Adeadcurrent · 05-03-2009, 12:28 AM

lol so many beat ass chicks.

Grenade180sx · 05-03-2009, 12:56 AM

my views from a vendor stand point..

Quite behind schedule
Too much outside the drifting aspect. like stated early DONK WARS 200000000
Drifting is cool. glad to see locals atleast get some amount of spot light.

Everything else GAY. driftbox FTL imma get my need for speed and hack that bitch. or if they are gonna use it, then make it worth less i mean holy shit it was like 75% of the fucking score. and it looks like it was built by a 2 year old. 4 buttons and a 1960 screen.

congrats to forrest for totally kicking ass tho.

nieko · 05-03-2009, 01:00 AM

ya forest killlllled it.

and i said 4 chicks were hot.

out of hte like 9 million.

seriously some of the girls there made me want to vomit everywhere

Element_on_20s · 05-03-2009, 01:05 AM

Do want.

Grenade180sx · 05-03-2009, 01:10 AM

gumball guys were gay as hell. and why the fuck do we care about them.. all they are doing is paradeing and making us look even more poor!

JayDee M Rolly · 05-03-2009, 01:10 AM

As sad as I was that I'll never have stupid money like that, I completely had my opinion changed about the Bugatti when I saw it.

cxlo8331 · 05-03-2009, 01:19 AM

very poorly planned.
Seemed to drag
Had fun with friends and enjoyed the chanting....
"drift box sux" & "do your job"

Horse shoe section was a riot.

What was up with the d1 chics shooting bad boy bail bonds shirts into the crowd?
At least they could have given away d1 gear.

Sux for the guy that jumped on to the track to pick up the debris, since the track staff didn't. Dude got tossed out.

Grenade180sx · 05-03-2009, 01:40 AM

id have to say its a GREAT thing he got tossed, stupid shit like that is one of many things that makes drifting looks like we are a bunch of morons even more!

mikael0402 · 05-03-2009, 01:51 AM

FD1 was better...

usdm180sx · 05-03-2009, 02:03 AM

This was NOT a D1 event. The new owners TOTALLY FUCKED it up. It USED to be "The event to go to."

they were shooting bail bond shirts...thats a fail...

joshchewuhh · 05-03-2009, 02:09 AM

first d1 event, heard it used to get down back in the day so i was all stoked. Pretty much was lame.

Most the cars there were a joke.

FTL

wow-thats-a-cool-car · 05-03-2009, 02:16 AM

Ya so we all agree D1 was a failure?

We need more D1 drivers and less bull shit!!!

We need less "Dub" Cars and more JDM cars

People need to display "drift" cars not "POS" show cars

The event needs more food definatly and at a lower cost...5 dollars for a drink is bull shit!!! and running out of food 1/2 way though WTF!!!!!

All in all fail

I'm drunk so if it doesn't make sense sorry...i'll edit it tomorrow...apple spell check FTW!!!!

wow-thats-a-cool-car · 05-03-2009, 02:22 AM

And I saw a picture of the track layout and it looked way bigger. The pic I saw made the stadium look tiny in comparison to the tack. I was expecting a high speed course layout with 100mph plus entry speeds. WTF it was a slow, very normal course!!!

JayDee M Rolly · 05-03-2009, 02:30 AM

i feel sorry for the people that paid for general admission to STAND

DataXUnknown · 05-03-2009, 02:32 AM

I went there early ready to see some awesome drifting. Got there and saw the $15 parking (fuck) then paid 25$ and "snuck" into the grandstands. The show was SUPER lame, I hate DUB and DONKS and honda accords that are tricked out to be wannabe skylines.

I only stayed until 3:30 when the first tandems starting coming on. The course was slow as fuck, and small. Fuck the drift box shit they use, most pointless shit I've seen ever. Only 2 hot models there, otherwise 99% of the normal girls attending the event were hotter than the models there. Saw teddy by the DMAX booth said hi made the event a bit better

Gumball 3000 is cool, but not something I wanna see at a D1 event. And yes it is true, D1 is partnershiped with both H.I.N. and Gumball 3000. It's all the same people.

Those karts were kinda cool (seein' one guy all baller drifting the kart near the wall).

stunt bikes got super boring after the first 5min of the first one (they do the same shit over and over again, i know it's hard and cool but comon)

I was hungry as fuck, no ATM anywhere couldn't leave D1 and come back, $5 for a CAN of soda, enormous food lines. Good luck to the rest of the series. Sorry I left such a long ass review but I needed to vent at how much it wasen't even close to being as good as any other drift event. Oh and Forrest Wang had some gangster ass angle on the first turn out of the shoot.

*EDIT* Oh and stay tuned, I got a buncha pictures of the 240's in the parking lot to post up. I just started taking random ones, and the line of like 10 all lined up n shit. I dunno if i should put it in the spotted thread or what lol.

joshchewuhh · 05-03-2009, 02:40 AM

haha ya we roamed the parking lots for a bit to check out cool peoples cars

post pics

block the plates though

alpha! · 05-03-2009, 05:31 AM

I was in the back helping a good majority of the riot. Yelling profanities to the commentator, throwing paper planes, etc. That was a good crowd, the back that is. And yes, D1 is dead, due to Keiichi not being/judging there, Toshi wasn't the commentator, Drift Box is retarded (Forrest did good, no doubt, but Kumakubo should've won), and the booths that were there had no place being at D1. My 2 cents.

Flipzide · 05-03-2009, 05:43 AM

jesus... good thing i didnt go. d1 @ irwindale and california speedway are some of my fondest memories. good thing i didn't ruin it by going to this one.

whats up with the drift box? was it actually used in judging? wtf.
