Stephen Papadakis crashed his AEM S13 hatchback in qualifying, which made me laugh thinking that he may do real good in drag racing a Civic but when it comes to actually TURNING he's back to square 1

Other than that some people moved the plastic barriers or ate some cones. But yeah, the big crash was Yamamoto into Tarzan.
Actually I got to watch the practice session since I was there since 6 in the freakin morning and Papadakis wasnt doing that badly.

I think they finally got the car down exactly how he wanted it and he has had enough practice running with the car. Another thing is I dont understand why people freaking take home the used ****ed up tires...for the most part you cant use em. Lemme take this huge ****ing tire home. Ill throw it on my desk and use it as a paperweight. From a race teams stand point its a good way to avoid the cost for disposal of tires but i dunno im just ranting.

Only reason I kept it was because of the signatures

eh it doesnt really matter haha. Maybe it was cause I was tired as hell, dirty, and hungry when I saw all those poeple carrying tires that made me have a negative feeling towards it. I just wouldnt want to carry that tire just to put it in my room or garage to take up space. But yea I didnt sleep the night before and was at the venue setting up at like 6 in the morning plus helping all my friends detail their cars and setting up plus walking around the show. I was seriously about to pass out during the first round of drifting so when that was over I went to our area and knocked out till the second round. Still was fun though.
