Yeah im going to try and make it to atleast the Drift Atlanta event and try and help out anyone who needs help in the pits. I think this could be a great opportunity for anyone entering to get some possible sponsorship, and a whole lot of experience. Good luck to anyone and everyone competing. Turbofb, you and the other FB where out there last year weren't you? You where also at the southern fried slide. If that was you, then you have improved a lot, and I must say I can't wait to see how you do in the event. Good luck on a second time at the event, and I can't wait to see all of you out there.

Wow, thanks alot Zach. Both the FB's should be running in this years fd. Last year i had 330 miles of seat time in my car, so this year should be hell'a sweet. Plus a i have another 13degrees of steering as of last weekend, and new suspension setup in the mail. Its going to be one hell of time. I hope more locals enter the event this time.

Yeah i'll definately be out there to watch everyone, sounds like you have some nice additions to your car again. I believe my dad talked to you about your 13b-t setup at the southern fried slide. He said you wished you kind of had not done the street porting because it really ended up not showing great results? Or maybe that was the other FB. I was the curly haired short kid with almost an afro at the bottom few corners in the last half of the day. I'll definately be at the Formula D Atlanta stop cheering all of you guys on. Can't wait to see all of you tearing it up out there, and good luck :D

Yeah that was the other FB w/ the street port motor. For what we like to do street ports are not the way to go. W/ a turbo motor you really don't need the larger port, it will end up take away some low end torque to give a little top end power. Being strictly a drift machine the low end really makes it easier to hold the drifts, or for that matter start them. Hope to see you and your dad out there this year.
