this past saturday, August 9th was Nigh Shift Pomona. On the side, there was the Motorcross flying from the ramp making huge flys, XDL Show with the motor cycles doing wheelies and making donuts etc, live performances, hot chicks walking around, etc. and where i was hosting was for the Super Gymkhana which was the very first event together with HIN and Aerodyne Industries.
now lemme just go over with Gymkhana real quick. its something similar to auto-cross but with more usage of the actual track, or course. which means more room for drifting as well. its better to see then listen. please take a look at the clip i found with our race car from 10 years ago back in 1998 racing in class D.
Aerodyne Industries has been hosting the gymkhana evetn for quite a while now. and it was there very first time hosting it together with HIN. special thanks to Thanh from HIN for connecting them together. we had total of 19 drivers. -1 since one of the cars caught on fire. What was not fair was Quoc Ly driving in the race. a Formula D driver running with the amateurs… hahha thats not fair!! well, unfortunately, or fortunate by the judges? lol he did not take first place. as i was judging, Quoc was a bit slow on the speed. Performance point was perfect since he was drifting from start to finish, but the speed was in a lack. the time was only like a second difference but this still made a lot of difference on score. for me, the best run was Quoc (S14) against Omar (FC3S). this was a real hard match to judge for us. with the other judges including me representing LOT USA/BRIDE, Brian from High End, Toshi from Blitz, Keith from Nukabe/Cusco, and Andy from Aerodyne really had a hard time judging on this. the time was really the biggest factor of who took the win. Omar was a second faster then Quoc, leading him to 1st place.
since Brian took some shots from the Race, i will post them under his courtesy 🙂

Drift Speed’s S15. the driver was Takeshi Aizawa. during his last run, the car’s movement was not his usual runs. and i asked him what happen Takeshi-san? he said he worn out the tires when he was doing the burn out to bring back the audiences… lol hey, it wasnt my idea!! hahha
