Default Miami Sl!de Experience

first ya, thanks eric for the place and the food the first night. the event was pretty hot as well, nice open area at the one end for amazingly nice sweepers, and then some freestyle courses by most drivers. I think most had great time.
Good Stuff to remember:
-the white right hand drive, turboed s14 that tried to pull a DALE into the pole
-the FR integra that had some hot dirfts
-the few tandem runs but eric+matt, and bill+taylor both well done
-the shopping cart boots at wal-mart
-the hella assriding trip back....

its almost as fun rollin in a group of 5/6 240s as it is to drift lol.... anywho shit was hot, thanks matt for the run, the locker is god

damn, so that's what goes on in these "caravans"
...I had a pretty good time even though it was a long drive, how did the final numbers turn out? Seemed like there were more drivers from tampa than anywhere else.
I liked the small run group and open format though, good seat time

yep there was a fr integra. It had the driveline from a CRV with a welded center diff and disabled the power to the front to make it rwd... HOT!

many thanks to DG trials for putting this on. Much fun destroying tires....

Thanks everyone for coming out to the event!!! It got off to a rough start again, but YOU GUYS, the participants, made it happen. hats off to everyone again for no major crashes or problems, no dead spectators, no mad location owners, no fights, and no missing equipments at the end of the day!!

I'm looking forward to bringing another one of these events to Tampa soon, hang in there guys~

I am so happy i drove down there for this! I improved some from D Day and I owe it to DG Trials and the dudes that own this track and think drifting is cool. hehehe

I strongly recommend anyone who is into drifting or says they are into drifting to attend these events! It's the only way!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks to Eric for his hospitality, thank you to the participants mainly those who drove from tampa and orlando (we would have had very few drivers if it weren't for the travelers), thank you for not making fun of me, thank you Matt for patiently teaching me (and I think you did so for others as well).

I'm happy, but now I sleep. So tired!

ive seen the pics, looks like 60-70% of the cars there are from the tampa area. matt please try and move the majority of the events up to this area...there is obviously more enthusiasts up here...not to mention no 4-5 hour drive.

also its great and all that we have drift events now, but is it necessary to have one every 2 weeks? kinda takes the magic out of it i'd think.


dont wanna sound bitchy m8 just offering some suggestions. im sure u know most of this.
