well the moment that i had been waiting for had finally come along on saturday.. and it was awesome... calvin wan and ben shwartz (sp?) were the pro drivers representing, but unfortunately ben broke an axle on his 1st run of the day and was out for the rest of the time. but calvin made up for that and put on some great demo runs. and the local/pac nw guys were representing in the competition, but with no locals in the top three, having 2 oregon guys up there and someone all the way from montreal quebec (police/motul r32)... well enough with the talking, here are the pics:

Sucks about ben's car. looks like the car still has some battle scars from chicago.

Glad Calvin made it up and put on a show.

Hope Wes's car is ok (the Silk Road car). That car has been through hell and back!!

thanks for the pics

I'm soooo looking foward for the next event. The Oregon boys were rep'in for the States... Canada has some great drivers The comp was hard we went against some good drivers but came home victorious. First and third place.

Wow thats crazy. On a random trip to Vancouver in the summer me and my dad were driving around and we found a local tuning shop with a nice r32 out front. We went in and they were working on a Cefiro and a 240sx and they also had some other 180s and r32s on site. The 240sx we saw is the same one shown on this post (the black/red MSports one). Here is a crappy camera phone pic of the car that I took.

SHIFT_drift · 08-22-2005, 06:50 PM

yeah.. you must have gone to autoshop cannonball.. thats the shops drift car.. and they import alot of r32's there, as well as some other jdm cars... the cefiro you saw was mostlikey the green one in the pics.. it just prob had diff paint.. because i think theres only that one cefiro here, but there might be two...

driftersil80 · 08-22-2005, 06:57 PM

The cefiro is BADLY shown in my pic behind the guy in the blue. It was a PLAIN cream colored Cefiro. And, now that I think of it, it WAS Autoshop Cannonball that I visited. The guys there were REALLY cool about letting me take pics of the cars and stuff.

kurumakun · 08-22-2005, 07:00 PM

Good event. The venue area was small but the drivers did well for what we laid out for them. I'm pretty impressed that the local drivers can put it down on the track. Big thanks to Nick Fouskis and the Falken Tire crew, Ken Miyoshi, Moto Miwa (Drift Association), Nishimura-san (J-Blood North America) and the city of Vancouver!
