i went to the march 3rd HTM event with 626....i saw some with roll cages, but not all. and when i say some, i mean less than a 1/3.

[Suk02Si]

I didn't have my cage in when I went to HTM back in Jan. I want to do this event if I finish my car by then, we'll see.

[yusuke1923]

hey what do those rich boys do? What career they do? lol!

[Sliders562]

interesting let me ponder about it ^_^

[k's_silvia2.0]

I say no cages Jon. I mean you just have to drive within your means.

[Sliders562]

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[Sliders562]

awesome got some drivers coming in awesome. if its grip u can have all the laps you want. its like a all u can drive grip buffet lol

[speed_racerx]

oh man.. cant wait to get on htm.

[ericcastro]

we dont run cages at 626. no reason. just dont try and drift the water tower, (they frown on it anyways now days).

If you have a convertable, then probably a cage.

Oh good. If you're going to be at Pipeline this week then I can probably just pay you off for the rest of my entry and Travis can pay you for the rest of his. Whats the update on the grip spots? I'm trying to find a few more bodies and cars to fill those spots.

i think its you, u came over to my old apt; via coupe with no windshield wiper and i ask u how u drive like that during rain ; right? or am i thinking different person?

Hello yes ,that would be me. Still doin it. Anyhow I got your PM about cages, I have just been very busy. Glad to see it a full day run,half a day isnt too economical. As far as sponsors/instructors go PM me some details, Im interested in hosting/help host GRIP events at HTM.

I should be able to go to this,but its a lil far out to say anything definate(almost 2 months out). PM me lets chat. L8

[ericcastro]

So is this gonna be a drift/grip event like the 626DRIFT guys run???

If its grip, you sure as shit better not put bikes on the track at the same time as cars!!

your drivers dont seem worried about thier ability on the track.

626 did thier first event there as a drift. ya just attack the corners as a, single, 180 degree drift. Then as you get it down, you try and connect em.
HTm is REALLY easy.

And what are all these "cliffs" you keep talking about flying off of??

[UNITEDMASTER]

^^^^^ If your going clockwise, the uphill sweeper is the part where you can go off the hill.

[ericcastro]

^ the first one??? The second uphill sweeper is where to start, the first 2 single corners are a waste of tires and gas. IMO
they are good your first couple runs to get the feel, but save that rubber for the 2nd corner on the top.

Here is a little video of my SOHC. And I drifted the bottom corner just cause I was filming. Top corner is a 3rd gear entry with ebrak, to 2nd gear downshift, clutch lock, the feather it around. Flick the car back and floor 2nd, when its about to catch again, ebrake and hold it, and hold it, and hold it, and floor it!

the spin out is right after a 3rd gear upshift with to much angle.

[Sliders562]

we will seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee weeeeeeee weeeeeeeeeeee

[Sliders562]

****sorry guys but this event will be a Grip event, and a teaser of drift hour special****

got a bunch of emails rolling in from other forums, so expect diversity of cars coming to grip. hoping to pick up sponsors for grip. all i can say is hope for the best and lets put this up to the test.


7 spots left, its going to disappear soon and be full ^__^ thanx for everyone helping out and breachin other forums

[Oilcover]

yeaaahhh heres me at HTM...

[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTtoXMn7EZE[/ame]

just drift that section and pace the rest of the course. non-caged cars will be fine...watertower has always been PROHIBITED aka instant blackflag kickout with no cage, and WITH cage if you have passengers.

i wanna drift!!

[Sliders562]

we'll see the outcome of the end of the month and i'll keep the update about it, but in the mere future there will be also a touke drift on htm full day ^_^

just gotta prep us drivers ready for the loads of fun ^_^
