| Winter season |
| Sunday, January 11, 2009 |
 Winter break was a mix of good times, with Christmas celebration at Yosemite and New Year's eve celebrated with good friends in San Diego. We did not go to Sweden like we did last year, have done too many flights to Europe in 2008 already and more are coming up fairly soon so it was nice to just stay and charge batteries in CA.
Still got to play in the snow, thanks to my Danish buddy Danny who invited us to come party with a bunch of friends in Big Bear, where we hit the slopes in perfect conditions, ice cold well prepared snow and the sun beaming down on us.
 Jen impressed with great skills on skis and we'll have a lot of fun on our upcoming trip to Mammoth, also with a good party crew from San Diego.
 Winter break also consisted of finishing up the Nurburgring video (see previous post) and getting into the sponsorship details for the upcoming racing season, both for racing and drifting. The Formula Drift car is ready and pre-season practice will start soon, stay tuned for videos! //CarlLabels: Misc |
