Just Drift / CHP Toy Drive 11/28 & 11/29
December 3rd, 2009 by john
For the love of charity! Just Drift along with the California Highway Patrol have come up with a fun way to help give a meaningful holiday for those kids in need. The annual JD / CHP Toy Drive at Willow Springs Balcony course is a great way for drivers to come drive at a discount when donating a toy to the CHP. $75 a day!
Speaking of the CHP, how often is it you see them enjoying the view of drifters sliding sideways in front of them? They had the best seat in the house. For me… it was freezing!!!! So I set up camp inside the trailer. 🙂
City Tire’s mobile setup.. without tent, because the wind was blowing so hard. Here is Oscar at work on some tires with our Hunter TC3500 tire changer.
Often times, people ask if we do more than tires, and the answer is YES! Tires, Wheels, Suspension, Alignments, Shocks/Struts, Coilovers etc etc etc… Good thing, because our friend Chris with a new Hyundai Genesis coupe had a bit of a mishap on Sunday. His wheel came flying off his car on the track. He ended up breaking all his wheel studs and bending 2 rear arms.
After a quick trip to AutoZone, we put his new wheel studs in and was able to hammer the 2 bent arms straight so that he can make it home safe on his donut spare.
Just Drift driver Chris “Flybert” Mendoza showing his skill all day at the Toy Drive. Also this red S14 with an OPEN DIFF.. was just murdering it.
Whoa! Cone killer!! A great way to learn or just get better in skill overall is to join the JD Drift clinic. They have beginner, intermediate, and advanced clinics to suit all driver levels. Many drivers who start off doing donuts and figure 8s in the morning, are able to drive the intermediate and advance courses by the end of the day.
Thanks to Just Drift and the California Highway Patrol for having us out there!
They do have Toy Drive #2 coming up the weekend of December 19th and 20th so please don’t forget to sign up!
