Re: The Old Days
I know I'm missing some from that era (esp. 09) but was fun to look through the ones that were there. I think some of the events in 08 had to have been some of my favorite times drifting, felt like the pressure of running the pro stuff had passed and it was just a super fun year of running tandem with bros in cars that were finally sorta dialed in, haha (and then obviously GGM1 was such an insane time too).

Re: The Old Days
Such much drift racing... And I agree with you. 2008 was solid
Re: The Old Days
I agree with y’all. It felt like a return home in a post-pro sense of the word.

Re: The Old Days
That era was prime for me too. Though never having tried pro stuff, I had just stepped into the m3 and was partying with y'all full time on track. If I was to pick a time to call the glory days, that would be mine for sure

It really was lightning in a bottle! I think I say that all the time. But it's true!!

Just got around to adding a couple more years (2010-2011) - https://codywellons.wpengine.com/old-photos/
Re: The Old Days
MAN. I love these all so much. I can't really wrap my head around how special it is that you... along with everyone else that documented that time... did so. Like I can't even formulate the words to describe how special it is.
There were so many times going through those that I audibly sighed, or said YOOOO because it was such a surprise to see so many moments from back then. I can't thank you enough for going through your archive and digging ALL of these up. It means the world to me... especially seeing Tyler every time he's in a photo.
Love you dude. Thank you.

Re: The Old Days
Ahhh man, so glad you're getting just as much enjoyment out of looking through them, it's been absolutely amazing looking back through everything!
Also super glad so many of us have carried cameras around for so long, haha (and side note, pretty sure some of these shots from the last few years were from Alex/Panda/etc but somehow ended up on my computer so I just added 'em in, haha). So good to have all those memories.

Re: The Old Days
HOLY MEMORY LANE! Some I don't even remember. Agree with Andy, thanks to everyone who always has a camera with them to document.
Re: The Old Days
Dude. SO so much enjoyment. It's the best.
It's wild to me how you don't ever have a full grasp of just how incredible a time in your life is until you're looking at it in the rearview. It's infinitely special that we can actually look back at such a time and see just how incredible it truly was.
Lightning in a bottle, man. All of it. All of y'all... all of these times...

Re: The Old Days
That is one thing I wish I could go back and do in life… take more pictures of the things and people around me! I’ve only recently started taking pictures of random fun or interesting situations haha
Re: The Old Days
I've been a bit obsessive my entire life about documenting things in one way or another... and even I beat myself up for not doing a better job. I think the important thing... is even if you start doing it late... that you started doing it in the FOERST place!
Re: The Old Days
Very very true! “Better late than never” right?!
