Sometimes it isn't all about the pro's - we love to see the young guns showing up where it matters. @corytalaska and @braden.lons left nothing behind on the weekend at Atlanta, both were incredibly to watch and have set themself up for a great season to come.
Love these shots by @2rs.cc and @matt_rs007 🙌
Round 2 of FD Pro, and Round 1 of FD Pro spec made for an interesting weekend with our sponsored athletes.
Event highlights included Cory Talaska taking the win in pro-spec, and Braden Lons winning the seeding event but a mechanical failure taking him out in top 16.
Unfortunately, Simen Olsen ended up battling more engine issues so the team have some work ahead of them - currently sitting 12th.
Chris Forsberg went down with a fight, ending up in the top 8 against Vaughn Gittin Jr - Currently sitting at 10th overall.
Nate Chen is loving his first year of FD Pro, battling his childhood hero - Vaughn Gittin Jr (who won the event) - he was knocked out early but still has high spirits. Currently sitting 29th.
Dan Burkett running into the top 16 but falling short against James Deane. Dan is sitting comfortably in 16th.
That would ruin your day 😭 the Gunsai Touge has claimed another 2 victims 😔
The white s13 had broken down mid track and no one had notified the drifters that were mid-run, this resulted in Daniel’s 180 collecting the rear end at a high speed 💔 Thankfully everyone involved is okay no serious injuries - just some sadness with the damaged cars.
The vide was supplied by 180sx driver Daniel Obrian who has given us permission to post this. #gunsaitouge #gunma #drift #s13 #jdm
corytalaska takes P1 in Round 1 of pro-spec!
From a front end prang in practice to re-fabricating front end track side, Cory bounced back to take the podium.
Massive shoutout to braden.lons too who won his way into top 16 before mechanical issues let the car down.
Really excited to see how these two take on this season 🔥
