Nikolay has been a constant face in the NW drift scene since its beginnings, so this driver profile has been a long time coming.

Seattle FD/ProAm Joshua Herron Style

August 18, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment 

When it comes to drifting videos Joshua Herron is in a league of his own. His cut on the Seattle FD and ProAm at Evergreen Speedway is top shelf and pushes the cinematography envelope further than ever.

Evergreen Drift ProAm driver cameos include:

  • Roland Gallagher - 0:08
  • Nikolay Konstantinov - 0:26
  • Angry Earl’s world famous FC Truckasauras - 0:37
  • Chris Jeanneret - 0:41
  • Roland (again!) - 1:31
  • Cyrus Martinez tandem crash from Friday practice with Nikolay skilfully avoiding the carnage. Cyrus was able to replace the broken front control arms just in time to make qualifying.  - 2:01
  • Ian Founier- 2:45

The crazy thing is if you didn’t know these were ProAm drivers you’d be forgiven for thinking they were FD pros. Watch out - the Northwest is coming for you. . . .

Enjoy ~

Round 3 // Pictures and Recap

August 17, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment 

Round 3 had hands down the best tandem battles yet witnessed at an Evergreen Drift competition. Last season it wasn’t until the top 4 bracket did the tandem action start to get intense. This year, with the drivers and their cars advancing at a rapid pace the competition gets crazy at the great 8.

After a overcast and gray week Sunday brought clear sky and 70 degree temps. Perfect for a day at the track.
