Ter-Tech BMW 535i turbo Harri Tervola , Blake Fuller (White Z), Ernie Fixmer (Red 240sx,sr20det), Verena Mei (Red Z twin turbo), Dan Willie (Batlground 240sx sr20det) & Doug van Den Brink (Red Mustang turbo). Took part in the first ever IRL (Indy Racing League) Drift event in St. Petersburg, FL. Check out the onboard video.
The event was a big step for drifting in the US. Looks like IRL will be hosting more events with WDC. As far as WDC comes they've been laying low for past year since some of the FD drivers went against them. BUT NOW WDC IS BACK IN FULL FORCE AND WILL BE BIG. WE'VE YET TO BE TREATED THIS PROFESSIONALLY BY ANYBODY AS WDC DID TO US!!!!! ANYTHING THEY DO IN THE FUTURE WILL HAVE OUR 100% BACKING. . THEY ARE ALL ABOUT THE DRIVERS AND GETTING SPONSORS FOR THE DRIVERS EXACT OPPOSITE FROM FORMULA D.
To sum it up we all had a great weekend, blown car or not, and I know everyone who took part would like to extend huge thanks to WDC for putting this together and paying for everything throughout the weekend plus being the most professional people that I have had the pleasure of working with in the world of drifting.
