1st Pat Cyr
2nd Marc Landreville
3rd David Briggs
More body work such
I’ve kinda been slacking on the blog updates again.. and with doing body work, which is kinda of a good thing. It means Pat and Brad have managed to stay away from walls and such 🙂 However, Last round here in Toronto we had a Drift Posse podium FINALLY after being the cursed round for the boys Pat came in 1st place and Brad came in 3rd But not before Mr. Marc Landreville bumped into the back of Pat’s car, oh well it gave me something to do this week lol
This is a fiberglass trunk I made for Peter’s silvia
Currently still working on this fiberglass hood for Brad’s s13
At the beginning of the summer a new drivers back up into my car on the street… (note to parents.. stop letting your kids drive your minivan..) and seeing as how its now August, I thought I’d get around to fixing it
New/ refinished fender and rear lip
Bumper refinished and blew in the crappy fender
Just finished the first coat of paint one more then I can put it on the car
Next is fixing the weird rust lines on the rear
This is now fixing Pats rear over fender
still waiting for the fiberglass to dry then I’ll post more pics when its finished.
A night at the shop
These pics are from like 2 weeks ago or so Pat had to cut the front end of his car off after crashing at Victoriaville.
Thing you never want to see happening to a Corolla
Curt, Amy and Jover all stopped by to say Hi and drink beer 😀
There was A LOT of bugs at the shop.. So Brad felt that Lacquer thinner would make for a good bug repellent
This is little Brads work in progress Corolla, I’m pretty sure we picked this up at the original Union shop years ago
DMCC RD 4 Montmagny
So lets start by Montmagny is minimum 10.5 hour drive for us its absolutely brutal!! This was a night event so it was pretty awesome all around minus the hurricane rain that happened at the beginning of practice. I only managed to get a few shots this weekend after actually having to be a spotter for 3 Drivers on a new layout, So here they are.
Long story short Pat and Peter went against each other in top 16 Pat taking out peter and finishing 6th over all Peter finishing 11th Brad finishing 4th because of fuel issues. All in all after everyone and the track dried up it turned out to be a great event I w0uld show you a video I took but.. I have no idea how to get it linked with wordpress via my blackberry so.. none for you
Victoriaville Cont.
On a less car related we had our halftime show Curt and lil’ Brad BMXing in the pits I was able to grab a few shots of them
Saturday night was party time
DMCC Victoriaville RD 3
July 9-10th The Drift Posse headed up to Victoriaville, QU for DMCC round 3 since our camera man Dan was MIA.. (well not so much missing hes just working in the states right now) I managed to snap a few shots of Practice
Saturday morning finally getting unpacked and such
We went to Walmart and got hot dogs and chilly.. Curts testing to make sure its not to hot 😉
I’ve been doing this drifting thing for a few years now and I have learned a lot about judging and picking apart drivers runs .. watching these two drive together is just amazing, the crowd always starts screaming because they know its going to be an awesome show. Pat did an amazing job of following Brads run exactly in speed and angle.
All weekend long these stupid no parking signs were screwing up my shots.. this one worked out alright with a little bit of photoshop help
Long story short Brad made it to the top 8 and was taken out by Miro (pink car) Pat was in his top 4 battle against Miro when he ended up spinning and hitting the wall obviously for-fitting his one more time against Miro
Doooo work
Well… June was really really busy! First off Formula D NJ.. didn’t go so well… we got to Thursdays practice and..well this is what happened
We went to the track on Friday to find our tent full of water.. that was interesting trying to get off the car!
Sadly our tent was not the only one to take a beating at Wall, NJ… later that day Team Need For Speed’s tent ate it hard during a bad thunderstorm
So for those of you who don’t know or have never been – the Need for speed tent is always pumping music and have lots of Flat screen TV’s set up so people can come play xbox as you can see FD Judge Andy yen walking away with one of the TV’s as it drips
OH and yes the tent is wrapped in the power lines lol
Anyways, we left the track before the other storm headed in and took a trip to NYC. pretty epic trip..
Seeing ground zero in person was definitely a trippy feeling
The body work continues..
Now that the Corolla is all finished with making Fiberglass Roof, doors, fenders, hood and headlight covers its finally time to fix my poor sad looking 240 since a new driver decided to back up into my car (I still don’t understand why parents let their teenage kids drive a minivan) anyway, I have half a bumper.. laying around and since I don’t have a job right now making a new bumper seems to be a good way to spend my time..
Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to be a normal 23 year old girl..
