MTV Iggy Special Feature: Car Culture


<p>Stepping into the world of import tuners and performance mods can be intimidating and awkward for most women. You’re surrounded by boys and their toys… what if they don’t want to share? Back in 2006, Sarah Taylor and Margo Romanowski met at the first ever NESIC (New England Subaru Impreza Club) “Girlie Meet” and bonded over their mutual interest in cars.

<p>Is drifting "the most fun you can have in a car"? That's how Terrance Jenkins, Competition Director for D1 Grand Prix USA describes it, and after watching the cars glide and slide through turns in a cloud of dust of burning rubber, you're going to see why. We spent a day in Englishtown, NJ, catching the scene at the final round of the D1 Grand Prix 2009 Professional Drift. As competitors from Finland, Japan, and the USA wowed the crowd, we talked to event host Ernie Menensala, drift racer Miro Ovcharik, and got advice for newcomers from Forest Wang, the Hawaiian newcomer who blew away more experienced hands in round 1. His advice? "Drive! Drive! Get any kind of tires as you can and burn 'm! If you don't drive, you're not going to get any better!" We also caught a glimpse of superstar drifter Daigo Saito, the 2008 champion out to score back-to-back victories.</p><p><a href=http://www.mtviggy.com/car-culture>Return to MTV Iggy Special Feature: Car Culture</a></p>
