It has been five years since this was created. DriftMechaniks got in a bit of trouble for making what we thought was just a funny take on an existing Formula D poster. We meant no harm with it. This was around the time most of us were just making the transition into the professional arena… and still had street drifting in our blood (I for one, refuse to let that blood thin). This was also around the time that qualifiers were rampantly appearing in the strangest (it seemed) of places. We thought… why not spoof our own qualifier on OUR streets.
At the time we were asked to remove this from the internet, and rightfully so. It was misleading, and sort of wreckless. But it was funny (at least to us), and since 5 years have passed… I think it is safe to post up here.
Good times back then. Drifting was fun. This spoof illustrates that.
Thanks to Cody Wellons for the p-shop action from a great era.
*** UPDATE ***
Apparently there was a preliminary version of the LB flyer that had type on it identical to what Cody originally chopped. He found an example of it using the Wayback Machine. Also… Hello, Tony Schulz!
Haha, still one of my favorite photchop jobs ever. Can’t believe it really has been 5 years though, that seems absolutely crazy. Can’t wait for v2 though! 🙂
remake must happen
