went to my first gymkhana practice today. it was a blast. i was one of like 10 cars and the only american. every one else was japanese. they were awesome. i wish i would not have forgot my camera. i was way slow but im still learning my car and it was the first time i hit the track with it. i was about 15 seconds slower then the fastest time. i have definitely identified a few upgrades that are needed. so on the list in the near future; a new set of wheels for track use only with some sticky tires, front and rear strut tower bars, rear sway bar, SS brake lines, slotted rotor w/EBC yellow stuff pads and a different set of coil-overs, and a darn drift ebrake knob. (even with it taped down it kept catching) once i get this stuff down and some practice i should be able to put down some pretty good times. if any one has an interest in this stuff you should really find a local place and set it up. it really is a blast!!!!!!!!!

What is it? I think I have seen videos of what your talking about. and if so it looked fun. IS there anyone in the States that does it?

this is pretty much my favorite video of gymkhana its ken block he's like number 2 pretty much in the world. Tanner Foust always kicks his butt.
Ken Block

its like a mix between autocross and drift. the courses get very technical as you can see in the video, but he is a professional. its one of the quicker growing auto sports especially over here in japan. i know there are places in the states that have the events just depends on where you are at.
