What happens if we don’t want to be taught by these instructors? Can it just be an open practice day? If it is, are the more advanced drivers going to have to be on the track at the same time as the guys learning?

Btw, who will be these instructors?

the instructing is happening on the skidpad, or some open part of shannonville.

so the track is open to be used for all day drifting.

for clarification, i trust that drivers who have competed, qualified or even won the CSCS series in year’s past will not have to be at this event in order to compete in CSCS this year right?

i also know some US guys that were thinking of competing this year that will not be willing to travel to shannonville to pre-qualify.

and obviously i cannot make it and i am intending to enter the series as well.
