The TMFO boys headed down to Mid America Motorplex to test out the track for drift worthiness.  Between the drive to the track, bizarre weather, lots of car problems, our scary motel and taco guy, the weekend was quite an experience.

The track is high speed and grippy with a good section that is linkable but definitely challenging. With the venue being in close proximity of several major cities, we may try for a practice type event yet this year.

Kevin, Dennis, Mike & Scott got in a little practice and then put on a show for the crowd that night.  These nights are always a great time as we talk to fans and share the love of drifting.

Haven’t seriously attempted any halfway decent shots of motorcycles.  They’re deceptively hard to capture well.  I went with the clean approach here, worked out alright.

DDYK IV.  I think the four was for the four hours of 30something MPH sustained wind.

A lot of the intermediate drivers really, really stepped it up today.  Way to go guys.  The competition at Elko in July should be interesting.

It was a low turnout but we still had some good driving.  Beautiful weather too.

Congrats to the top three + Juan Marquez for securing their D1 invites.

1. Mike Pollard
2. Jonathan Johnson
3. Doug Artus

This car sounds ridiculous.  Maybe the Q45 had a previous life in the Winston Cup.

I had the pleasure of piling on some miles last Saturday during the break in period with Scott.  We stopped at some random places for a few photos.

The lilacs don’t last too long and I haven’t taken much for nature/flower shots in quite some time, so I figured I should grab a few.

I’m happy the ferns are finally coming up.  Hopefully Sumo leaves them alone.
