For the local folk... there is a 2nd annual Drift Day Competition June 26-27 in Fontana Calif. It will be held at: CALIFORNIA SPEEDWAY 9300 CHERRY AVENUE FONTANA CA 92335 PUblic entrance time 8:30 a.m.-5 General admission is $5.00 each day. Saturday Drifting $ 100.00 Sunday Drifting $70.00 Last years event was a ton of fun! If you see me there stop me and say "HI" --if your in the area.
Sean, if see these cars I'll take pictures and shoot some short video! So ck the site next week Monday for that, I'll put it in this thread.
You know today I drove 2 hours to get there and my battery went dead. So this is all I go and I could just puke. I locked my keys and cell phone in the car at the track too. My god the burning in my eyes from 80 cars smoking tires was enough to take all my mascara off and it was water proof! I should have stayed home. One of the photographers will send me the few that I'm missing that I really wanted to shoot.
Sean you should go with me sometime it really is fun to watch. Opening a drift school would be ideal right now! Man the money would roll in! Most of these guys need lessons, they have tons of potential and while they are learning it's fun to watch! Who knows....The Drift Olympics?
when is the next event? I love watching cars drift, i think it is really tough to hold a slide like that for a long time with another car RIGHT next to you when u do it, I would love to check one out
Okay. BTW nice poster if you collect in the magazine I pkd up last night of Mazda RX7, two Nissan Silvia's doing the "Drift"! It's on like King Kong! It's a crazy sport! www.formulaD.com
