Friday Night Slide

Usually when I head over to one of Driving Sports's Eastern Creek Twilight drifts, it's to take photos, meet people, do interviews and cover the event. Last Friday was a little different however and a nice change may I add. Getting behind the wheel at Twilight drift night is definitely a more involving way to experience one of these events.

Meeting up with Jerry Yam of HOT4s, Jason Gynn of Zoom Magazine, we headed up to the Creek. For these guys it was their their first Twilight drift night. We later were met by our very own beloved editor Tom who had toiled away all day to have a half cage installed into his 180Sx.

We had a blast of night sliding to ourhearts content on the watered down skid-pan. Having been to a number of these meetings before, I can definitely say that it's becoming more and more popular.

A couple of interviews and a stack more photos over the fold and through Jason's Dribble

I had the pleasure of hosting Jason from Zoom Magazine in my passenger seat, here we're getting ready to roll out into the pan.

 

Jerry wanted to climb into the action so flogged himself a helmet from somewhere

 

This here is Reaper's S14... Now SR20 powered but I could swear there was a rotary in it somewhere!

 

Sure it's safe, but doesn't mean that you don't get some shunts and bumps. When I first spotted this I thought the license plate was a wicked sticker!

 

Tom eventually made it, it was our first time sliding together

 

This is Shantell in her Hachi, we were having a blast out on the pan, a few close calls, and plenty of laughs all around

 

The last run of the night I was joined by John who randomly asked if he could jump into my car... Yeah why not?

 

Thanks to Liam Quirk and his girlfriend Ellie from Street Commodores who shot some photos and to Jason for all the driving photography found on his blog Jason's Dribble. I had thevery greatest pleasure of taking Ellie out for a passenger run, I don't think I've ever sang 99 red balloons so hard in my life!

 

I also got to spend a bit of time with Lenny Lee, a funky friend of mine, Singaporean Circuit racer and drifter, I managed to squeeze an interview out of him as well!

 

STAFFROOM

 

Name: My parents named me Leonard Lee YK but keep calling me son, for some reason. My nickname on all forums is karbonphyber and friends call me Lenny!

 

Day job: I'm a software developer and developing software is my specialty! It allows me to create funky calculators which calculate stuff for the 180SX like rim tuck! No other calculator comes close!

 

How did you get into teaching?

It all started when a friend of mine, Josh, referred me to a thread created by Lee from Driving Sports, looking for people who met the three criteria which were:

1. Competed in drifting and at least qualified top 16

2. Communicates knowledge to others clearly and easily

3. Is reliable and well presented

Of which I satisfy two! Everyone understands Singaporean English don't they?

 

What’s the best part of your job?

I feel there are many ‘best parts’ like having the opportunity to be in the environment where real race mechanics are present, learning more about cars from them and meeting new faces. As the top of my list though, it’s the opportunity to bring someone new to drifting from being a zero to a hero, seeing them enjoy their new found skill and actually executing drift manoeuvres smoothly. The smile that you get from them is priceless and that's what I feel is the best part of being an instructor.

 

What’s your motto in life?

People who know me might start shouting ‘safety first’. But the way I try to live my life is ‘Don't try, Don't know!’.

In ‘Don't Try, Don't know!’ I started working DIY on the car for small projects, as opposed to relying on paying a mechanic and then not learning anything in the process. After starting a few small projects like spray painting, fabricating camera mounts, I had graduated on to the larger projects like changing turbos, clutches, swaybars and recently a 5-stud conversion with the help of the Driving Sports crew who taught me that being forceful helps at times. Now I have a whole load of DIYs which will soon make their way back on to TunedForDrift.com! But for now let’s stick to ‘safety first!’.

 

What do you wish to say to all those looking to enrol into school?

A good firm grasp of theory - whether it be circuit driving or even drifting - will bring you far beyond anyone who's just chucking a car around some corners.

Learn things the right way and you'll always have your knowledge to fall back on, in new scenarios. I'm always keen to meet new people and help them out with drifting, so drop me an email to say hi and I'll see you at a Driving Sports event!

 

Stay Tuned for more action when FF&R goes on the ground or future events!

 

Thanks to Liam Quirk and his Misses Ellie Thorley from Street Commodores for sending over some photos, Jerry Yam from HOT4s for his constant hilarities, Jason Gynn from Zoom Magazine for the drifting photogrpahy,  Driving Sports for a great night

*Flashing news ad*
TV News reporter: Empire city conglomerate head Phillips Huynh has today confirmed rumours that he has purchased Nissan Motors and is looking into pumping zillions of dollars into the company in a bid to create the worlds greatest "hectic" classed vehicles. The exuberant leader, who launched into now humbled and understated fruitfulness with the now near-monopolised industry of Hollywood film publishing and production has announced that his vision for Nissan will be beneficial to all the people of the world, promising to eliminate unemployment in every major city, and by implementing an unfounded way of mass global productivity increasing efficiency of the standard workplace by up to 7500%. It was also announced that 75% of profits will go directly to charity to finally rid the world of hunger which thanks to the leaders ambitious mega-programs has seen poverty almost eliminated. When asked what will happen after poverty is eliminated, Phillips replied "We'll continue to do the same thing we've always done for the last decade and a half... Save lives, rescue the needy, and have fun while doing it"... Nissan employees are tonight celebrating the move, employees are; as you can imagine, thrilled to be receiving the news... The claims have received 100% backup from the United Global Leadership as spokeperson and Human Alliance Ambassador Mobalaju Adenubi has claimed that Phillips has far proven his realised idealistic values to the state of humanity... Nissansilvia.com, the worlds largest forum is anticipating on redesigning its entire corporal approach to welcome the global decision.

This is the lates today from VWBC... I'm Alexi Poporov, we'll have updates at a quarter past six...

*Flashing news ad outro*

It's been a long time since I've had trouble telling a lady she's pretty

So this morning I'm running late, a lil more than usual... Kept hitting that snooze button, couldn't get myself out of bed! It was a supernatural weight was pressed upon me! But I finally managed to get out and get ready, all was pretty regular, I remembered to bring an episode of Fruits Basket with me coz I was gonna be in the late train that none of my friends or familiars caught... Dreary rainy day, but I'm wearing shorts, joggers and an ugly training sweater hahaha, classic Phillips fashionista... I brushed my hair though. I get off the slow train to change for the quick one at Lidcombe, and lo and behold one of the hottest ladies I've seen in a loong time... Hot dang ziggity zapp! She was some kind of asian, curvacious, dressed in crisp lines highlighting her attractive qualities... She knew how to dress... Black patterned silk skirt with moderate blue and white striped silk womens work shirt, voguing in smart flat though complimentative work shoes, her hair held up with a neat clip but left out at the back. She had High cheeks even complexion with heart shaped face and lips that would make any strawberry or cherry turn green (with envy)... Man I couldn't help myself, my systems were overridden by the male autopilot in my brain... I fought it as best as I could, but found myself following her into the bottom level of our common train carriage... She sat on the 2nd long bench facing the train movement direction, I sat on the bench against the wall (the ones with the stupid slant that hits your head) facing opposite ie facing her with a passenger between us... I really tried my best to keep reading fruits basket... But it wasn't working... I got some reading done but would keep looking up at her and kept hoping that she would get off at Wynyard... I was like a middle aged Japanese mad... I was scaring myself. She had one earphone plugged into her phone and kept me guessing on who she was, her nationality... If she was Aussie raised (ie she spoke proper English), where she's from and how on Earth have I missed her until now?! So it get's to the nervous stage of the trip... The Redfern, Central, Town-Hall combo... If someone is gonna leave prematurely, it'd be now... But no! She stays! And what's this? As I'm getting ready to jump off as we're approaching Wynyard, she begins packing her headphones and phone away! SHABOOYA! I give way allowing her to lead up the stairs out onto the platform... We both chorus down the same flight of stairs, and exit through adjacent ticket machines in tandem. I begin to give up on the thought and resolve that anything of worth is gonna happen... So I waltz away whistling towards the kent street escalators, but I hear her trademark footsteps following behind... Then witness as this lady overtakes me to ride on the escalator... At this stage, I come to realise that with the way I'm going, there's gonna be no lasting impression, no benefit, no fruit, no ones day is gonna be made any different. I'm gonna have to make a decision... Is this gonna be another freaking day at the office... Or am I gonna make this lady's day? It doesn't matter where she's from, what she does or what happens next... She's left an impression and I should dang well let her know it! So what seems like an eternity going up those dang escalators... I suck up my gut, get familiar with the heart that's well and truely stuck in my throat

I tap her shoulder
"Pardon me miss"
She looks at me
"I'm sorry if this seems inappropriate to you, but I just really want to let you know that you are an extremely attractive girl"
silence
silence
"oh.... thanks!"
RED FACE
"uhh no worries, so you're heading off to work yes?
"yeah I am"
"Marvellous day to be in the office, where do you work?"
"Westpac"
"Really I have a few friends that work there!"
We notice that pedestrian traffic is backed up all the way from the lights of Kent street to the Wynyard station tunnel due to rain
"Oh ok, what do they do?"
"Not sure, I think one of them is a banker, I know one of them is on level fourteen, and the other a little higher... Can't be certain what do you do?"
"I'm in I.T"
"You're in I.T? Really?"
"Yeah"
"That's awesome, what do you do in IT?"
"I'm in training at the moment and am in programming"
"You're a programmer?!"
"Haha yeah, what is it that you do?"
"I work in the lumley building, but yeah I was a 3D animator"
"So you know programming?"
"Not much but yeah, a little, most of my programming involves game scripting"
"wow"
"So how long you been working here?"
"A little over a year"
"So is this like an internship or what-not?"
"Yeah sorta, once I've done 2 years here, I'll be moved into a permanent role"
"Lovely"
Silence as we wait for the lights... I realise my hearts pounding out of my chest and I'm getting the shakes...
"Please let me know if this is inappropriate... Is there a way we stay in touch?"
"I've got a boyfriend"
Big smile"He's a pretty lucky guy"
Stumped"Thanks"
"What's his name"
"Jase"
"Please tell Jase that you met a random called Phil and that he wishes you both the best"
"oh thanks!"
"Have a great day! Might bump into again next time"
"oh uh... yeah bye!"
Jogs down the street almost le parkour style

I think more was said but my head is still kinda cloudy

EDIT: Oh definitely more was said hahaha... Her name is Katrina... LOL... cloudy head

No more CC debt...

I have just payed the remainder of my last credit card at 08:05:06am this morning... When this last amount clears, both my credit cards are gonna be showing $00.00... There went my last 2 and a half year habit... what a shit-fight... (takes a deep breather)... Free air...

Clubbing music ftw

Woot, production at EVO VS WRX day yesterday was pretty full on! I ended up having one in-mount camera drop out on me in a Subie giving the camera a thrashing and being embarassed by the whole ordeal, but pretty much a solid training day, one more training day then Andrew will begin paying me more than lunch and shirts =) ... Next training day should be a drift one. It's hard waking up early on Saturday after a late Friday night! And I had work straight after production assist at the video store... Was just me and Mary and we had a good english chat at last... Sigh had a pretty deeply conversation with mum tonight about people coming in from overseas to study and work in an effort to get a PR... It's totally not as easy as it was once upon a time... And you really have to be willing to BE an Australian, not just live in Australia... Can't just be here coz the life is easier and better... No such thing as a free lunch, I can imagine it being freaking impossible to up and leave and embrace a new culture, but hey I guess it would've been something u would have begun 2 understand when u agreed to do it.

Anyways, I met up with DT after closing the video store and we headed to Butterfy's 21st at a bar in Parramatta (keep forgetting the name of that dang place)... Hahaha we rocked up at 9pm and got blasted for being late... But a couple of drinks round the house and all seemed happy as Larry, met a fair few people and caught up with a some old friends that I hadn't seen in a while... Epic seeing lil ol buttz again, hahaha was well worth facing any awkwards had there ben any, also discovered Su was born and raised in Aus hahaha, she seems to have had similar chilhood television habits to me... Was so wierd being the older guys at the club though ahahha, funny how how everyone seemed tired and abit beyond toasted when we were just getting warmed up hahaha... Hahah like hanging out with teeny boppers ftw. Party ended near midnight with the gang heading off to city extra, kinda regretfully too seeing awesome music started getting played hahaha I'll stick some vids at the end of this... But yeah Dave and I being old and hyped up and just getting started at the time headed east... Considered going 2 the city for more clubbing, but then conceded to have a good old men's talk at Lidcombe Maccas hahaha... Oh man the song they played just as we left was Satisfaction... Pure awesome... The 2nd vid is another killer song

Hoonage and new work

Well happy belated Easter everybody!

Time warp..
It's good Friday, a public holiday... damn it's early... But damn I'm late! 7:15! We all have to be at church at 8:00 am for the prayer meeting! Now 8:30 am is hard nuff on at Burwood on a Sunday morning let alone 8:00am at Baulkam Hills on a Friday public holiday! Oh man I had a hard training session last night so went to bed as smashed as a plate at a greek wedding and would really appreciate the sleep. Anyways I said I'd be there so be there I shall... Damn gotta not be late, it takes 45 minutes to get there usually so that means I have 0 minutes to get ready! So on go the pants, in goes the toothbrush... A quick good morning to mum as I run out to start old faithful... No way am I gonna make it... Oh well, let's just try... Hahahaha... It's double demerits, I'm not silly enough to speed on these main streets... So here's there driving technique for the day... PUNCH it until u hit the speede limit hahaha... Well, I can tell u it works... I get to church at 7:54... Took me 25 minutes... that's a PB ladies and gentlemen hahaha

Anyways... Working back at the video store now... That's right I mentioned it in my last post... Been training with the gang on their Australia's got talent show... Man they work hard... Inspiring... So that's my weekend... but then check this out...

A few crazies are crazy enough to organise a run for Sunday night (double demerits btw)... so we all meet up late Sunday night, this whole time I'm under the impression we're heading out into the boonies for the runs, but lo and behold, we're going to old pacific highway... Hot damn, why not call the police in advance and ask em 2 bring the salad for the party? Anyways, I decide to go, there's a fair few of us... Too many actually... about 15-20 cars meet at the meet point... Mainly hard parkers... So the first group take off... we wanna run... not park... We arrive before the start point and chill for a minute, there's about 8 of us... A few middle easterners see our meet and come to check us out in their 4 door GTST... Realise we're waiting for sumone so they rip a few heli's on their way out hahaha... Real classy boys (sarcasm much)... So we take off for the touge... was a pretty epic run, seems that rwd silvia's do better on the touge than awd rexies and evo's?! So I find I'm stuck behind the awd's at a crawl, we clear the first stage and I'm called to be in second place, and punch off again, during second stage, we come across a T intersection and what else do we see but the boys in blue... Nice... So the guy in front of me sprints out into the hills... and I'm following close behind... This was the fun part hhaha, we actually had something to run away from... Pity we can't keep going to do 3rd and 4th stages, we just pull back onto the freeway and head off to Sevo's for some demo'ing at an estate. So you'd think that was a pretty close encounter hahaha, not close enough... I notice around Baulkham Hills, the car behind me is flashing me like mad, I have no idea what he wants, the car in front of me is acting strange to, he signals to turn into a back street, and doesn't commit... Eventually he does so I follow him, the car that's been flashing keeps driving off on the main road and another car turns in behind us and we end up splitting up, then I look to see who it is and notice the disco lights flare up hahahaha... Oh dang... I pull over and he stops behind me, the car in front turns the next left and get's away... Then... what is this? The copper pulls out and goes after him?! Man I punch it outta there QUICK SMART... a left here, right there, another right, a couple lefts, and I'm in someones yard, I shut my car down and lay low for a while. You'd think I'd go hoome after this, but no I think we were thirsting for trouble that night... I end up meeting the guys again at Sevo's, we hang for a bit, too nervous to do demo's... The dude that got chased got defected, he's pretty shattered, but ok... We all go home...

Now on twitter

I think I find it hard 2 blog coz I live faster than I type... So I'm gonna try twitter for the inbetweens... Quite a bit has happened but I don't think I'll go into details unless I "feel" like it... The cruise on Saturday was epic fail... Good thing I left after the meet n greet. I think I would have unleashed fury on one of the people that were there... Honestly, it's been a long time since I've come across a really bitter easily hate-able person... And just when you think there's a friend that you can be semi-lax with, they jump on a bandwagon and hurt you... Argh, the complexities of unsaved lives... Christians don't have it better, they just have their values stored up somewhere kickass...

Been helping out the TKD team in getting a performance together for Australia's Got Talent final... Although we didn't make it as contestants, we were called in to be entertainment... This is gonna kick butt...

Hello to Passion City Church!

Today's marks the day where for the first time I left a comment on someone's blog! It was Louie Giglio's blog from Passion City Church... Who heads the Passion Conferences which spread world wide... My comment reads as follows

Good day Louie. My name is Phillips, yes that's right, with an S, I last saw you in 2008 on the final leg of your Passion Conference in the Sydney Entertainment Centre.... My friend recently sent me a link to a youtube video which shows your presentation on laminin. Wow, it really took my breath away, that amongst the smallest building blocks which form our bodies, lies the cross of Jesus Christ our Lord... I then remembered your presentation 'Indescribable' at Hillsong conference in 2006 I believe it was, and remembered that more than 20 million light years away, lies the Whirlpool Galaxy M51a, again breathtaking, to think that beyond the farthest reach of human will, lies the the cross of Jesus Christ our Lord, radiant, brilliant. Jesus really is everywhere! Beyond what we can naturally see, larger than we can imagine! But He is also everything we're made of, everything we need.

I also had a question! It's quite silly but my friend Sarah now writes on her emails, LOTI (laughing on the inside) instead of LOL (laughing out loud), after explaining that she learned that from you at Passion Conference Sydney (You're name is coming up alot here in my world!) I asked if the line "kick butt" (apologies if it's vulgar) can be considered a lie? My argument was as follows

"Hahaha I just realised Kick butt is a lie too... When we say something
kicks butt 99.98% of the time, it doesn't actually kick anyone's butt
(that statistic may be a lie, but I think it's quite accurate)"

It was out of light hearted humour of course but she dared me to ask you, I couldn't find your email so here I am on your blog!

Oh did you know that people nowadays actually verbally say LOL? I think in an American accent, it'd be pronounced 'lawl'.

But I think that's enough from me... Thank you so much for the impact you're leaving around the world! Thank you for preaching the Gospel without withholding! Thank you Passion City Church! I look forward to seeing you again!

Love Phillips and the Hillsong Burwood Extension Service Gang

I guess that does most of the explanation! Thus why I posted it... Don't you think Louie looks a bit like Richard Gere? That's what I've always thought anyways hahaha...



This here is the video to Laminin. It got passed to me by Danny "Sarge" Chau... I only watched it today before I blogged to Louie, coincidence or not that the molecule holding every living animals body together is shaped liek the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, I think it's still a really interesting video.











And these 5 videos are from Louie's presentation "Indescribable"... It's like a full sermon, well worth watching... I remember the atmosphere at the Acer Arena that night... It was so majestic... Eveyone was holding their breath... You could hear a needle drop amongst the thousands of people...

Handbrake drift + carpark spot + old lady = jerk + apology

Man that was an EPIC handbrakie into a carpark spot! I regret I didn't take any pics since I was late and excited haha.

I'm up earlier than usual, meticulously executing my morning tasks, closing every task with a hairwidths amount of buffer, I'm not gonna be late to work today... Except there's one MAJOR impediment in my planned path of execution... I need fuel... So I brush my teeth in my shorter than usual morning shower, skip my shave and miss my breakfast, every second counts... I not gonna be late to work today... I have training after work, so I bundle my uniform, water and workbag in a fell swoop through my room, finishing with a cartwheel over my steering wheel and car keys, adding them to my inventory... I'm not gonna be late for work today... I sprint to my car, crispy cool from the morning dew, and spark up her ignition, I return to lock down the house as she idles out her slumber... I'm not gonna be late for work today... Then we trot to the local Shell servo... IMPEDIMENT... It's Wednesday, cheap fuel so there's a massive queue... I look at my phone... 7:33... 7:34... 7:35... 7:36... 7:37... 7:38... Funny how it seems whichever queue I join when I'm in a rush, I seem to choose the slowest one... Finally I get a bowser, Fill her up with some V, then we are off, 7:44 as we punch down the main road, like a footy player faking a pass then dodging a tackle, we sprint and ballet throught the overtoning drone of road cars doing 2,000 RPM and 70km/h, autopiloting towards another day's productivity... My car sings and squeals, sneezing at the height of every high note and on the challenge of every fat arsed moving roadblock... We skip, dance and charge towards our destination, and we finally arrive... 8:00, not much time left... It's dense here, All the spots near the station are filled, I'll have to try the strip that latecomers frequent... As I pull in, it's filled with little metro cars zipping around in 7 point turns collapsing into a spot on the common side of the road... I really don't wanna be late to work... So I thang it up the street... What do I see? A spot? It is! BUT! Oncoming cars! No! It's mine! I rev her up and she sings a note most praiseworthy! I Jerk the steering wheel to starboard bringing her nose in, oncomers are baffled! "What is he doing?!"... "He's gonna crash into the gutter!"... Alas! jumping off the gas she squeals out at pitch that'll shatter diamonds!

...

...

Bullet time... The eerily familiar... The zone in which one makes or breaks... The sound of strapping wind now but a condescending drone... The faces of the oncoming... unchanging, fixed on confused...

Like a wise blind man familiarly reaching for his walking stick, my left hand cuddles the ebrake shaft...

blink...

like a gas fed rifle, cocking into the firing position, my left leg linearly disengages the clutch...

heartbeat...

the ebrake get's called into action with the heart of a zealot.

SCRAWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!

+ an unexpected squeal

As eerily as bullet time crept up, it reciprocally snaps as way... The car pivots around it's front 2 wheels, smoke pluming into my window, I even get a bit of road debris in my eye, then silence as the car is now parked, and idling... Fat and happy, smiling and sly, I disengage the steering wheel, remove the key and grab my inventory... Happy she idles away as I walk off, passerby's and motorists gobsmacked with jaws dropping down to their laps... I skip to the station... Fat... Happy...

I get to the stairs and have an old lady turn around and look me in the eye... She reminds me of Mrs. Horvath, a primary substitute teacher that used to torture us by spending hours on end doing spelling exercises...

"Was that absolutely necessary?"

Oh... I see, she must've been the 'unexpected squeal'... What do I say to her?

"Yes ma'am my brakes are boken so that's how I get around"

Smug bastard

"Well get it fixed you... You... JERK"

And I skip away onto the platform... I made it! with a few minutes to spare! Victory!

But what is this? This nagging voice in my head... Well as I'm writing this I realise, that my response was a bit uncalled for... Really I should have apologised and told the lady the truth... perhaps something more like "I'm sorry ma'am I'm really late and sorry to have frightened you, but I've done courses which teach me how to park like this... I really apologise, I feel really bad for frightening you" would have been a bit more appropriate and truthful. Well let's just say this then... If I ever see her again, how about I apologise to her for my conduct today? There's a deal... I may be parking there again soon, should I come across this old lady... I shall apologise for my smug response today, and for frightening her.

But gosh that was cool...

Early bird catches the worm

For the first time in what seems like a month I came into work on time today! 8:28am and I was at the front reception! Check out the scene that I came across when leaving my house, this was taken just outside my granny flat, obviously belonging to my brother, I have no idea what time he came home last night or what he was up to, but let's say there was a torrent of beer in the fridge this morning -_-"


I walked out the gate thinking "Oh sweet! Motorkhana!" then I realised that it's something that my bro got up to during drunken randomness.

Anyways, I'm such a klutz! I left my car keys at work yesterday! I was on the train to Nth Strathfield and was looking forward to training then realised "Oh no I forgot to ask Brian if I could have his shin + instep guards" then in some form common acknowledgment, my thoughts became "Phil you don't have your keys" and fair enough, I checked my bag and there were no keys to be found. I was really hoping that I'd left them at work coz I have no idea where the spares have gone! Well to tell you the truth, the keys that I had just lost WERE the spare keys! Yes, yes I'm bad. Well at least the good news is, I found my keys at my desk today, I hope my car is still there! But that's ok, there's not much you can do with a car that is without a steering wheel *grins*

Hahaha I got two songs stuck in my head today! One is thanks to Laura and Khang, and their ADDICTION to Ouran High School Host Club... The song is... "Sakura Kiss"

"KISS KISS FALL IN LOVE" !!!



Hahaha I haven't seen the anime yet but isn't this song just the darndest?! I have to finish Fruits Basket so I can move on to watch this, I just finished book 8, Laura! Jeanette! I need the next 3 please! I love how the manga has the author's musings and outtakes, I think I secretly draw blogging inspiration from them! Muahahahaha

Oh and the second song is from Morning Musume - Furusato, that's because Khang sent me a clip from Hello Project hour and Natsumi Abe starts singing this song out to Erika Umeda's drumming, here's a clip of the song...



Oorah it's Friday! That means youth is on tonight! I should be getting the video of the motorkhana from David so I will post them up soon.
