Who Would Have Thought... HIN+TSD=FUN

noreply@blogger.com (The Kid Staten) — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 01:19:00 +0000

Who would have thought that the SUMMER would be more hectic than finals week.. anyways I went from a few posts to none.. sorry about that.. but I'm back with a T1I lol so I'll be getting some nice pictures of upcoming shows. This weekend would have been the first show with the T1I but HIN/NOPI called and said they needed help so we volunteered.. Hot Import Nights and NOPI is going to have a "Gymkhana" contest @ Englishtown a.k.a. Time-Attackish Obstacle-Coursish tournament for $3,000. Also there is going to be drifting for people who's car meets Club Loose's B Group Spec. It should be pretty fun.. do NOT come there to b*tch and complain.. like I said on Facebook.. 90 degrees and up is no b*tching weather. No tire changer so bring rims and tires pre-mounted.. and be ready to slide for 2-3 hrs on Sat and 2-3 on Sunday.. $55 if you pre-register $65 at the gate.. 2 day pass for you and a friend.. sounds like a win win.

Good.. Safe..Fun.. and there has to be at least one hottie lol.. but no guarantees there..

Still Working on The Videos from Drift Camp

noreply@blogger.com (The Kid Staten) — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 02:48:00 +0000

So, I've been working on the videos in between my 15-30 page final reports... I have some cool clips so DEFINITELY check them out next week, if you weren't there you'll definitely want to see them, and if you were there you probably would still want to see them lol so either way come by... This one is a revision of a video I did for a local drifter over at Slide Asylum <=Check them outt!
OHH.. so I invested in a wayyyy better video-camera(no more FLIP :( I'm sure I'll find a use for it)... so look for better videos soon.. I'm thinking about making a DVD at the end of the season with highlights from every event(both on and off the track TriStateDrift style).. it's still up in the air though..

Here is the first video I put effort into editing, I used a fade out when I probably shouldn't have, I'm getting better though lol(Monday was the first time I EVER edited a video in my life..sad I know)

Soo.. about that Drift Camp... it was.. CRAZZZYYY!!!

noreply@blogger.com (The Kid Staten) — Sun, 25 Apr 2010 04:11:00 +0000

Drift Camp was soo sick.. I had so much fun.. almost got hit like 5 times.. got some good shots(as good as you can get on a point-and-shoot) and some nice clips(FLIP video style). I will be posting all the pictures in the coming days, I should have them all up by Monday... I'm going to make videos of a couple of the cars' highlights. I'll also make a video of the highlights of all the drifts... but keep in mind I'm not a film-maker.. I leave the creative sh*t to Will and Josh(no I'm not actually on a first name basis with them.. I just follow them on twitter haha)

one more..
