My first run at an actual drift event, ever. Event was held at Altamont Motorsports Park. Obviously, it is not a good run. I've gotten better throughout the day (especially on my third practice run) and was happy that I am finally at a drift event. Unfortunately, this is the only "onboard" footage I have. For details for the missing footage, read the last paragraph in this description. Fortunately, YouTube user mistasam02 captured my other practice runs from the stands. Go check it out at: http://youtube.com/watch?v=0rNwH-ZaIrU The third run is the one you really want to see and was my best one of the day. Also, no actual competition runs were recorded because he had to leave before it started and my new Sony camcorder was acting funny for the rest of the day. About the missing footage: Since my faithful PV-GS32 camcorder died by static electricity back in March, I bought a new one to replace it to film this event just the two days before, a Sony DCR-SR42 hard drive camcorder. I did not come to grips with the all the functions yet and for some weird reason shut off during my runs. I thought it was the hard drive protecting mechanism at first, but I realized that it was on during the first run and did not shut off. I am still figuring it out...
