GUILTY... I took two cans of RedBull. Sorry I dont think I heard the announcement about that. I'll bring two to the next event.

The sandwich thing was cool. (That I heard) Very nice of Antlets wifey to do that. Kick ass gesture. Good to see things like that. Im sun burnt as hell. Had a good time over all.

One thing that scared me ALL DAY. People Manji drifting or trying to. Like I told you yesterday, It takes one jackass to fuck up and kill/injure people. Theres only maybe 20-30 feet from the track to the grass. Someone loses control that fence is not far. from the track.

Suggestion: Make it very clear that there should be NO Manji drifing on that straight. If you are seen, your day is over ! Plain and simple.

Anything in the works for a evening drift event ? That would be totally hot..

Not sure for the correct term, but what is it considered to manji after a recovery?

I remember one time doing a little off roading after *trying* to recover the oval.

other than that, some people were totally trying to manji on purpose.

Out of control ? That I can understand but there were people doing it on purpose.. it's just dangerous.

1. It was explained very clearly that NO MANJI was allowed on the front straight-away. Recovery from the oval is one thing, but by the time you are 1/2 way to the second part of the oval, you should have gained control. I know it was said "NO MANJI", because it was ME that brought it up in the drivers meeting.

2. Tiger racing: Race team out of Atlanta (I think)....on the wait list for Formula D...cool guys
