As an addition to our usual event coverage, I've been thinking lately about doing something a little different. We usually leave the track with tons for photos that don't ever relate to an actual story and don't ever get used. So I've decided to make this the first of my "Photo Dump" posts where I pour all my unused photos here for you guys to enjoy. Also, please leave feedback and let us know what
you want to see in future Photo Dump posts, whether…

Who could have guessed that Road Atlanta would hold such a prestigious place in American drifting history? For sure the South is a hotbed of car culture and racing activity, but most Japanese influence is in Los Angeles and the rest of the West Coast. Eventual FD founders Jim Liaw and Ryan Sage were involved with D1 coming to Irwindale in 2003 so when it came time to start the US's own professional drifting series in 2004, where would it make sense to hold the first event?

Armed with the lessons of what happened with the original track layout last year, the guys took measures to make it safer for both the drivers and the fans this year. There were no incidents where debris of crashing cars was thrown into the stands, so the original configuration finally got to be used in competition.

The first thing…

There sure is a lot of awesome stuff on my old hard drive! Sonoma 2007 was my first time at Formula D, and it's clear I had no idea how to shoot drifting back then. Oh well, here's Joon Maeng in an S13! Is this the same one I saw him with at Redline Time Attack earlier this year? Maybe.

It was Kyle Mohan's rookie season,…

As some of you may know, Justin Shreeve and I got the opportunity to join Larry Chen in filming the World Drift Series in Tianjin, China. Our Journey began Saturday night, as we were meeting Larry and the U.S. drivers for the event at LAX. Justin and I arrived to the airport a few hours early, so we had time to mess around with our cameras…
