Toshiki Yoshioka taking his Subaru BRZ making slight contact with  the wall with Justin Pawlak and his Ford Mustang close by.  If you look closely you the banner that Toshiki rips off the wall is a Ford banner...coincidence? :)

Matt Field makes some pretty hard contact with the wall in his Nissan 240SX, bumper flying contact.  Robbie Nishida in his Lexus SC300 escapes unharmed in the incident.

Matt Fields car after contact with the wall, its not pretty but he lines up for the next run.  Unfortunately mechanical trouble puts his Nissan 240SX out for the day.

What?!! Fredric Aasbo is sporting the "Hella Flush" look?  No, fear not, after a little contact with Chris Forsberg he broke a suspension component.  His team fixed the car and he finished 3rd for the day.
