are there gonna be any a little closer to so.cal? thunder hill is way too far for us southerners.

s13chica · 12-02-2003, 08:49 PM

WOW...this looks like it could be really cool. 80 is kinda a lot of people...but it could still be fine.

Uh... I think the whole point of the NCDA is to host drift events closer to NorCal so we don't have to drive so far. There are already plenty of events down south.

80 cars will be divided in 6 groups each grip group or drift group will drive on either west or east section of Thunderhill. East section is apprx. 2 mi. and West is at least 1.5 mi. Drift guys will do a flagged start so you figure there is only 15-20cars on the track at a time for a 30 min. session so it will not be crowed.

SilviaNinja240 · 12-03-2003, 12:50 AM

yeees, finally! awsome news, I might sign up

. But is there any hidden fees? for ambulance? tires? gas? dot helmet? etc, etc?

EDIT: almost forgot to ask, but how long is the event? all day? 9 to 5? or do we only get 30min of track time total?

Krazy Bunta · 12-03-2003, 01:08 AM

This is an ALL DAY event.

All fees are covered in your entry, you will be responsible for your own tires and helmet.

Please check www.ncda.net often for updates. A schedule will be posted shortly.

Some people just have no idea....

Im signing up also. Just to support the event.

knghtryde · 12-03-2003, 02:42 PM

Just one question. Are spectators going to be allowed. My cousins want to ride up there with me to watch the event. Is that okay, or is there no spectators allowed.

I'm gonna try to be there, sounds like fun. Hopefully I can talk my brother on going too.

Jonathan, David, are you guys planing on going to this one, if so we can had out from my house. Caravan from San Jose.

Is anyone else going from that San Jose area that wants to Caravan, let me know. Yeah I know it's a bit early but better to plan it out early than late.

Krazy Bunta · 12-03-2003, 04:41 PM

Spectators are allowed and encouraged to attend, please encourage anyone with even the slightest interest to come and see what this growing motorsports venue is all about.

dvdevo · 12-03-2003, 06:17 PM

David: I might go, just gotta see can i gather enough money for the fee, and helmet and extra tires.

btw Helmet is required right?

nokeone · 12-03-2003, 06:51 PM

helmet = S.O.P.

dvdevo · 12-03-2003, 07:46 PM

ootranceformeroo · 12-03-2003, 11:58 PM

haha cool! scott will be there too once he gets his 5 lug done. DAMMIT I WANT TO SEE THOSE WHEELS!.....oh yeah you need tires.

Hey Noah. Did you get the same rims as scott?

knghtryde · 12-04-2003, 09:22 AM

Jonathan,

Go ahead and keep those rims you got from my house. Learn to drift on those. It will be harder cause the traction is better but those tires are cheaper to replace than those 17s. Just throw those on the back and learn on them when you go out there. I have plenty of spear tires any ways. I have about 4 or 5 sets of 4 lugs.

Anyone have a Pair of 5 lug rims they wanna part with. My bro has a 5 lug setup and needs spear wheels to enter into the events.
