The long awaited on-season has finally arrived, and you can be pretty darn sure that everybody in the Drift Posse camp is in a state of drifting happiness. After a dismal winter with hardly any snow at all, it was about time that things got started, and they certainly started off with a bang!
But before we go any further, I should mention that we’ve got a new logo up and running finally! I gotta say, I’m really stoked about this one. Past logos were too simple, or downright hard to print, but now I think we’ve gotten a handle on the situation! And now, here it is, the official unveiling!!! Check it out:
I think we’ve definitely got a winner here! Stock up now on your t-shirts, with more gear to come in the near future!!
And now for some slightly more important news, Drift Mania Canadian Championships Round One is now behind us and in the books. Excitement was oozing from every moment of action at this event, and it was a hell of a weekend for the Drift Posse boys! The weekend started with a bang, with Drift Posse’s newest member Peter Chrisikopoulos meeting with the wall in practice on Saturday. Peter is confident, however, that he and the car will be more than ready to really tear some faces off at Montmagny for DMCC Round 2. Pat Cyr and Brad Carlton continued throughout the practice day with some good practice runs, even managing to get in a couple tandem runs with each other to really pump up the fans.

Sunday went by just as smoothly, once again. Practice went by with no problems of any sort, and both Pat and Brad were looking ready to make their respective ways to the top of the podium. This was confirmed when both drivers battled for the top qualifying spot, in the end with Brad qualifying in first, and Pat right behind qualifying second, which put them on opposite brackets for the competition. Pat’s day would be cut short in the Great 8 battle against Dave Briggs, due to a throttle cable malfunction mid-run that prevented Pat from being able to continue. Brad would not let his teammate’s loss go unavenged, however, taking a win over Dave Briggs in the battle for 3rd place, making his way up to the podium for the first time. With all this being said, I’m really a lot better at expressing the weekend’s events in video format. So here it is, I present to you the latest Drift Posse video! Enjoy!
