Drift Posse on Hector i gCeanada
One of the dopest things i’ve seen in a while! Hector i gCeanada was at Mosport while DMCC was in town. They met up with Canada’s best drift team, the Drift Posse! Pat’s interview is around 9-10 minutes in. The whole show was actually very interesting!

DriftOps October 9th Drift Day
This was a HUGE turn out! It was crazy! Not only was this day perfect but Pat Cyr also brought home the Championship at the Formula D Pro Am Competition!!!! This was by far the greatest day of the year. I was also able to get my drift cherry popped as well thanks to Peter Chrisikopoulos of the Drift Posse.
“I decided to mess around with new effects and what not, found a pretty cool tutorial on this. I’ll drop a link at the end”
“Getting lots of love from spectators as I go around with Peter. We hit about 200km/h on the straight, what up.”
“You can’t see the needle on the speedometer. That’s because it was spinning around, we were going atleast 6000km/h here.”
“It was my time for this to happen, I knew it would one day as I watched my friend Andrew endure the rocks and dirt at DMCC, My ear was actually cut open a bit.”
I focused a lot of my work on Peter’s car. He’s an amazing drifter who needs more credit. He was also nice enough to give me a ride for some in car shots, I had no idea what to take photos of so I just set my shutter speed to about 400 and just snapped anything. I really wasn’t even looking in the view finder a lot because of the helmet but I think I got some decent ones.
“Everyone was getting close to the wall on this last corner, I don’t know why. I know I’d crap my pants if I were them, that’s the corner of hell”
“We don’t know how this happened, A tire blew and we came back with the bumper dragging and missing part of the skirt.”
“My favorite shot of the event I got. I wished the car would of been a little bit more sharp but I still love it!”
“Battle scars, that’s all that’s needed to be said.”

Drift Mania Round 6 Results/Photo Teaser
DMCC Round 6 was my first big event I’ve shot at. I loved every second of it to! The energy felt good there as the day went on, not as big as the Quebec events but still makes you feel great. I met JAG for the first time to and he seemed really cool, haha. The set up of the track was perfect for media, there was so much freedom for photographers and filmmakers, some spots were kinda iffy to me though. The spot in the trees was only goo for the first corner and first straight at the top of the hill. Other than that your photos were smoke ruined. The last corner was sort of a low speed one, and by the time both cars reached there if they haven’t spun they were separated enough to ruin door to door pictures.
Round 6 Top 3
1. Marc Landreville
2. Bob Patinka
3. Claude Poirier
Matt Waldin could of place 3rd or still in 4th if his engine didn’t blow up.
Again, the Champion of DMCC was Matt Waldin leaving Pat Cyr to another Second Place finish. This is only pouring gas on the flame to let Sir Pat of Cyr burn higher. Next year will be his year!
