Default Gymkhana at nopi!?

Got an email from nopi it'll be in Miami this year no drifting tho just gymkahana or what ever anyone gona do this? I'm thinking about it figured it would be worth the time to try something like that

anyways here is the info if anyone is interested

GYMKHANA
Gymkhana can best be summed up as a hybrid of autocross and drifting. Utilizing a pre-defined course outlined by cones, a driver races against the clock. Whereas the purpose of an autocross is to achieve a fluid motion without losing traction, Gymkhana emphasizes vehicle momentum via drifting through the turns. Gymkhana's courses are more complex and tighter than autocross courses with the addition of obstacles including figure 8's, pointer cones (to perform 360's), handbrake style turns and loop-back slaloms to name a few. Key attributes to setting good lap times are vehicle preparation, driving techniques and course memorization. As a result, Gymkhana caters to all types of vehicles from factory stock Toyota Corollas to modified Dodge Vipers.
There will be a Gymkhana Program at 6 events this year (listed below).
TECH CARD Costs - $55 pre reg/$65 Day of show and includes one crew pass


These will be an open competitions... NO CURRENT PRO DRIVERS (FD or D1)

Prize money TBA.
