Night-Import: Photography by William Lee
The final rounds was more than intense! Stands were packed with spectators and the sound of cheers for their favorite drivers were echoing throughout the whole stadium.
Faces of participating drivers were full with confidence and enjoyment, but standing couple of feet away from them could be felt with adrenaline rushing in their body expressed by the sound of their cars.
I was not able to stay until the end, but did capture some awesome moments, so let the last coverage of Gymkhana begin!
Not as crowded like Formula D, but this was a good amount of people. Hoping this event can be reached out to more automotive fans.
Smashed taillights and a bent exhaust? Doesn't matter! It's only a mark.
Before 7pm (actual time for the final rounds), there was a burn-out competition.
The track was covered with tire marks and smoke!
This driver was crazy with his evo, hitting plastic barrels and spinning everywhere.
Michael Essa taking the spotlight with his BMW 350R. He was the winner of the Burn-Out Competition.
Joon Maeng driving around the whole track.
It seems like I missed posting up some photos of this 350Z. Driven by Kevin Abbring, this Z runs with Bio-Methanol and is extremely powerful.
His setup course for the competition was one of a kind. All the participating staffs of his team ran to the tracks and this is what happened.
Now...RUN!!!!!!!!!!
Vaughn Gitten Jr. used his Formula D Mustang to participate.
I was really looking forward to see this S13 on VIP Modular Wheels rock the stage, but the competition ended right when he was about to enter.... :/

Everyone going crazy. Loved this moment.
Ken Block's opening and the rounds begin. I was planning to tell you guys who vs. who, but because I didn't cover the entire final event, I'll just share some photos
Very dangerous moment here because a young kid went over the boundary to take a shot in front of a drifting car and almost got hit.
Some shots before I left the event.
Hope everyone enjoyed our coverage for Gymkhana. Thank you for checking out our site and make sure to drop by again for awesome event coverages and features. Peace!
