Friday Lakeland meet:)
The Auburndale show Friday opened gates at 5pm for everyone. Gates were open for participants at 10am. The enjuku team didn't start the drifting until most of the people that were with their team and entourage were present. Then they had to do a walk thru of the track, car inspections, and ride alongs. It took more than 2 hours and it ran until pretty much everyone was getting tired. Five O was being retarded about people staying there but go figure. Saturday had drifting all day long and some pocket rocket stunt team doing tricks. Track Owner took it upon themselves to shut the gates and have everone leave. Even the event coordinators had to leave. The head track lady closed everything and pretty much screwed over everyone by not giving any explanation to the participants and spectators + cutting out so early. From what I know the hotline for the show was blowin up after 3 with people asking for directions and calling to make sure things were still on and saying they were stuck in traffic due to accidents. Friday produced some serious accidents in the central florida area, one dude had a bike fold up on him on I4 word has it like a pocket knife. Who knows. Drifting was awesome at the event though. There is possibly talk of a more genre focused event for drifting or the like thereof in the future to be held elsewhere than Auburndale Speedway. Check out the drifting forums for more info on what happened with the track owners and stuff.

To Date:
DGTrials has held 6 public events in Ocala, Bradenton, and St Pete
DGtrials has held 1 event in Hialeah
Ter-Tech has held maybe 4-5 events in Hialeah
Miles held at least 3 events at the USA speedway in Lakeland.
Drifting is here to stay, it's been here, and it's not going anywhere. We will not let some 80 year old grandma give us grief. Nice facility, too bad I will NEVER go back. Negative press is a bitch.

Was that the 11 sec Cobra that was looking for a run? If so let him know I told him he's slow.
