Behind the Smoke Ep 19: Seattle Battles - Dai Yoshihara Formula Drift 2011 Season

The Discount Tire/Falken Tire S13 is fixed and Dai is leady to lock in Seattle! He is second in the rankings so this event will be key to get one step closer to top ranking Justin Pawlak. His first top 32 battle is against Jeff Jones. But wait, JTP has car issues and suddenly a unexpected opportunity unfolds in front of Dai! Can he capitalize? Behind the Smoke gives a look into the real life of professional Formula Drift driver, Daijiro Yoshihara. GTChannel's cameras will follow Dai throughout the 2011 FD season both on and off the track giving current and new drifting fans an exclusive look into what it's really like to compete in the top drifting series of N.America. Behind the Smoke is produced by GTChannel in association with Discount Tire/America's Tire and supported by Falken Tire and GoPro.

I donated for stickers like two months ago and haven't gotten it in :[ my car wants them bad.

[GTchannel]

@fooglez Are you talking about Dai's charity stickers? If so you have to go to rfjp.org and click on "contact". They have lots of inquiries so maybe they are just behind. Just contact them and you will be taken care of.
