Tech will be at 9:00am, and we'll probably shut down at 4:00.

Two courses = tons of run time. Most people don't have the tires to run any longer.

Cant wait its going to be alot of fun!!!

zackt69 · 12-27-2006, 02:52 PM

Hey Brian, I sent a couple emails and haven't heard back - I was wondering if people can come watch? Also should I get a confirmation for registering and paying? Haven't received anything yet.

Thanks - can't wait!

Uisce · 12-28-2006, 10:45 AM

Hey Zack, sorry about that. I thought I replied to you. It isn't really a "spectator" event, but if a few people want to come hang out and watch that's fine.

We did get your registration. You're all set. I'll be sending an email tonight to those who are registered.

zackt69 · 12-28-2006, 04:32 PM

As long as there is no chance that your battery will flop around and hit your hood and start a fire. Just make sure that the thing isn't going to move, and please don't use zip-ties.

If you've never drifted a car with a fire billowing out from under the hood, let me tell you, it isn't fun.

As your brake pedal drops to the floor because your reservoir has melted and no you have no brake pressure, you start to wish you had known the car was on fire BEFORE you made that 65mph inititation.

Makes for a funny story, but it sure as hell wasn't funny at the time.

Just make sure your car is safe, and we'll be cool.

EchoOfSilence · 12-30-2006, 10:27 PM

I showed up as a spectator for some odd ass reason.

everyone had TONS of track time, everyone got better as time progressed, and no1 really broke anything, with the exception of an FC that was burning coolant.

irax · 12-30-2006, 10:40 PM

94cc0rd · 12-31-2006, 01:18 AM

Jay Dee M · 12-31-2006, 03:23 AM

I had a great time. I'll be going to next one for sure.

akuma s14 · 12-31-2006, 05:41 PM

thanks to every one that took the time to come and spend a saturday at the "Buffet". All the drivers were great, and we were all stoked to seem the improvement in everyones driving by the end of the day. We tried to present a drift event that you could get enough seat time for the money and also have the ability to see some pro's run in the same run group as everybody else! ( lol, pro's are people too).

Thanks again
Terry
