Hey, just wanted to post this YouTube somebody got video of my husband doing one of his driving demo's for a motivation to the workers at the Blazer factory back east-- technically not supposed to get video out of the GM desert proving ground down here, but my husband is the one in the Blazer! He does stuff like this all the time, but I wanted to share! It's called Chevy Trailblazer SS and corvette ballet... Check it out!

My husband has actully been sponsored in a drifting competition;) and done amazing! He had a Japanese professional driver come over to his car and the other driver got mad because my husband hadn't done anything special to trick out his car to do stunts.:mad: It was all stock... right off the factory floor! The Japanese guy couldn't figure out how my husband could do it! I was so proud of him!! It all comes from sitting in the back of the car and pretending to drive backwards all those years as a kid!:rolleyes: And his mom said he wasn't being safe...
 
I just have one question....are the tires okay? They looked like they might be in a lot of pain. :) LOL
 
That was pretty cool, i even had to call my husband in here for that!
 
THAT would be my DH's dream job!

Stephanie this is cool!:thumbup: :cool: I am going to have to call my son down and have him watch it and when DH comes back home, he'll have to watch it too! My son is so into drifting... it's crazy! I told him that he is crazy if he thinks I'm letting him drive at 16, if he doesn't loose his major obsessed love for drifting and he better do it quick like too!!:rolleyes: You can just imagine how much he loved the last Fast and the Furious!!

Thanks for sharing!!;)
 
I'd love to take up drifting, too, but I'm too cheap to keep buying new tires.

Part of the sponsorship was just to pay for the tires! It is brutal! But yea, it is crazy he gets paid to do this stuff!

If you ever make it to Arizona, my husband will have to take him for a spin in a corvette at work. The whole place is enclosed and high security but he gets to take groups out there for driver training and take them on rides. I have many a nephew who worship DH. One of the things he does is teach collision avoidence and get people certificates for going through professional training. It would save you on insurance! He has great references. He actually teaches the instructors at police academies and fire departments all over the country-- I am most proud of his commendation from the SS here in Phoenix for his excepitonal service. So, your DS would be in good hands. Just a thought.
