TG dinner and track days at Willow Springs !

Last week, we had out annual Thanksgiving turkey dinner
at our Driftpro Team manager Koji's house.
Koji cooked this huge turkey for us !! It was sooo good !!!
And as always, the turkey cutter is Dr. Taka with his masterful
chiropractic skills !!

Koji's wife, Mako's friend brought their two children too.
The house was very exciting with three little childrens !

Baby Koki seems to like the camera flash a lot, so
we always used a flash to take photos with him !!

On the weekend, we had a track day at the Willow Springs
International Raceway in Rosamond, CA hosted by Drift Association,
R&D Factory, Slick Auto, Subaru group.
And we had a AE86 (4AG) Time Attack session on Sunday.
Alex had a really fast time with his 4AG Turbo equipped

Super Seven. Taka also had a great time with his own personal
turbo AE86. Yoshie drove the Drift 102 white AE86 with 20V
and was working on getting some rust off her grip driving (^ ^)/

I drove that gray Toyota Cressida sedan with 1JZGTE.
Although it was only pushing 5psi boost and weak brakes
for such a heavy car, the car did pretty well.

This was like a dream weekend for me because there was
the grip event going on at the Streets of Willow and at the
same time, there was the All Star Bash drift event hosted
by Just Drift at the Balcony and the Horse Thief Mile.
I was able to go back and forth to have fun doing both grip
and drift on the same day with my Cressida !!!
Thank god my car survived such an eventful weekend !!

Yoshie was not so lucky this weekend as she went off the track
and bent the rear lateral rod on the white AE86.
She is crying because the car is not able to be driven back home
and it has to get on the tow truck to go back.

Overall, the weekend was lots of fun with the great
weather and lots of seat time.
Thank you very much to Naoki from Drift Association's
Drift Day and Charlie from Just Drift !!!
