Thanks for sharing those, if I was a professional photographer and couldn't do any better than that I would give up. How the heck does McQuarrey get to drive the Porsche 911 in a US versus Japan event?

That they are.

I've been at D1 events as Media and getting a sweet shot is easy. Which makes me wonder wtf autoblog was doing there shooting lousy images.



The fact autoblog posted their terrible pictures tells me that Drifting is slowly creeping into the real motorsport world... someday they too (autoblog) will have better drift photos.

I am sure you will be at the truck flip New Years Eve? Rhys has lost his mind. I guess if you have never been to a Drift the autoblog stuff would be OK, I am just glad they are covering it. Max says they will be in Fla. next year but not West Va. I hope they do some more East Coast stuff.

Truck flip? In their arena truck?

Nah, I'm not interested in that.

oh those pics in particular were not snapped by me.
the good guys at DriftFotos snapped most of those.

I haven't snapped a motorsport event for a few months now.

NEW YEAR’S EVE + LAS VEGAS + WORLD RECORDS = THE RED BULL EXPERIMENT Robbie Maddison and Rhys Millen looking to break boundaries and records

Santa Monica, Calif. (November 20, 2007) – The Red Bull Experiment will take the scientific method to a whole new level, testing the limits of the unknown this New Year’s Eve at the Rio All Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. Robbie Maddison and Rhys Millen, two of the most dynamic personalities in motorsports, will be performing two ground-breaking feats in a city that is all about going big. One Experiment will take place at the stroke of midnight on the East Coast, and the second will occur when the clock strikes “12” on the West Coast. At its heart, the DNA of the Red Bull Experiment is simple: the best athletes from around the globe performing world first “experimental” sporting achievements.

Maddison, a freestyle motocross star from Australia, will attempt to jump the length of a football field (more than 300 feet) to set a new motorcycle distance jumping world record. Millen, a champion drifter and movie stunt driver hailing from New Zealand, will attempt the first-ever backflip of an off-road racing truck. Representatives from the Guinness Book of World Records will be in attendance to validate each jump.


if you talk to the RMR crew regularly... get me inside! I have my camera ready for NYE now. I didn't realize it was in my backyard, so ... why not?
