The dogs were being so cute during their nap time I just had to take the opportunity to take pics. I think the HOT weather got them tired!

Touke Drifting Event Videos
Sunday, March 28th, 2010Touke had it’s annual drifting event @ WSIR balcony. We had so much run time & fun last year we wanted to do so again this year. Ray & I decided to go & we even got to do FAR away car tandem. Personally I had a blast but I need to practice doing tandem and not let my nerves get in the way! Anyways, please watch these videos of me drifting!
A HOSE can ruin your Day
Friday, March 26th, 2010Yup, a hose like this can ruin your day. As I mentioned in an earlier post, my car was leaking a puddle of coolant all B/C of this hose. This hose had a very little hole, which wanted to have it’s green period, as I kept calling it. Also, like the notepad that Ray wrote what parts to buy to fix my 180SX!
Btw, thanks to Ray & Kenny for fixing my car… I can go drifting again this weekend, YAY!!!
WSIR Oval
Saturday, March 20th, 2010My first DRIFT event of the year @ WSIR oval w/Just Drift. I got hella burnt BUT I had fun. Also, I realized that I need a lot more practice B/C I haven’t drifted for over 5 months @ any track & the last time I drifted @ the oval was over 2-3 years ago. I was really inconsistent @ the oval & sometimes pushed myself so far that I spun out & ate dirt & I usually never spin out. So yeah, I need more practice drifting!!!!!I drove as much as I could throughout the run groups until I realized the temp on my 180SX was really HOT so I pulled out of grid. This was around 3ish. Luckily, I did B/C my car start leaking a ton of coolant. To be safe, I just called AAA & had them tow the car home. I really didn’t want to jeopardize possibly blowing the motor or causing any major damage.. just disappointed B/C I wanted to drift more.
Anyways, I would like to say “thank you” to Ray for working on my car, paying for my entry anda always supporting me. And, Thanks to Charlie & his staff for a great event. 
Here are the pictures Ray & I took of ourselves drifting & pitting….

Nismo Long Studs & Spacers
Monday, February 22nd, 2010On Valentine’s Day weekend Ray gave me an awesome present – he bought me Echiba 15mm spacers & Nismo long studs. He even installed them. Now, if the car looked more flush, towards “Hella Flush” status then I would be estatic! It still looks a 100x’s better w/the spacers on. Thanks Ray_babes!
LED Lights
Wednesday, February 17th, 2010About a month ago Ray installed & made some custom LED lights for my kouki turn signals/position lights. They are so baller & bright. Can’t wait until we replace the water pump on the hatch so that I can drive the car at night. Thanks Ray_babes!!!
K1 Speed
Tuesday, February 16th, 2010It’s been over a year since Ray & I have been go karting. So,yesterday we went go karting w/the boys. It was our first time at K1 Speed! In addition, we got a pretty sweet weekday deal, $40 for 3 sessions. Only bad part was we had to wait, some of the karts were faster than the others & their were slow ass people in our run group that kept spinning out. Ruben & Will kept doing good getting first place & really fast times. Scott got good times too, I think it’s B/C he goes to GMR. However, when I was lucky enough to get the fast kart I got a 53.94 & got on the time of the week. Poor Ray though he kept getting karts with wobbly seats that were slow & everyone kept bumping into him. Nevertheless, I had a fun time & will have to go again when they are slow & send us some coupons!
