pricey BUT you get a photo.
that makes it worth it.
WAY TOO MUCH IMO.
watch the drift bible, go hit some spots and try to build skill: alot cheaper.
"time is money"
not to many people get paid on their personal time( unless you sling crack)
just my cents.

+1 except I tried doing that and only tried 3 or 4 drifts because I was so umcomfortable with cops and crashing on my mind, and I didn't really get any better.

I talked to Matt about this last night. He made a good point. Getting TWO HOURS OF UTTER DRIVING and practice in rather than hopping around from spot to spot and being nervous and getting MAYBE 5 minutes of pure practice in. It would be worth it if affordable.

$350 is way steep....that's at least four ddays
It would have to be on an awesome track with free/almost free tires and mounting available to be worth it. For that cash, I'd rather go run at sebring.

That's total bullshit, why waste money when you supply pretty much everything, except the track...

you can rent out the huge skid pad at sebring. i think they can wet it down too. cost is about $2000 a day. anyone up for setting up sponsors and getting things going. i know nothing about this.

And you probably get the same amount of track time at 4 DDays.
