Fresno Tanso w/Garret Turbo video!- July 7th 2012

1introIn the heart of every small town, there are always enthusiasts which crave for the opportunity to unleash agony upon the asphalt. To feed the appetites of the teeming drivers; a distinguished group, Tanso, was able to piece together one the greatest grassroots drift events the central valley has ever experienced. The event was complete with many seasoned and amateur drivers. Just $55 dollars in advance granted drivers 13 hours of seat time and tandems.

It also shows that we care about all types of racers, from weekend grassroots racers to pro level”.
