Chris Forsberg First Formula Drift Driver In Los Angeles Sportswalk of Fame

in #sportsphotography5 years ago (edited)

I didn't know that Los Angeles has a Sportswalk of Fame, but apparently it's been around for 40 years, honoring top athletes. On October 8th, Chris Forsberg joined their ranks in a ceremony in front of the Battleship Iowa at the LA port. Seen here October 12th, qualifying for the Formula Drift Season XV Final Fight at Irwindale Speedway, Chris was honored along with ten other athletes. He is the winningest Formula Drift driver, with three titles under his belt, and he comes to Irwindale fourth in points. Could this be win number four? You can read more about the ceremony here.
