Now back to the post...yesterday I had the opportunity to attend a car show but this wasn't just any ol' car show. This one was actually a little collabo done with Motor Mavens - Mass Appeal and Ken Block and his "Gymkhana Grid". I rolled to the show with Anita and Mikko, with Nate and Ryan rolling behind us but we also meet up with some other homies there. This was actually my first time seeing drifting being done (legally) and it was...sick. You see dope ass cars doing what they do best...going sideways, the sound of loud engines rumbling and tires screeching and that heavenly smell of burnt rubber in the air, AMAZING! Haha. With this show being a first, they made it extremely fan friendly, we got autographs and photos with Ken Block himself, as well as the overall champ of the night and a nice f'n ass dude...Tanner Foust. Btw, Tanner Foust beat Ken Block in his own event. Not too shabby eh? I took tons of pics but I do apologize for the blurriness of the drifting pics that I took. It's not even an understatement when I say I am a photography AMATEUR. Anyways, enjoy the pictures as I have a little something for everyone, the creepers, the car enthusiast, drift fans, Ken Block fans as well as the other drivers and if you are lucky enough you might even catch pictures of the surprise guest...Rob Dyrdek.
The pictures go chronologically from walk around, rear-wheel drive round, walk around, burn out round, all-wheel drive around, ending with one last walk around.
Note to self: Just because energy drinks are free (variety of Monsters and Rockstars), doesn't mean they should be consumed one after the other in a short time period.
If there is an event by Mr. Ken Block, then DC will be there.
