I just saw the whiteout FR-S! Looks like it's 6th.

Looks like the FR-S (#08) is being driven by Tony Rivera from Brass Monkey Racing. The commentators are joking it looks like he drove it off the showroom onto the track. No racing livery or anything like that, just a handful of sponsor stickers.

4th place finish in its first ever race!

DarkSunrise 08-01-2014 06:55 PM

Yep not bad all things considered!

Lonewolf 08-01-2014 06:55 PM

Caught a few shots of the mostly white FRS...finished 4th in TC...not bad

Next race is tomorrow!

Saturday, Aug 2
GT/GTA/GTS Race 1 - 11:45am

They didn't include him in on the on screen results?

Why the hate?

I know, I saw that too...perhaps there is a legit reason? The announcers mentioned it though...

That Compass 360 sponsored Honda Civic Si and those SkullCandy Altimas have years of Continental Tire ST and Pirelli World Challenge TC experience. For Tony Rivera to finish just off the podium in that race was a huge accomplishment. Scion USA and TRD need to take notice.

His car looked like it made a wrong turn in the parking lot and ended up on the track. I cannot wait to see it once they get some race livery on it.

Yeah they've been putting a lot of money into formula drift, but this car was made for track. Nice to see one in the ST class finally. I didn't get it here, but I'll be looking for it Aug. 10. :w00t:
