Awesome! Same here, I plan to shoot alot more this year(Guess I should upload some of my drifting photos ha), As long as I'm not actually drifting myself. Can't wait to see more drifting from you. The European guys do not hold back!

Awesome capture Are the holes in the rear window for exhaust?

Styrox-Art In reply to 914four [2013-01-23 17:13:10 +0000 UTC]

I seriously have no idea what they are there for. There are two more on the other side of the car, and they all lead down to a metal box in the back!

My guess would be a smoke generator, or possibly an oversize air intake for the diesel...

From the same town as I. I actually know where his garage is.
One of the guys on the team bought a W123 wagon from my dad a few years before they started drifting. WHo knows this beast may use parts from our beloved Benz we used to go shopping with.

He's a very skilled driver! He has gained a lot of fans outside Finland the last few years, and he even got featured at Speedhunters.com about a month ago! Let's hope he keeps this up so we can see more of him around the globe!
