5 years Slideways around Old Dominion Speedway: 11/10/12 Last ODS event ever.
 
I was losing my liscense when i was 16, decided to say fuck it, and attended my first Slidewaysonline.com ODS event circa 2007.. I was just introduced into drifting about a month before and owned a clean 1986 nissan 200sx, my first car.
The event was 50$ and i had two spare wheels to burn up, i wasnt going to be on the road much longer so from my view it seemed pretty safe to try it out even if i screwed anything up. I went out with my 93 hp/open diff and gave it all i could haha, had such a blast and though it probally sucked i knew that this was way more intense over skating or anything ive ever done.

From that day on i was sent on a rampage, made everything in my life drift & drift & drift, bought a second 200 and ended up putting 7 motors in it over the course of 4 or so years including a vvti 1jzgte...

This track made it happen for me, this community made it happen.. inspiring people and awesome motherfuckers just made everything worth doing, got me into Drift Nirvana @ Summit Point which i now coordinate with a few other drivers to this day, and has pretty much guided me into a life with passion, and meaning.

Old Dominion Speedway is getting torn down soon, so our last slideways event out of the so many years its been going was held this past saturday... fucking great ass turnout, around 35 or so drivers showed up (thats alot for oval drifting in manassas!)..

Just wanted to tribute one of the coolest beat down oval tracks i ever drove, and you will be missed by many. So many good times, even test & tune when i used to hit that shit up... RIP ODS you will be missed... though i am excited to see whats up with the new dominion track they are building not too far away in a few years.




Got some media/footage driving my vvti 1jz powered S14 chassis for the first time out there. it was a damn blast!! I drove my hardest and went all out to show my passion for this bumpy ass circle. What an awesome time!!! Glad that most of our regulars & other drivers from summit and elswhere came out to throw down too.
