Kplayground October 16 Track Day
What a great turn out this was! There were a bunch of lappers out there today that gave it all they had, even so much there were a few crazy spins and someone even got stuck on the straight away on the Fabi Track. I also want to thank all the drivers that taped up there plates or remove them. You save me so much time! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

The M&S Race Team made an appearance there with there Lancer and Civic SI’s. They weren’t the only team out there though! The SG-Motorsport 350z was out there along with the GT2 #96 Audi Car was there. Who could also forget the beautiful ATR Civic SI. I loved the sound coming from that thing.
I have good news as well! Since it was such an amazing day, Kplayground will be renting out the Fabi on October 26th at 2pm to 5pm. I’ll have all the details up later!

Kplayground Final Event!
It’s 12:30 in the AM right now so I thought I’ll give away some surprises! Tomorrow at Shannonville is the Kplayground Off Season track day from 1-5pm. There are a few Professionals coming down tomorrow, we have Sasha from SG-Motorsport in his 350z and the ATR Honda Team will be there with there Civic SI and Fit. I will be having a discount on prices seeing as it is the last event for the year. It’s about 60% off from what I was charging before! Please see details below the event information.
I’m predicting this will be the biggest turn out of all the Kplayground events seeing as it is the last event of the year for them. So please come out even if you are driving! It’s amazing to see these guys run out there!

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.”

Kplayground “Civic” Holiday!
What a coincidence that Kplayground happens to be running on the “Civic” Holiday, haha! Anyways, I don’t have much to say. Heres a few photos from the set, and I’ll leave you with the link to check the rest out.
I haven’t really ever seen any problems with cars or anything at a Kplayground event, but one of the drivers was having some problems with his driveshaft which led to it breaking unfortunately.
![3]](http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4137/4867269606_446218b668_z.jpg)
Sorry!
It’s been a while since I’ve been able to post anything up, but I know R-Dan has been keeping you guys busy while I’ve been busy. I’d just like to thank him. Right now, I am in the process of editing and uploading the Kplayground Civic Holiday August 22 photos right now.
So those will be up soon! Just wait a about 1 more day!
Kplayground July 18 Coverage
This was an amazing turn out! There was loads of people there! There was even an Elise in the Parking lot although it wasn’t part of the event it was still cool to see! It was a shame though, the Kplayground sponsored CCTCC #45 car was there, I wanted to have a ride in it but than it started to rain. Once it started pouring out it triggered pretty much everone who was on the track to spin out at the exact same time, haha. Anyways, I won’t keep you bored with my ranting. Heres some photos!
Oh one last thing, with this shoot I tried to focus on more still shots in the pits because it was darker out than normal so it was hard to get decent action shots.
“The Kplayground Crew working hard! Also, I might mention, Ken thought this spot to hang the banner was perfect because people would have to walk by it to go to the washroom.”
“The crew’s cars. One of the favorite shots I took this event. Its just the color from the cars and all that. It just stands out and looks amazing.”
DriftOps #2
Alright, If you weren’t able to make it out to DriftOps event #1 at Shannonville now is your chance! I expect a great outcome for this one! Event 1 was awesome so #2 should be even better. If anyone is looking to prepay get in contact with me and I can hook you up.
So the first drift day of the year was AWESOME… RAWR!
I know there were a lot of other people that wanted to come, but couldn’t because of Father’s Day and of course DMCC.
Some of the cars that came out had some issues to sort out and maybe didn’t get as much time on the track as they wanted.
BUT, that was yesterday. We need to think about the future.
