I'll be driving it, along with anyone else who gets the class D license requirement for it. (they classify it as a big motorhome)

No thanks on the drifting

I hope you drift into a wall and your motorhome explodes....

Sorry, just figured I'd say something different than the rest. Good luck man, looks like you'll be having a ton of fun. I wasn't even aware that drifting had become so popular as to warrant two team cars and a huge transport rig. Where do the drifting events take place? You mentioned Englishtown, I'd assume that the events would take place on the oval. Seems kind of boring though if that's the case though.

Well.

A gander on over to www.drifting.com shows just how popular this fad has become.

The SCCA formula d rounds are at
1) wall speedway in new jersey


2) road atlanta in georgia


3) some place in houston texas


4) sonoma california infineon raceway (sears point i think?)


5) irwindale california


6) chicago, illinois but i don't have pics

as well as drift showoff, world drift cahllenge, D1GP (the big one over in japan) www.d1gp.com
and other things like that.

We have like 15+ events already planned, and this doesn't even include the car shows and stuff. I guess i'm gonna get used to living in the rig.

Zate: The space on the car would be limited to the rear 1/4 windows, something like what We did for JR's car back in the day. You can talk to John about that.
