old pics from the Redbull drifting '08

[Micko]

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

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

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

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