The not so interesting background
GREAT NEWS!!
EverythingDrift.com is working closely with the casting director of Fast and Furious 3 (which we all know will be about drifting). They are looking to film a very large drift scene in November in the week after SEMA, and have started the process to find "extra" cars. Remember the street racing and racewars scenes in the first movies? All of those cars were cast in a similar way. ALL CARS USED IN THESE SCENES WILL BE PAID A SMALL APPEARANCE FEE FOR THEIR APPEARANCE.
This weekend, there will be a large casting call in the Los Angeles area. Basically, a bunch of cars (including yours) will show up, have its picture taken, some information taken down, and the planning will begin for the scene in November.
If you are interested in this, at any level, SHOW UP WITH YOUR CAR!!
Cars they are interested in:
240's
350's
AE86's
Supras (mk3 and mkIV)
RX7's
RX8's
IS300's
Skylines
G35's
other RWD driftable cars??
In addition, they are also looking for:
WRX's
Lancer Evo's
xB's
Top dollar will be paid for:
- RHD cars
- Those who are able to drift their cars as background footage
- "vanning" vehicles (those crazy vans setup for kareoke with pikachu-type spoilers and large bumpers. we've all seen pics on the internet, yes those things are real!)
If you have any of these cars, or have friends with any of these cars, BRING IT ON SUNDAY!! If you have a car which is not able to make it sunday, you can do one (or both) of two options...
1 - bring pictures and a description of your car to the event.
2 - email
georgeg@everythingdrift.com and CC
fastandfurious3cars@hotmail.com with 2 pictures of your car, a description of the mods, your name, a contact phone number, and the reason you can't make it there but WILL make it to the shoot in November (IE: out of town, car is in the shop, etc).
We ask that if anyone should ask how you heard about this, we would prefer if you mentioned our name. EVERYTHINGDRIFT IS NOT ASKING FOR ANY SORT OF 'FEE' TO BE CAST IN THIS MOVIE!. We want real drift cars in the scene, and we are in it for the love of drifting. Other companies / agencies WILL ask for a fee out of your pocket in order to cast you. There is no preference given by Universal to one casting group over another. In theory, they would rather use real drift cars rather than "Show" or "display" cars, so mentioning EverythingDrift.com may benefit you. But if you do not want to, that is fine as well.
PLEASE feel free to pass this information on to others (Friends, myspace buddies / bulletins, other message boards, etc). The emphasis is being placed on RWD cars, but some select JDM-styled cars may be cast.
PLEASE also leave the haterade / beef / etc at home. This will be a professional environment, with the opportunity for many of these cars to be cast in a major motion picture. This will be a fun, relaxing car meet, we don't need any problems.
Have fun, pass the word on, and we hope to see you there!

Now I got to think really hard about how RX-7s have this overheating problem again. 
Maybe its just the way they are?

Thanks!
