KING of EUROPE DRIFT SERIES with SAMUEL HUBINETTE! (PHOTOS + VIDEO)

Jore · 07-17-2006, 07:14 AM

Last saturday we had our X-treme Drift Challenge at local Alastaro race track. There was also one part of King Of Europe drift series. And we were lucky enough to get Samuel Hubinette there as a special guest.

I got to tag along with Samuel for the most of the day and have to say that he's one of the greatest and modest guys I've met. He was judging those two challenges with me and one other finish guy. And offcourse he also showed us how the drifting should have been done

I was that lucky that I got passanger ride for couple of laps with Samuel in a former Japanese D1GP build Silvia S15. I have been riding along with couple of Japanese D1 drivers earlier but have to admit that ride with Samuel was the best I have been in this far. Thanks again Samuel for everything!

Here's the pics:

It was really a treat to be over there with all of you guys.
Thanks for having me over in Finland and Sweden.
Next time I hope to bring my own tools.
I realy like the mix of bike stunts and the heavy Truck drifting was Sick too.
Great job with both of the events.

its so awsome that the top two drifters in the u.s. are probably the two best people in the u.s. drifting scene.

shubinette · 07-23-2006, 06:11 PM
