By Jarod DeAnda, May 12, 2010

Hello world…
Formula Drift Atlanta round 2 came and went, there are winners and losers at every event but overall I like to think that EVERYBODY’S a winner doing what they love (drivers/staff/crew), the sponsors (involved in what they believe) and of course the FANS!!!(They pay to play and experience the spectacle that is Formula Drift)

Joshy D. the President says
“We just released a new poster in the shop. It’s a personal fav. I actually requested Mike to dig up this original ad and print it as a poster. I think it’s been at least 10 years since this was first drawn and available… Although they are signed by Mike Giant and numbered 100/100, we only have 50 in stock, selling for $50 a piece.”
