I.R. Drift Driver Profile: Victor Sun, Silent But Deadly.

By
April 1, 2010

Before you start making fart noises and jokes because of my less than funny tagline, know that Victor Sun is a rising star right here in Texas. Victor has been drifting since 2006, but actually started drifting in California where most of the US based drifting comes from. In Cali, he attended numerous Drift Day events, and even started his own Drift group, 626 Drift Crew.

Name: Victor Sun
Height: 5 ft 11 in (it seems everyone that drifts is this height)
Weight: 225 lbs.
Bloodtype: O type
Preference in Women: Sexy sexy sexy legs

Who woulda thought an itchy crotch would be such a great profile pic?

I.R. Drift Driver Profile: Alex Berrios, Notorious Street Drifter.

By
March 31, 2010

Before the glitz, glamour and hot women in bikinis that Professional drifting provides, at it’s core, drifting is an underground, grassroots type of automotive sport. These underground drift sessions take place mainly at night, in secluded areas typically around industrial parks. Alex Berrios, local drifter and 786Motoring groupie, will be taking his shot at Import Reactor Drift 2010, and by the looks of it, he has a damned good chance with his signature Balls-to-the-wall style.

Name: Alex Berrios
Height: 6 ft
Weight: 215 lbs.
Bloodtype: H for Hustler
Preference in Women: Love my bitches

Alex Berrios: if you know him, then you know he looks like this 24/7

Smoky Does Houston: Top Secret Dyno Tuning Day 2.

By
March 31, 2010

As I write this post at 3am, I had just got back from Secret Services Auto about an hour away from where I stay. The dyno sessions are going well, and Smoky is relentless, and a true perfectionist when it comes to tuning. As soon as Nagata-san arrives to Secret Services, he puts on his game face and gets to work. He is a tuning machine!

Dammit Smoky! I told you! I cant read Japanese!

Bringing some JDM goodness to the table for I.R. Drift this year is Cody Surman. Cody, the senior of the local drifters competing in Import Reactor Drift will be running and gunning in his JZX100 Chaser. Drifting pretty is about the most “on point” phrase that describes Cody and his uber clean Chaser when it slides around the track. But don’t be confused by the cars devilishly good looks, because Cody is bringing the heat.

Name: Cody Surman
Height: 5ft 10 in

Bloodtype: S for Smooth
Preference in Women: The crazier the better.

Top Secret 370Z’s Update: Brakes, Body Kits and Balls.

By
March 29, 2010

The Mayday Garage crew got a chance to check up on the twin white Z’s being built by Planet Zero and Baker-Jackson Nissan. As you recall, these twin Z34’s are being built in preparation for Smoky Nagata’s arrival here in Houston. These 370’s will undergo a very drastic transformation as they will go from showroom stock, to track/show shock. Maydaygarage will be here documenting this event, and this past thursday, I got a chance to see what these cars were going through.
