Drift & Tuning Day Vol.2 @ OuluZone - 22nd of September - Oulu, Finland

Here's few photos I took at the second edition of Drift & Tuning Day last September. Event was free to attend just like last year. Despite the weather being a bit challenging quite a lot of people came to visit the it. Schedule included drifting demonstrations and a playful competition. Drifters also gave rides for visitors for a small amount of money. In the nearby the parking lot was a Tuning car show. I will upload video clips to my Instagram account later.

Radalle.com Drifting Finals @ Kemora - 15th of September 2018 - Veteli, Finland

This year the final round of Finnish Drifting Championship was held at the Kemora motor circuit in Veteli. This time the weather wasn't the greatest and it kept raining the whole day. Day started around 9 am with practice and continued to qualifying where Mika Keski-Korpi got the most points. Henri HaanpÀÀ came second and Lauri Heinonen was third.

Juha PöytĂ€laakso battled through to the final from the left side of the bracket and faced Lauri Heinonen who took out Henri HaanpÀÀ. Henri met Jonathan Hast in the bronze final. Here's few clips from the competition (#1 & #2).

There was also a car show held at the start of the pit area. There were a lot of nice cars such as a grey Nissan Skyline R33 and a yellow MK4 Toyota Supra to name a few. Below you can find photos from the pit are and car show. Take a look 😎

Venetsia Drifting 2018 - 25th of August - Kokkola, Finland

Venetsia Drifting is an annual drifting competition held in the city centre of Kokkola, Finland. Track is a street circuit closed off from public traffic. Around 40 drivers with different levels of experience participated to this year's competition.

Day started with free practice and continued with qualification which determined who went to battle who in the bracket. Each driver had two attempts which were scored. Actual competition began shortly after qualification. Two drivers competed against each other driving in tandem. Both drivers had to lead and follow. Driver with a better score continued to the next round. Power2Drift Team Finland's Juha Pöytalaakso ended up taking the first place. Henri HaanpÀÀ from HaanpÀÀ Motorsport was second and Juha Rintanen of Juha Rintanen Motorsport was third.

Unfortunately I didn't get to see to whole competition since my train left a bit earlier than it finished. Curbs were packed with visitors and it was nice to see a lot of people attending the event. Only downside was that there weren't any grandstands near the track and it was a bit hard to see what happened there if you didn't have a good viewing spot.

I uploaded few clips (#1 & #2) to my Instagram account. Please check them out as well 😎

Here's a throwback to EPUA Drifting event held in Lapua at the end of May. One day event gathered a lot of people to watch drifting at the Ala-Talkkari Areena. Event was not part of the Finnish championships but many of the pro drivers from that series participated to it. You can find few video clips (#1 & #2) from my Instagram account. Next Saturday I will be traveling to Kokkola and visiting Venetsia Drifting and cover that event later so stay tuned for that 😊
