Formula D ProAM in Tucson, AZ

Last weekend, Taka and myself made a trip to Tucson, AZ
to judge a Formula Drift ProAm competition.
Taka drove his MX73 Toyota Cressida wagon equipped with
1JZ. It was a pretty long trip especially since we did not have
any sleep the day before from working on our Falken AE86
and Falken/Discount IS350 all night long.

It was a hot day in Tucson, but the event went very well.
The forecast was thunderstorm in the afternoon and at
night the lightning came all around us, but didn't drop a
single rain on the course. We were pretty lucky!
Congrats to everyone who got the invite to the Formula D
licensing competition held at the later in the year !!!
It was definitely cool to see a MX83 cressida rip it up for
the first place !

Thank you to all the Turn Style staff who helped us make
the event successful !! Great job everyone !

Awesome sunset view from the judges stand !
