Welcome back to NI! It's finally that time when car shows and meets will be poppin every week, as well as local small events such as LVD Drift, which you are about to see a coverage of today covered by our contributor Dan Purpura. LVD Drift is one of those events for the drifting enthusiasts. It doesn't matter if you're a pro or not, because it's open to every class and level. Lebannon Valley Dragway, aka LVD, is the place to be at if you want to see drifters showing off their skills.

To some of us, it's the smell of burnt tires in the morning that replaces the caffeine in coffee. The drifters who participated in the recent drifting event called Drift Fraction are the ones who fit into that category. Not too long ago, Jim brought us a coverage on last year's Drift Faction and the response from the community was overwhelming. It's always a pleasurable sight to see such organized events for the grassroots because there aren't so many out there and through my blog, I'm pleased to share such events so that the popularity of this event can grow and give some sort of an idea to those who plan on organizing one. This year's Drift Faction event was as good as last year's, tons of people participating and showing off their skills.

Grassroot drifters are what makes the drifting scene exciting because one day, one of those grassroots might become the next professional drifter competing at a major drifting event, such as Formula Drift. We all need to start somewhere no matter what we do. For grassroots, it's the continuous and consistent practice, trying to claim rewards, recognition, and the name grassroots itself, which is only a beginning title and a step forward to their future success in drifting. This event coverage, covered by our contributing photographer Jim Davis, called Drift Faction is exactly what many amateur drifters look forward to. Drift Faction is a once a month event and according to Jim, he tags a long with our other contributor Dan Purpura to take some shots and chill with these guys. Although the set of photos I'm about to share were taken last year, I want you guys to get a taste of Drift Faction and join the event this year.
