Boy are we psyched for the 3rd annual Clubloose Awards Banquet and drinkfest 5000! We are having it at the same Bowling alley as last year. We rented the whole bowling alley in PA for the entire night. Its catered and all the booze and NOS energy drink you can handle. It only cost $75 a couple for all this or $50 for a single. As always we have Open Mic Karaoke all night and a sweet dance party in the basement. 

Here is a link to the thread on Clubloose http://www.clubloose.com/clubloose/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=2169

Speaking of NOS, our friends at NOS Energy Drink sent us some drinks and some Swag for the group. A WHOLE PALLETS WORTH! 


I spy some Grape and Fruit Punch in the mix. Always a crowd pleaser.I wonder what kind of awesome concoctions the Clubloose drinking team will come up with this year. 

I was making my rounds on my google reader today i hit up Noriyaro and found a spread about Garage Sunrise aka Tetsuya Hibino’s “shop”. After glancing through these exquisite shots i found this one.

If you look on the back window you see a sweetly placed Drift alliance sticker .. For a corolla lover this blog post was cool to see up close and personal a 2 wycked corolla that you usually have to watch hurtling by in video’s. Hibino has done alot with corollas and him rocking the DA sticker made me happy.

Here is a link to the rest of the pics.

Its been a long time since i had my own drifty car. Running events has taken all my time and doesnt exactly leave me with money to play with building a car wise. But now im doing something about it… 2009 will be my triumphant return to the contols of my old never finished drift car. “The headache machine” as she was once refered to is a total heap of shit corolla, But with its unmodified 4ag it never broke down and rarely broke parts. Now anyone who knows me knows i hate working on cars, actually i think im allergic to it. I get all lazy and sleepy at the thought of actually touching anything but the steering wheel.  Thats where my friends come in. Thank god for those guys… You know the type.. they actually like me.. and are really fucking sick of me driving their cars. 

When my buddy Ryan (motor swap) Moses was on the phone with me listening to me complain about not having a car AGAIN this season he suggested we swap in a rotary i had in my garage that was for another project i will never finish. I laughed and re-explained my adversion to getting oily and dirty. He said “ill swap it” and i said “uhhh ok” I offered him the mint 85 RX-7 shell i had as payment and he immediately got to work. 

Ryan is no stranger to crazy motor swaps. He has had 4 or 5 different motors in his FC3S besides the rotary. A year or two ago he did THE CLEANEST SR swap EVER! into an Fc… This year its a Buick GN motor .

Ryan Got busy and put that fabrication skill to work with my car. 

Currently i need a radiator,rear, and driveshaft to finish my project… Hopefully i get it together in the new year. 


Ryan also wired up my haltech and handled some odds and ends i had to get done. Thanks Ryan!

Coming up is my top five predictions for the 2009 Drift Season. 

5: JTP will crush shit! 

With all the hooplah and hubabaloo surounding Justin Pawlek it would be criminal if he did not perform next year. With the Wrecked report of him being added to the payroll for 09 under the Bergenholtz team. I expect great things form JTP in 09

4:ClubLoose East Coast Bash Better than last year!

Duh!

3:Gardella and I update our wrecked Blogs. 

VS

After i easily Destroyed Tony Angelo in the 08 Blog on wrecked “drivers” Challenge.. My new challenger is Rookie Wrecked Blogger Gary Gardella. Can his redbull fuelded madness combat my Diet Dr Pepper Addiction????? Im doing this all for cadbury schweppes and 23 Flavors!

2:Formula D fans realize they dont miss Taka and Hiro.

With all these “power moves” being announced in the world of formula D we have to ask. Where are Taka and Hiro going? Who cares?

1:Vaughn Gittin Jr does NOT change his facial hair concept!

Never Gonna Happen!
