Equipped with a 20v blacktop 4AGE – Kelvin qualified for top 16 during the single runs and had to face the Batlground S14, then a boosted IS300 to qualify for Top 4. After moving on, Kelvin was able to take 3rd place against the Drift Emporium G35 (supercharged V8). He was later knocked out by George in the red s13, who took 2nd place.

It was the classic David vs Goliath theme. You have to give it up for all the drivers. It’s not easier following an AE86’s slower line when you have to control a car with way more horsepower. Congrats to all the drivers. Congratulations Kelvin!! I’m so proud you, dude!

Take note: There was a no passing rule in effect. Hitting cones and straightening out counted against the drivers. Spinning out, even if it was at the very end, counted heavily against final scores.
