Irwindale, CA (Py) - The final day of 2011 Formula Drift is a big day for fans and vendors.  During the break time periods, the crowd float through the expo aisles like school of sardine fish, all packed!

 Melanie Tillbrook (above) from Falken found a second to flash us a peace sign while signing her posters to a constant non-stop line of fans.  Alicia Labady for Nitto was a super network model that knows so many people at the show that she should be like the queen of foursquare here...

Arika Sato and Janel Hahn for Cooper Tires look so wonderful under the warm So-Cal sunset...

Celeste Staana for Exedy is always cool and sexy...

and dedicated...

Diana Grant is always so great to see, to chat with, and to photograph!

Elysha Lee, our featured model, (left) for Nexen was so busy with her duty that you can see her non-stop working with fans!

Jennifer Martinez made NOS look energetic!!

Lucas Oil model is looking tall and great!

We did not see Monster Energy booth, but the spokes model looks wonderful!

Natalie Bee for NOS is so happy to see us, and so are we!

This gorgeous Nitto model was very + very hard working, we can testify for that!

Sony has the eye-catching models in all shows, and this is no exception!

We did not get a chance to get the name of the model, because the vendor shushed us away... What a shame...  Oh well...

The umbrella has led lights on all spokes!  We bet the next would be on the rims...

Now continuing the "How cool it is to be a professional drift driver!"

They were actually very close to each other...

It's like light-saber is poking the other car...

Overall, this is a great round and lots of exciting actions inside the track.  More will come in the future coverage!  Wish we have more models at the expo like used to be...  Well, there will be future events, right? Let's keep our hopes up!! :-)

Great job Formula Drift team!  It's been a great year, and you have shown the fans and the industry how great the professional drifting can be!  Keep up the great work!!
