Who's drifting

[BRIGGS]

@enyaw

To have a pro event, we need a pool of at least 40 cars/drivers with FULLY preped cars which includes cage, fire suits, loads of wheels and tires, possibly a pit crew.

How many here can put up their hands and say that they have a car ready to have a pro series with tandem drifting? Setting up a car for Pro requires a lot more money than you think.

Most people drifting now have the basics: suspension, sr20/kat, lsd. On top of that, you will need to add: $1500 - $2000 for a cage, $1000+ for fire suit, $200+ for gloves, $200+ for shoes, $500+ for helmet. Then you have to factor in the cost of the events, the tires that you will go though, gas money…

If you have all that already, you can always goto DMCC. They’ve all been drifting for 2 years and they all have FULLY prepped cars with some decent skill and tandem experience. I know some of us have the skill to compete with them but overall, we (as in Ontario) have a long way to go. An Amateur series (in our opinion) is the best thing to do right now. This will help prepare the drivers for a pro series not only with the skill required to drive the car but also with a general layout of how a pro competition series will run throughout the day and the season.

Still think Ontario is ready for a Pro series?

The only thing I’m missing is a pit crew…

Where do I sign up!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Lets get this going!!!
