This is drifting.

Monster pic post from Formula D @ Wall, NJ.  Let’s go!

Practice.

They don’t call it the ‘Wall’ for nothing.

Sam Hubinette during prelims.

Rhys Millen’s day ended early. Ouch.

Nice banner placement, NOS. ;)

Parade lap, pre top 16.

Stephan Verdier in the Iron Man 2 Impreza.

Driver introduction.

And a little bit of showboating…

Top 16 -

Verdier getting close to the railing.

Maybe too close?  I’m sure that right rear wheel isn’t supposed to have positive camber under load…

Yup, I was right. :-P

Tanner Foust, 3rd on the day, hamming it up.

I’m pretty sure you shouldn’t be looking at me…

Vaughn, that means you, too…

Looks like I was pretty close to the action, huh?

Yup, that’s me on the right.

(Photos taken from a Solstice forum. If the photog sees these pics and wants to contact me at tom (at) tomolesnevich.com I’ll give you proper credit.)

Finals.  Vaughn Gittin Jr vs Daijiro Yoshihara.

Yoshihara takes it.

Top 3.  1- Daijiro Yoshihara, 2- Vaughn Gittin Jr, 3- Tanner Foust.

No podium would be complete without champagne, now would it?

Nor a good soaking of the Falken Tires podium girl. ;)

End.
