Red Bull WC and the dinner at Tamaen JDM bbq

Last weekend was the Red Bull World Championship
at the Port of Long Beach.
What an incredible event!!! Formula D and RedBull
really went all out to make an awesome world's biggest
drift event ever !!
Although I was not a driver, I was pretty busy doing a
spotter for Yoshie at the Pro-Am event, and also
cheering for my fellow U.S. drifters !

The weather was actually very sunny, but from the
mountain fires all over the places, the sky was filled
with smoke and all the cars were covered with ashes!
After the event was over, some of us gathered for
a yakiniku dinner at Tamaen in Torrance.
Starting from the right there were Taka, me, Kuroi, Izumida,
Izumida's GF, Isumida's friend, Boso Frank, Boso Ross,
Mama Gushi, Miki, Takatori, and Kie.

And of course, anytime we meet Mr. Kuroi,
this happens.
(I'll upload the video later. . . . .)
