Arklatex Drift Day (A.D.D.) July 14th 2012

[SLEEPYDUB]

On Saturday July 14th we will be holding another drift day at Thunder Road Raceway Park. The reason for it being on Saturday is that we will be allowed to use the entire lot. This means faster entry speeds, more intricate course designs, and wider lanes.

ENTRY FEE:
Drivers $25
$10 per spectator (I'm sure we'll have fliers for spectators as the event date gets closer)

EVENT SCHEDULE:
Gates Open at 5pm
Drivers meeting and course walkthrough at 6:45pm.
Drifting starts at 7pm
Driving for everyone until 12pm

I need all drifters to be at the drivers meeting on time so I can give everyone the run down. Flags will be used so I need all drivers to know what they mean.

SAFETY/TECH INSPECTION (for drifting only!!):

-Must have a minimum of a DOT approved helmet, for drivers and passengers. Motorcycle helmets are acceptable. (I don't want anyone thinking a barbie bicycle helmet will pass inspection). THIS DOESN'T HAVE TO BE ANYTHING FANCY.

-Must have working seat belts (and they must be worn!!!!)

-Batteries must be secured

-Drivers seat must be secured as well as any seat a passenger will be riding in

-No constant fluid leaks

-All wheel studs and lug nuts need to be installed and secured

-ABSOLUTELY NO DRIFTING OUTSIDE OF THE DRIFT COURSE

-No hands outside of windows

-Important not to drive past your limits. We want you to push yourself and improve, but within your abilities. If we set up a third gear course it doesn't mean you have to enter in third gear. Our staffers are there to help everyone improve so just take your time and ask for tips whenever needed.

-If you spin out and knock down a wall of cones, simply exit course and allow time for everyone to go out and reset the section. No big deal. But please don't proceed to knock down even more cones lol.
