Only thing I heard for sure was the white RX7 out of Sarasota got his license. It's a shame all this nonsense is going on.

ROFLMMFAO at the comments left on there

SaturnTypeR · 04-08-2008, 06:12 PM

Yea some of the comments are pretty funny.

But I know if i was escorted off the track I would be pretty pissed..but then again i was escorted off the Grand Prix Pit area

Well at least Juan got 3rd. Yeah I left comments on the thread about this on SFL, I wanted to know how Jeremy and Dan did (black and white Lowe FC's)
And that weird that too close on a tandem would be DQ..funny how D1GP rules and Nopi rule differ.. -_-; D1GP ftw

Jeremy owned whats his name in the white Z in one of their runs, the Braille Battery guy (sorry dont remember his name). I may have that one on video. Dan had trouble at first, going off the track on the first turn. But I think when he & Jeremy went, Jeremy went in the grass JUST a bit. And yesterday I was told Dan got his license.

Dan got his license b/c he made top 16 so any driver there with a provisional including the rb25 black s14 vision performance car who bought his provisional($750) automatically got there license.

Apparently dirt dropping is bad and if you do the run goes to the other competitor.

4wheeldriftS13 · 04-09-2008, 12:52 AM

Bailey - Dan got his license? awesome, and Glenn got his license *I know he got his provisional via call after Nopi Qualifying Oh well, wish I could've attended.

kpbjls1 · 04-09-2008, 09:47 AM

Yeah I qualified 1st which was awesome, and Dan qualified 16th. So that meant I had to run against Dan in the first round of top 16. The first run, which was me leading, I did pretty good but Dan admitted to straightening up twice. The second run I was a little excited and followed Dan a little close on entry to the first turn. No big deal, but I didn't take into consideration that Dan didn't get the first turn properly all day. Dan straightened up, almost went off track, I slowed down while maintaining a drift, but my line was fucked and I dirt dropped real bad, both rear tires in the dirt on the switch back on the straight. I did however link the course without straightening up, and Dan straightened again on the last turn, but... I got DQ'd. This past weekend was crazy, and I REALLY hope that the rest of the events in the series are a lot better.

Absolutely hilarious.

haha..nopi

"
If I could be one person for a day… it would have to be HAVE TO BE the one and the only MIKE PETERS. Any guy who has done nothing important in the industry and still walks around like he invented the sport, has got to be bad ass. I mean, this guy is so badass that he fines people just to prove that he is badass! I will probably be fined for wanting to be him but hey, its worth it! If I were MIKE PETERS for a day, i could yell and scream at everyone b/c they are idiots, and i am not and then fine them for being idiots!
MIKE PETERS doesnt even have to watch the runs, he basically stares at the track like a kid with A.D.D. and then picks a car randomly. MIKE PETERS doesn’t even need a proper bracket to see which car is supposed to line up and when, DAMMIT THIS GUY IS AWESOME! MIKE PETERS just makes up rule b/c he can… WHO WOULDN’T WANT TO BE HIM?! MIKE PETERS wears blue blockers on purpose, not b/c he wants to look cool!
I would rather have Dan and Tracy up on the judging stand than this guy… actually, I would rather have a person picked at random out of the spectating stands… better yet, the security guard that was directing traffic into the parking lots. Did you see how efficient that guy was, barely a line all day long… he is better qualified than MIKE PETERS! If MIKE PETERS looks back on this event as a positive event, he is sadly mistaken. Anything less than a train wreck that you had to watch is more like it!
MIKE PETERS FOR PRESIDENT!"

jonBODON · 04-09-2008, 10:12 AM

Seriously tho, mikes a cool guy.
But I would rather see Petty doing the important stuff.
Petty is the kind of guy who can make badass events, make everyone happy, and everyone would have a killer time. nopi, holla at ya boi Petty.

onezx2ner · 04-09-2008, 10:58 AM

JLo I think it was the course selection as well. Moroso isn't the best tandem course, so if both drivers aren't right on it leads to some shotty runs.
