Marco had the most solid runs of the day for GT, close to the wall…good lines, but couldnt keep up with JR in speed. Marco put out 500% and so did the GT team all weekend. So proud of these boys, Canada definitely left their mark at the event. Many teams and spectators came by the tent telling us how amazed they are about how solid the team was…congratulations to marco and representing the great white north!

I agree with Samson this wasn’t a world drifting championship. Big probs to Marco for doing his thing though, it must of been a great experience being there.

It may not be the world championship but who cares it’s a start. Without a start the scene is going nowhere. I hope to see some developments in Canada and would love to see the Canadian leagues grow and gain popularity.

There are pics of Pawlak’s crash, on the same site I posted Marco’s from.

Vids are few and far between from my extensive searches.

Maybe ziptied has some stuff?
