VIDEO: Drift Union Invitational 2012
After the success of last years Drift Union Invitational, I was inspired at this year's DUI to try and create a video that would dive a little deeper into the hidden gem that is Western Canada's drift scene. I wanted to make something more than just a short video, a mini-documentary of sorts. Something that could give you an insight into the minds of the drivers, show what goes on through the full weekend, the ups the downs, the drifting, the partying... an all encompassing video that is: The Drift Union Invitational.

EVENT: All Star Bash XI
If I was to describe All Star Bash in one word, it would be: Hot. I am Canadian and I have a permanent fur coat on my chest. The desert is not my natural environment. Despite this, I could use another word to describe ASB: hellafunpartydrifttimesinthesun. Yeah... I went there.

GRASSROOTS: Cell Block D 20
Agassiz's Speedway is a simple oval, two corners and two straights, but it is small and tight... and notorious for taking out cars. Most often, inexperienced drivers panic and hit the brakes, understeering into the wall. But even pros, who have been drifting the track since 2007 when Cell Block D started have had their share of mishaps here....

Winter Blues
"What is your favourite season?" Classic question for first dates. A quick google search tells me that thirty-one percent of the population would tell you the best answer: Summer. Spring and Fall are also acceptable answers, some people just can't take the heat! But can you believe there are folks out there who say: "Oh! I just absolutely LOVE winter!"?

SNAPSHOT: Hibernation
I recently went for a little day trip to Vancouver, hoping to maybe get a few photos of some friends drift cars. Bad communication and ill-planning on my part didn't get me much to work with. I showed up at Pete Schroeder's shop, Neptune D, to find out his SR20 had been pulled and his S13.5 was sitting pretty for the winter season.
