D1GP USA Englishtown from Slidewayz Motorsports
The finishing videos of the D1GP USA season are rolling in right now. This one from Slidewayz Motorsports caught our attention with a video with some great east coast flair and feel. A solid piece highlighting some of the best drivers from Japan and the local east coast. Englishtown provided a great platform for an entertaining video.

Since Englishtown has ended we have been getting reports about the D1 Grand Prix USA website going down. We sent out a message inquiring while the website would go down during the off season and will update this post if we get a a reply. Is the website coming back up? They did also have a downtime period during the season, maybe it’s time to pony up for a better web host? If the website does never come back up we at least have the 2009 season archived in our gallery that you can check out.

D1 Grand Prix Etown by Nathaniel Chen
We have posted some of Nathaniel Chen’s videos before and I love the work he pumps out. I didn’t realize until yesterday however that he is only 17 years old. With the fact that he is being in high school still I think this video is a huge testament to the kids abilities. The video runs down the normal stuff for the night event at Englishtown Raceway leaving Daigo Saito in his Chaser the winner of the round. Steve Angerman who is gracing our current Wrecked Magazine cover was the highest finishing American.

Putting the 2009 D1GP USA season to an end was Englishtown, New Jersey. The heavy hitters came out minus Team Orange to battle some guys from the northeastern United States. Daigo Saito took home the victory which just further sealed his championship win for the inaugural season. Dan Jenkins attacked the event and produced almost 500 images form Saturday.

Here is how the D1GP USA season has finished up. Not a shocker Daigo Saito cruised to another victory but our Issue 11 cover story Steve Angerman scored a 3rd place finish which is awesome ranking above Ueno!
1st. Daigo Saito
2nd. Toshiki Yoshioka
3rd. Steve Angerman
4th. Takahiro Ueno
The closing points event of the 2009 D1 Grand Prix series has arrived over the weekend. Dan Jenkins was on the scene for us at Englishtown. This photo gallery was from Friday (yesterday’s) practice and qualifying sessions. Daigo Saito was seen out defending his championship along with Ken Nomura drifting it up in his Nissan Skyline. Notably absent of course was Team Orange after the fiasco in Chicago. Don’t miss all of our great photos from Friday!
