also how many drivers are there going to be at the FSFG? I highly doubt you are gonna get 8out of40 "pro" drivers for it?
how are you going to setup the classes? predetermined alotted slots per class? or is it just show up and if you are better than everyone you get pro and if you suck you get amatuer?
don't take any of it as negative feedback, just questions I'd like answered before I attend.
thanks

I love you MattBack

Hey, If I can suggest something:
A little over a year ago, Ter-Tech had an event at hialeah speedway where they had brought out a couple cones and set them up on the straight away and had the participants practice trying to hold and connect them and then do a u-turn around the last cone and then later that day had them turn into the infield. That was my first event, entered in a bone-stock car. I had more fun that day than in any event I have ever participated in, not to mention learned A LOT that day. If you guys could setup something like this for one of the events that would rock. Or atleast the first half of the event and then let the oval whoring begin. Have some of the more experienced drivers ride along with some of the new comers to the sport and give them pointers and criticism.
Just an idea, trying to help out. Hope you can do something like that in the near future. If you need cones, people to help set it up, etc. let me know, me and my team will be more than happy to help out.
Just because it's an oval, doesn't mean you need to drift the oval. You can come up with a couple of nice technical courses if you wanted to. Stop being lazy and do something nice for the drivers. Give them a challenge, a goal, an event they can learn from.
REMEMBER: Ovals only suck if you MAKE them suck.

unless of course, it's irwindale where the entire infield is paved, and their events rule my life.
reality check.
figure 8s is something you drive when youre in a beat up schoolbus, not in a s13 drift car. sorry guys.

What all you aspiring drifters need to realize is nobody is going to build a drift track in Florida. PERIOD! If you want to drift on a road course, its going to cost you. ALOT! Unless you are willing to spend alot of money, you'll either be drifting on the street, or on an oval.

sounds good to me. u should come to the event. i am sure we could set some time aside for something like this. this is what i need positive feedback to make this event and series good. we also picked up another parkin lot, so that is 2 so far. we r still workin on tryin to get more.
