XDC / REMIX Car Show & Concert
Firebird International Raceway (Phoenix, AZ)
April 23, 2011




I must love this track since I seem to be there regularly.  

This time it was for Xtreme Drift Circuit's season opener and the Remix car show.  Bikinis, beer, chrome, and tire smoke.... What else could anyone ask for?!?  I arrived with my good friends Justin Muir from Pure Street Photo and Chris Minshall of CMpixels Photography.  The day turned out to be absolutely perfect.  The clouds kept temps down a touch and provided a huge soft box for us lucky enough to be on track with our cameras.  The drifting was top notch, the models were hot, and so were the drivers!  I can't thank the people at XDC for being so accommodating to all their media interests.  Props for putting on a great event for us to cover!  If you haven't been to an XDC event you are missing out.  Proof is in the pics...
