I know that Slipstream is now the "official" promotors of D1 now, but the cars were here before that. Falken laid claim to introducing/bringing over the JDM Drift cars here first. ..
If thats not the case, then I'll be pretty pissed off![Mad](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/mad.gif)

Their's something wrong with that press release. As i can remember, D1 came to the U.S. about a year ago i beleive. It was held in Hawaii, where Drifter X won.
Falken was the first to bring it to california, then RSR was 2nd, then slipstream brought D1.
So far, i've been to all drift events/show in california, because they've always been located at irwindale speedway.
