Default TRAP Does Drifting? we can.

Along with a typical selection of time trial and Open Track lapping sessions, I was thinking about including a drift competition into one of the future events I'm planing. one price gets you into the lapping session/DE event Time Trial and Drifting. It would have to be a little pricer then the average event since the drifting would require additional sanction. but if there is enough interest it might be something I can pull off. since I can't imagine a Whole day of DE at Ocala to be the much fun. but a Drift, Auto cross and time trial would really test different drivers talents.

how many Drift participants could I expect I think $90 is fair for a full day of track time. and 3 events?

good, The participation numbers will determine the budget since we've never done the logistics behind a drifting event but I am excited to get every one out on track. if we can get 2 sessions of 20 drivers we might be able to pull this thing off. that should give everybody 2-3 DE CW+CCW sessions and time for 3 competition events.

Shinmei are you registered for the rally? we are at 10 registered right now (2 days since I opened online registration) so I expect the event to be sold out pretty quick.

I have been thinking Ocala Speedway, Ocala Grand Prix is too small for a open track day. (there is no room to pass) to be honest it's narrow for a good drift competition the speedway can support 10 cars at a time on track by using the back straight and the infield cut it will make a decent roval. with the back straight a designated passing zone.

10 cars 4 DE sessions Solo, instructors group one, and two. if we play our cards right everyone can get close to 1 hour of drivers ed and a time trial run at lunch 1 morning session and one afternoon session. and designate 2 hours for a double elmination Drift event. at the end.
