  13. I deserve these tickets because Connecticut blows and their are no drift events here. Even though im going to E-Town. You already know Long Beach kicks ass, plus if i could chose one driver to be with it would be between Calvin Wan and his beasty S15 or Mad Mike and his 4 rotor FD (if he’s there)

    Peaceee

  14. I believe I deserve a chance at receiving this opportunity to have a ride-along with one of the Formula Drift drivers. I love drifting with a passion ever since I was little. If I could afford a car that is used for drifting, I definitely would, but I can’t. If I get this, it would help me stay out of trouble. I would buy the ticket myself, but money is tight for me, since I have to pay for school. This would be a great experience for me. Thank you for your time.

  15. I love Formula Drift ! I DVR’d last season on BRIGHTHOUSE ! My two college girls Jewel Toyomi and Nicole Yukiko became big Fans. We have attended local events here at Orlando Speedworld (aka OSW).
    I am a 54 yr old S13 driver.I hope to “Drift before I draw Social Security”! I have been slowly converting my S13 to Track Day readiness.It has quite a long way to go to get there.I am representing your 1% of the “old guy” fans! I used to drive a 1969 Dodge 440 six pack to Independence High in Charlotte,North Carolina.
    I hope to bring my grandsons to a Formula Drift event soon !
    Thanks,

  16. Hi names Magnus an I have been into drifting since my junior year of high school in 05 I cant say I knew much about cars at the time but I had a thriving passion to learn after years of searching the internet for any and every site possible I have acquired enough information to be able to fix, build, and drive a car for many types of racing. Now I cant tell you I have a better car then anyone here or that I can drive like any D1, Formula D, or any street teams but I can tell you I love cars and I learn from the things I see. I am currently pursuing my career in the automotive industry as well as getting my certification in auto mechanics. I would love to be able to go to one of the biggest events in the US. To me there will never be anything better than drifting an nothing more intriguing then the cars in it. Please Pick Me It would be an honor. PS Daijiro Yoshihara the legend Forrest Wang the Future!

  17. Hello! Not only would the tickets be awesome but to ride along one of the drivers would be a once in a lifetime opportunity. I would consider it an honor to represent all the female drift fans out there! Also, it would be the perfect gift for my fiancee who just had surgery and has been a bit down. Other than winning the lotto I know this would be one of the handful of things that would cheer him up!!

    Thanks for your consideration!

  18. My Lord’s of Drifting!!!! I should win because I’m an angel 0:-), but the devil in me wants to raise hell with my favorite driver on the track! >;-)

  19. PICK ME because ive always wanted to see a drift race in person ive never heard of drift racing till i was flipping threw channels ever since then ive always wanted to know what it would be like at a drift race!

  20. Oh man,if I got these tickets I would probably be the luckiest kid on earth. I sort of realized how cool drifting was when I started doing it in Gran Turismo 4 and ever since then I’ve been dreaming of going to a drift school. I don’t think Infineon Raceway has one though =/. My school requires me to do an internship with at least 50 hours of work and one idea I had was to intern with a drift racer, if i got a ride along it would help me out a lot in school =D. Thanks for giving the chance to win these awesome tickets.
    Peace,

  21. I really want to go to round 1 because it might be the last drift event I can go to for a while since I will be leaving for the Marines soon. I recently signed up and am set to go as soon as possible. I have as of yet to experience a real drift so a ride along would be, well it would be amazing. The closest I came was driving my families 1967 Malibu in the rain with horrible tires and a motor that had to much torque.

  22. I dont think I should win the tickets as to i think someone else should have a chance to go to an event that has never been to one since I have. But if I do get a ticket or two to go to Irwindale, I would love to go. I adore drifting and its art. I am soon going to try out for formula D when i fix my car and get going. I hope you have a wonderful drift session as they are all great.

  24. please pick me cause i never miss a drift event in long beach or irwindale, i love drifting and drifting is like church were i cant miss it, it my religion.

  25. Hi my name is alex and i think i should get the tickets. Im also a drifter and i would like to go pro someday and if i would win those tickets this would be a dream of mine to start. I wanna know how you guys feel drifting with all the other competiters i wanna smell the tires burn. Dai Yoshihara you the man!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  26. I think i should win as im travelling over from ireland to this, went over to the red bull drift championships and irwindale 3 times over the last few years, compete in drifting over here and absolutely love drifting and everthing about it, flights are booked so see you over there.

  27. I am the biggest fan!
    1. I came from Hungary because of drifting!
    2. I have registered licence plates in two different states with “MR DRIFT” !
    All mine!
    3. On all the online forums that’s my screenname!
    So the next time when they will ask why I have this name I can tell them that it’s because I’m sponsored by them! 😉
    I’m going to all drift events as long as my work and family let me do it!

    Thank You,

    Andras Deak

  28. i think i should win the tickets because i loved cars since i was little and i love drifting more than any other type of racing i all ways wanted to be in a drift car and meet rhys millen, vaughn gittin jr, and Dai Yoshihara

  29. Everyone should deserve to ride along with a professional driver. Drifting is perhaps the pinnacle of car control and artistry, and to be able to experience the complexities first hand would really set it in peoples minds what the standards really are, and encourage enthusiasts like myself to really reach that level of precision. I see a lot of people ..including myself learning this sport who unfortunately have nothing to go on but media and their own limited experiences with which to draw their goals and standards from without really understanding whats involved or how to get there.

    It would change the perspective entirely to really sit next to someone near the top of the game, establishing an almost never ending goal that will be challenging and fulfilling for years on end to reach. That’s what I would expect from this experience and why I would like to have it. =D

    Either way I will still be there.

  30. Lol j/k. I wont be at long beach 🙂 But Ill be at Atlanta w00t

    But If I win I might fly there ^_^

  31. Pick me plz I love drifting along w everyone else here. 2 years ago I didn’t know anything about this sport. Until I met my bf he started taking me to the events and showing me dvds I wanna become a pro girl drift next to Jr Chris rhys and all them I just think this would bbe my best experience for me. Going sideways knowing what to do and everything I love it so much thanks guys luv midge!!!

  32. ive been a huge fan of drifting since it started over here in the US in 2003. Money has always been an issue when it comes down to buying my ticket for the event, everytime i go to get my ticket something always happen’s and im unable to buy the ticket. im a drifter on a video game called forza motorsport 2 fairly known on the forzamotorsport.net forums in the drifting area. i have entered many drifting contest’s and never won 🙁 i would like to win this. Please Pick Me!

  33. hello, i think this is a great opportunity you are doing, and i feel i deserve a chance because if i win, it would be my first formula D event which im assuming would be a great experience, i have experience in drifting but not in a professional level it would be greatly appreciated. thank you

  34. You want to see something special, that you have not seen?

    Instead of you letting me a Ride-along, you’ll want to get a ride-along with me.

    Trust me, you will not regret choosing me 🙂

    Do it…. You know you want to.!

  35. i want nd deserve a ticket coz ive neva been 2 ne thin like this b4 neva had the chance coz i dnt come from a wealthy family so neva hav enuf money 2 go 2 ne thin i love drifting i watch videos all the time nd now i want a chance 2 c it all happen live.

  36. the Reason why i want this is because i want to give it to 2 of my best friends that i used to live with in California. their birthdays were in the beginning of this month and i didnt get them anything because i had no money. would be great if i could get these but i dont live in cali no more =/

  37. i would like these tickets because i love drifting. i mean i watched all the episodes (Stages) of Initial D. When my mom was looking for a car to drive i talked her into getting a hachi roku but she came home with a hachi go :(. i also dont know what its like to drift and always wanted to experience it cause the hachi go cant… and i’m a huge fan of keiichi tsuchiya! he’s awesome!

    but dont pick me because there is no way i will be able to make it to CA from FL

  38. I would love it sooo much if I could win this once in a lifetime ride-along opportunity! I’m flying all the way from Massachusetts to attend my very first professional drifting event AND to visit my family in Long Beach. Although I’ve already gotten tickets, I would love to share winning tickets with members of the NEdrift forum which I’m so glad to be a member of! All I can say is I LOVE DRIFTING!

  40. please pick me my b-day is the april 3rd and we are going for my bday i would love to get a ride along drifting this will be my first event and i have been hooked on formula d on tv this would be the best present pick me please and thanks

  41. Pick me. Times are tough and money is tight. I’ve been to every round 1 since the beginning. Would hate to break the streak now. I’ve been a loyal customer… time for some payback. 😉

  43. I would love to win these tickets because it would be a life experience. It would be something very memorable to me, something that i would never forget. I am some what new to drifting, my first event was 2007 at Irwindale and i thought it was the greatest thing ever, i actualy traded in my civic for a 350z to get more in to the drifting life style. I have been so hooked that i try and go to every event possible. In 2008 i attended the long beach, vegas, and irwendale events and love it each and every time i go. I am a big fan of all the drifters that have a chance to do this as a career and admire them and would love the chance to ride along.

  45. I think IT WPULD BE TOTALLY AWESOME IF I COULD WIN Because I would love surprise my husband with free tickets. He loooooves drifting to the point that thanks to all he’s taught me about it has build some sort of love and passion for it. He really want’s to go but we are super broke and also we never win anything. It will be an amazing experience to share with the love of my life

  46. I have been to only one drift event and that one event was an open track which was in an airport. Lots of people, not a lot of actual drifting. I drift my S14 and going to an event would be very inspirational. Thanx.

  47. April 11th is my 21st Birthday! all I want is to ride along with Ken Gushi in his Scion TC!!! That would be the best day of my life! Thanks and I hope you pick me!
