Final Bout is the personification of an idea most grassroots drivers have known and loved for years. If you’ve ever watched a DoriTen video, flipped through the magazine, spent hours on YouTube watching grainy, lower-than-VHS-quality videos of your favorite drift heros, then you will understand Final Bout.
Final Bout is a two-day team tandem contest taking place at USA International Raceway in Shawano, WI. This will not be the run-of-the-mill team tandem competition based solely on driver’s ability, but in fact a competition judged by team unification. 50% of each team’s score will be based on a car show - judging the cars presented as a team. Teams will be judged on unity and style, based on team colors, livery, car style, and general car presentation. The remaining 50% of the team score will be based on team runs and tandem skill. *
We have some great judges coming out from Japan and the US, and we will make a full length DoriTen style DVD showcasing the event and all of the teams participating. Some of the best teams from all over North America are coming to battle it out at USA International Raceway.
USAIR is one of the most unique tracks in the US. For the drivers that haven’t experienced the track, prepare to be challenged with its back-to-back-to-back elevation changes, blind corners and constant variety of driver inputs. The facility will be split up into two large courses and both tracks will run simultaneously to ensure that everyone who makes the trip to USAIR goes home with whiplash, an ear-to-ear grin and no tires left to spare.
The event kicks off on Saturday morning and will consist of the car show portion of the competition. Immediately following the car show, team tandem practices will begin. By midday we will begin the team tandem competition. Upon completion of the judged runs, teams can continue driving on our secondary open course. By early Sunday, team judged runs will be completed. *After the competition we will have open runs for the rest of the day into early evening on both tracks for everyone to enjoy. Bring them tires!!!!
