Congatulations To One Of Our Own!

[missbecjane]

One of our state's (and country's!) most renowned drifters (and Skyline driver/owner!), Linden Reynolds, is in Japan with a group of Australians for the Drift Matsuri festival at Ebisu. It's 32 hours of straight drift on 7 tracks at one location - crazy!

It draws drivers from all over the world, from countries including Australia, USA, UK, New Zealand, Denmark etc etc... As a result of this, Option DVD held a competition for all the international drivers.

In an unfamiliar car (a Laurel with a fairly stock RB25 in it), on an unfamiliar track, our very own our Lindo WON the competition!!!

Yes I'm proud, I'm happy to admit it, so just thought I'd share our piece of excitement with you!!!

CONGRATULATIONS LINDO!!!

Well done mate do the aussie's proud

[Iron Chef]

lol I was gonna ring them last night Bec to see how they went, but thought I better wait until the festivities were over and they'd recovered.

That's awesome news, massive congrats to Lindo and all the lads repping us over there.

For those who don't know, the Matsuri organisers always run an impromptu comp over the course of the weekend, and they decide what it's going to be after the event has started (try doing that at a CAMS event lol). This time around it was called the G1 (G standing for gaijin haha) and all the foreigners were invited to have a crack at winning it. I actually think Luke Fink won the last one too, so us Aussies seem to be doing pretty well over there!
