Monster Energy Hi-Octane Drift D1 Style
Eglinton, Northern Ireland – 4 Sep 2011
The beginning of September saw my first visit to the land of my fathers (well, great great grandfather). I was invited over by SleepyCat Photography’s Colin and Glenda to capture the day on their behalf as they wouldn’t have any time to take photos themselves due to them playing a major role in the organisation of the event. Well, having built up a friendship over the past few months, and me wanting to visit Ireland for several years now anyway, I couldn’t refuse could I? (more…)

Round 5 of Drift Allstars brings the series back to the UK after the two rounds on the continent.

British Drift Championship – Round 3
Saturday 2 / Sunday 3 July 2011 – Teesside Autodrome, Middlesbrough
My second visit to Teesside this year and we had blazing sunshine again. This time the sun was accompanied by searing heat. It was an absolutely gorgeous day weatherwise for the spectators, however the drivers were struggling a bit. As the day wore on and the temperatures rose they had to use the practice run before each battle just to slowly drive round the track trying to cool the engines. (more…)
Castlefin Drift Day – 22 May 2011

Filippo Pirini and His Little Rocket
The day after Round 1 of the Drift Allstars European Series, Scotty invited me up to skylinepart.com HQ to photograph Filippo Pirini’s Mazda MX5 (Miata) NB which Scotty described as “a work of art”. Well, I couldn’t refuse could I? Filippo has been staying with Scotty until Round 2, with both rounds being held here in the North East. When I got to the farm, a stunning example stood before me (the car not Scotty).
