Well… I made it, didn’t get to drift, but I made it. It was cool to check it out though. My grand adventure through the vast tracts of Southern Ontario was just fantastic. Maybe I’ll post it up later if people care to hear.

A word of caution though, NEVER USE GOOGLE MAPS FOR DIRECTIONS! You’re better off asking a blind hobo in Peru how to get to the CN Tower.

MAD PROPS to Spo-Com, BirdDog, Shift Marketing & Kawartha Downs!  
3 hours of FREE drift action!

Great Event! Lots of New Faces!  
Good job to all the rookies for improving quickly on the donuts and figure 8’s!  
Props to all the crazy drifters carving up the oval!  
Kudos to Wayne for showing that you can carve up the banks with a KA and some big metal balls!

And to whoever has my 1/2 torque wrench… I want it back, Now!

Driftryder, sorry didn’t see you on the oval; I was down in the parking lot area most of time, helping out the drivers.

If you were tossing the car sides at the top of 3rd gear on the big banks, then good job \<clap\> \<clap\>

We just uploaded a bunch more pics with ontrack antics of driftryder, enyaw and the red hatch. It takes guts to tackle the banks. As well as the some of the carnage:

- blown tire on the FC
- delamed tread on the Kouki
- local hatch that exploded the bottom end…SR TIME!

Great turn out for the short notice over 30 cars some from as far away as K-W, Keswick and Sault St Marie WTF?

Next event is in June, turnout will be much bigger and we’ll have more track time as we will clear the main lot earlier.

See you next round.

O man, I’m so mad, looked like an awesome time, i live in Peterborough and i still couldn’t even make it. Stupid gf, should of just ditched her! she kinda made up for it though 😉  
Are these going to be on a semi regular basis at different tracks? the whole schedule thing on the website doesn’t work, not sure if its just me.
