ok to clear some things up…
1.) There is still going to be an open class, will we allow open diffs…probably, but I’m not guaranteeing anything. I wanted to throw it out there just in case.
2.) I understand that it started out as a small event for beginners but has now become an event with tandems and points etc…you have to look at the big picture. Howard is in the business to make money, end of story. If we brought down some people, dicked around for 5 hrs, and that was it, he most likely wouldn’t be interested in holding any more events. What everyone has to realize is the cars will be split up in to groups of those who are competing and those who aren’t. As far as track time is concerned, everyone will get their fair share. I am not convinced we will get as many people from this area as we will other areas. People are starting to come up with different excuses for not drifting in the event such as “my car won’t be done” or “there is sand in my vagina” etc. SO…if we get 20-30 cars pre-registered for our area then we will make damn sure there will be track time.
Like I said before, we started this whole thing as a way to gain access to a drifting location. But now we have some real opportunity to bring the drift scene to our area. I mean look at Englishtown Raceway, it started the same way.
I really hope we do get some people from our area to attend, in fact that was our hope from the beginning. We haven’t forgot the original goal, so don’t worry.
I appreciate the input!
Ok I am more on page with you now. I haz sand in my vagina about actual drifting in my car(or trying to anyway), but I will be at every event helping out as needed. I knew there were a few people coming for Mass. and Conn. but i thought that was only two or three and I thought there were alot more noobs going from around here.
