Well, that is not going to happen. I won’t cut her up to instal a roll cage.

Let me know if you need a crew in the pits though, I would be more than happy to help you with that.

You’ve seen me beat the snot out of her at the track, so you know I do and I will continue to do so.

It’s not the beatings, just the; drilling holes or welding, pain in the butt to get in and out (legs), heat score factor, etc…

Although it would increase the structural integrity of the car, I just couldn’t do that to her. Maybe if I get an s13 that might happen.

that is where alot of the rules for lesser leagues will come from and rightly so.

if it is going to take off at all in Ontario it has to become alot safer and more serious whihc means heavy safety regulations.

that is in the best interest of everyone anyways.

and making it expensive to meet them will keep out alot of younger people who probably shouldnt be doing it anyways.

having been to drift mania i am really surprised that some people were allowed to be on the track. i am certainly not that good and alot of people were alot worse than i, that makes for one really friggin dangerous event,

Good points Bing, but it is getting rid of the fun factor too soon. It seems to me they are going to kill some of the good old grassroots factor. Obviously QC already has drifting established, but for Joe Schmo who was drifting for the fun of it, he’s now going to have to build a purpose track car because cages are illegal on the road. What does that also mean? He will need a trailer, and a truck to tow it with. More money that he may not have. Not everyone who can’t afford it doesn’t deserve not to be a part of it.

I, for one, have no career right now, and am sliding because of how accessible and fun it is. It should be a sport that just about anyone can do. I love to see how it has exploded, but to turn it into the next Nascar would suck. If we can keep it like things seem to be in the States, we can keep it alive. We’ve got to start off with little events, a la DG Trials or Drift Days before stepping up to Formula D standards.

Just ask if you need some explanation, I kinda just spewed that all out without thinking…
