«OFFICIAL» Drift Mania Toronto! August 15th & 16th 2009! *UPDATED*

HAHA. Anyway so the Marriott is like 118 US doll-hair’s a night which isnt too bad split a few ways.

just to clarify… the BING’s Lounge is a booth for me to promote my wares, not a ‘hang out’… you guys are welcome, but dont make me out to be an asshole as i have often had to be in the past with like 23 dudes sitting around when i’m trying to put food sur le tableau…

You can add me to the list I will be down with The Mitsu Ralliart . Is there any extra space to share a room or I will even chip in for gas becouse really not in the mood for driving up there. Unless some else wants to drive my car up there? and trade for a spot on the hotel floor.

Yeah I am down for this meet is there a place we will all meet up at and drive down or just meet in Toronto. Also need a place to stay will take the bathtub at this point or even car pool and share gas , Let me know please.

Any time or location of meeting up yet in buffalo where we can all drive out together, If there was any plan to do so

I don’t anyone is driving up as a group man. I think most of us are just going to find eachother sometime at the event since no one is putting their cars in the show.

I’m leaving Buffalo at like 5am to pickup setup supplies / parts, pick Bing up at the Airport, etc. Going to be a crazy day…

FYI Josh, Aaron and I are bringing “one more” - our friend Pat (who had that silver boxster S who came to dunnville once with us) is going to be flying into town from KC.

Would you guys like any extra help with setting up. I just dont want to be wondering alone by my self with my camera looking like a bigger loser than I already am.

Also does anyone have a place on their hotel floor I could rent. I am not sure if I plan to sleep at all because I am going downtown for some fun that night maybe , but could use a place to wash up.

You already admitted to owning a Lancer…

Josh isn’t staying in Toronto and I’m not sharing my room (as the people listed and I are staying together). You’re going to need to book your own room (loser) if you want to go to the event.

Hey its a Lancer Ralliart, If the Mitsu folks would of put a proper boot with a pass thru in the EVO I would be driving the MR

I scored a Hotel pretty close to the track if anyone is intrested in staying the night over and needs a place to crash text me 716-816-9698

Was a great time till I got suckered punched on the last day , Bing awsome display and couches.To the guy who drove the white Lotus and just parked it in the middle of the lot sorry I missed you. I am posting all of the action and will have alink in my Flicker account very soon.


Closest I got to the wall on entry all day, that was about 1’6", most of the other runs were 3-5ft.

Nice Aaron :tup:

This was a lot of fun. Sorry I never made it over to Bings area… was too busy either crewing/spotting for Mike day 1, and day 2 I never left the spectator stands because it was too much fun to watch.

My biggest congrats to Mike for his third place finish :slight_smile:

On board of my 3rd place qualifying run. Car needs more power and steering angle :frowning: Sadly not as easy of a proposition as in a 240sx.
