Once every year, german car magazine Sport Auto organizes a huge event at the Hockenheimring, which includes the TunerGP and the Drift Challenge. The TunerGP is a time attack for any kind of cars from tuners all over german europe and is meant to give them a chance to show what they can do. The Drift Challenge meanwhile has become one of the most well known drift events in europe.

If you weren’t there don’t matter. Here’s a little teaser to keep you waiting from my full edit of the weekends footage in Hockenheim baby

With the bad weather kickin’ in, I just wish I was in EBISU right NOW !!!
I can’t wait for our pouilly drift days end of this month, where we will try (I say try) and have a sort of Matsuri vibe going on at the track.

peace,

Here’s a bit of action during our first big event of this 2012 year

Well I recently had a few chances to drive something a bit different from the scooby I normally drive for a weekend. As one of the cars in question also happened to look pretty good (at least in my opinion) I of course had to do a little photoshoot. Being interested in pretty much anything with an internal combustion engine in it, it goes without saying that I also tested all its abilities pretty thouroughly so thinking about this week’s photo friday, I thought why not just have a go at a bit of a car review. So I present to you, the Mercedes-Benz CLS500:

Andrew Hirschy was ripping it up in Monza just recently at a D1 Stella practice session! His friend called simply Stan the Man with the Plan took his PS13 with S2000-Turbo engine out of the garage and onto the track. Andrew put together an edit of the happenings right here. Awesome!

As you might have noticed, we’re in between seasons. No trackdays, no driftevents for weeks, what is a petrolhead supposed to do during all this time? Well, I could build myself a 7000hp driftcar and win D1 seven times.. but unfortunately I have no money, otherwise I’d certainly be doing that. So unfortunately I had to restrict myself to swapping the diffs and transmission on my scooby. It’s now even more ready than ever for endless snow-drift session.. but, f..reezing hell, where’s the snow? Well, I could just go to some motorshows then.. and that’s exactly what I did, visiting Essen as well as Luxemburg Motorshow on recent weekends.

Check out this G.R.E.A.T. video from our man Marco Bolognese from Dirtdrop Media.

Gives me goosbumps!
