I know its cutting it close to EOS but I was just wondering if anyone else was coming out for this event? I got picked to work the America's Tire Co. booth with a group of techs from the Northern Cal region.

maybe some of my thrust friends will go haha.

 

Come support Team Super Autobacs Drift!



First year rookie Michihiro Takatori from Japan is currently ranked #6 in the season! Hopefully he will do amazing again this round.

I will be traveling with the Autobacs crew at Sonoma. Can't wait!

 

How do you get tickets? I was trying to see how much it costs. I might consider going.

 

You can prepay for them at FormulaD.com

 

How was it? Any pics from this event?

 

Tanner Foust 1st place
Rhys Millen 2nd
Bill Sherman 3rd

I'll have some pics up soon... just barely arrived back from the event

 

I had no idea Foust was from Top Gear. He did really good. Unfortunately I did not bring a camera so I was unable to take any pics. I thought I was going to be doing more work than fun but it was actually the other way around. I was hoping to see the Americas Tire Co Lexus IS350 rip it up out there but because of mechanical failures it had to cut it short.

Keep an eye out for this 6.7 Liter V8 monster in the future!

It took you 3 days to get back? Where the heck do you live?

I took over 500 photos at the event. You can view them all here:

Here are the relevant ones:

 

looking forward to that F machine!

 

2nd thought about the F machine..
It is a d-race machine and x50 vs f are about the same chassis... and they will salm with other engine in that f again. ??!!?

Bad for money but good for show I guess.
(its car talk now, sorry to get off topic)

 

I'd choose the 6.7 Liter Hasselgren motor over the F motor anyday.

I also managed to get a quick pic with one of the Cooper Tire girls.
