When: Sept 4
Time: 7pm-Midnight (get there early for Tech)
Who: YOU!
Cost: 10 bucks to enter, 25 to drive (i.e. spectators are 10 bucks, drivers are 35)
What you get: This isnt a 'skid pad' event. We will be utilizing the back section of the road course (the horse shoe/hair pin) and a part of the back skid pad. There will be a layout of sorts setup, not to the extent of one which you have to turn here or there but, it will not be a 'free for all/open to do donuts for 2 min'. In addition to drifting your entry fee will also pay for drag racing so, if you wish to hope back and forth between the two you may do so (drag racers do not have the luxury to drift.
I have requested and aerial image of the section we will be using from the track and one will be provides shortly. I have walked the section that we will be driving and I must believe it will work out quite well and satisfy everyones 'appetite'.
p.s. Keep in mind that there will be 1-2 drifting events a month at CFRC that will be coinciding on Friday nights with the drag races. There will also be an every other month event on the huge skid pad. In it's current state [the large back strech/skid pad] of fresh asphalt the track is going to put off any large scale events until after the new year. For the time being though, the 1-2 events per month should be sufficient for everyone.
If you have any questions, please ask or, directly contact the track.

Did I mention that tandem is allowed? Because it is.
Standard rules apply (no different then ter-tech). Must have cage with door bars, closed windows (or arm strap [windows must be rolled up 3/4 of the way if you do not own arm straps]), no passengers during tandem. If you have passed tech for OSW or Ter-Tech, etc you should be fine here as well. If you wish to tandem, come see ME at the track.
Went out to the track today with my photog, I should have pictures of the course boundaries and layout up either tonight or in the AM.

gonna try to have at least 2 of the friday nitght drift/drag events a month. The might be consectutive or every other. You will have plenty of heads up though so no worries.
copy/pasted from another forum
Few updated pictures.
First here is the proposed road course that was discussed at the meeting 2 months ago. I'm not aware of any changes but I haven’t really discussed the road course setup with Pete so it might change.
The green line is the proposed path of the road course. Pits are yellow and the entrance to and exit from are red arrows. What is not in the picture is there will be a back entrance to the north of the track (north is on the bottom, south is on top) where the pallet yard is (for those of you that have been there you know what I mean). The section that was prone to flooding during rain has been extended so the hairpin/horseshoe section is deeper (can be seen in the bottom let corner of the image). For those that were at the meeting the proposed entrance onto the 1/8 mile from the front stretch (by the office) is going to be rounded so it isn’t an abrupt 90. The stretch that runs behind the pond is actually a lot wider than I expected it to be (roughly 2 1/2 - 3 cars wide). The new back stretch is insanely fast. I could hit about 80ish in my car but I’m setup for drifting so those that have more grip through the apex should be able to hit well over 100 in top of 3rd/bottom 4th. Total length (from me driving it in my truck) is right around 1.5 miles. Should be a lot of fun and exactly what central Florida needs.
Moving on to drifting....
Just to put everything in perspective distance/size wise (this applies to the image above obviously), the 2 orange lines are 1/8 mile apart. Obviously the perspective of the photo is kind of construed but it gets the point across. The red arrows are the entrances onto the drift sections from pre-grid.
(A) Will be the section of the track that will be used when drifting runs along with drag races on Friday night. The track is going to try and do 2 events a month depending on the schedule. Don't take that as every other week or 2 weeks in a row, rest assured though everyone will know well in advance as to dates. The back skid pad section looks small in the pic but it is the same size as the horseshoe (minus the dirt). Plenty of room to play around, more surface area then the skid pad and back section of the road course we were initially on. We will stage with the drag racers (drifters will be in lane 1).
I can’t comment on costs for the road course but for Friday night drifting it is 35 to drive (per tech sheet) and 10 bucks to get in the door to spectate.
(B) Is the section of track that will be used for the bimonthly (every other) events. As of right now, the first one will be after the New Year. From pacing it out from top to bottom it's over 200 yards. The widest part of the back stretch (not taking the 'box' into consideration) is 55 yards at its widest point and 30ish at its narrowest. No word on cost but it will be right around what previous central Florida events cost.
Sorry for this crappy paint shopped pics, I’m not very artistic and it doesn’t help when I’m on a laptop with no mouse. When my roommate gets off work tomorrow I will get him to do something that is actually tolerable to the human eye. I just wanted to get pics up because tomorrow (it is Thurs now after all) is the drift event.
If I hear any additional scoop that needs to be passed before Friday night I’ll be sure to pass it on but for right now, everything seems solid for the drift event Friday.
