and that would be my buddy adam barker ladies and gentlemen Adam ROCK ON

The race tomorrow is going to be insane. I say that alot, but its mainly because all the guys racing, our little brotherhood of drifting, yea all of the guys are out for blood. Everyone is feeling out the course and there cars, and it looks to be and interesting race day. Forseberg looks unstoppable, the speeds he is going in through and out with are amazing, ANGELO and that FD, that thing is great, Dave at Speed Machine built an incredible motor, and it is singing that mean rotary tune, and EVERYONE CAN HEAR IT.....from a mile away..... That thing is ridiculous. The other cars are looking great, like everyone else, all the big names are on par with the performance, JR is killin' it, Rhys is killin' it, I want to see the tandem runs really badly. Taka did a rail slide in the Hachi and it landed on its side, EVERYONE THAT WAS THERE was on hand to help him out and save the car from landing on its roof, that was an awesome effort from all the racers and the team, it was kinda cluttered, but the geniune concern was what made it clear, that we are really all a big family, that was awesome, but yea i need to sleep, i dont even now why I am awake, we got a race tomorrow....PEACE

Quick question, when watching the clip rhys practice 2 at about 20sec into it when he makes the first corner theres a poppin sound coming from the car, Is that how many times he hits the throttle or is it backfire? I just have no clue.

I think you're talking about the car hitting the rev limiter
