The Inaugural round of the Drift West series started off at Strato tech park on a gloomy Saturday morning. While it was a new series to western Canada, it was still business as usual.

Back in the day, back before Alex Lee got his Formula D debut, back before all the drama in the western league. We got to see some of the best drifting the west had to offer.

First let me apologize, the title is mis-leading. Bob Ross had probably never heard  of drifting. Second, if you don’t know who Bob Ross is, look it up.  However, I will be darned if the backdrop in some of these photos could not double as a landscape in one of his paintings. I have been to a few drift venues but never one that looked so little like a track.  You could say that everyone reveled in the Joys of Drifting that day. ( Again, see Bob Ross Reference)

Canada’s premier drift series, DMCC, launched its 2011 season in the west this past weekend.  DMCC has been growing in leaps and bounds, while providing a venue for Canadian drivers to cut their teeth at a professional level.  In fact, a few Formula D drivers got their start in DMCC.  Sunday showed just how consistent the Canadian talent has become, every year the drivers of this series push the boundaries of your expectations.  Round 1 in  Calgary was no exception as we saw the return of a few familiar faces.

I managed to grab some footage from DMCC Round 4.  However, I did not bring the camera out on Sunday for fear of water damage. Anyway, since Jordan did such a good job of showing up for Pro Am, I let him pick the song. Dub Step is all the rage, so let’s try to cash in.

In all seriousness thanks to everyone for making DMCC Round 4 possible.  And a huge thanks to all the drivers for giving me something to film.
