Xtreme Drift Circuit: RD3 @ ORLANDO (TEASER)

It was HOT.  It was BRIGHT.  It was LOUD.

IT WAS WORTH IT...

This past weekend in Orlando, Florida, many spectators, enthusiasts, racers, models, and all different breeds of people had a chance to enjoy some of the top drivers from the still uprising world of drifting.  Over 30 drivers competed for a spot in the top 16 qualifers, which was pretty intense given the caliber of drivers present.  Watching Matt Waldin, driver of the Helix / Mishimoto turbocharged Z33, was like watching a sniper pick off his enemies one-by-one on a battlefield.  There was a brief scare proceeding the battle of Waldin v. Moen's "One-More-Time."  But luckily, Matt walked away victorious. 

Although I think many of us believed that Waldin and DeNofa should have had a "One-More-Time" battle in the fight for 1st and 2nd place, we can all agree that it was a good show and we got to see some top-notch skills.  Congratulations to the Top Four Drivers!

Fourth Place:
Nate Hamilton
Third Place:
Jeremy "J-Lo" Lowe
Second Place:
Chelsea DeNofa

First Place:
Matt Waldin

Unfortunately, I can't photodump all my coverage just yet, but here are some teasers of the happenings from Round 4 in Orlando.  Enjoy, Bushido!

^^^Shout out to the guys at V2Labs!  Good meeting you, and definitely going to stay following you all.
