(I dont know who PM'ed you, but the problem is that about 10 people said they would talk to them- too many of this and its going to irritate people/end the idea before we get an event)


Well, the meeting- information they had was:

Track will have drifting.
Not until May or later (waiting on DoT to remove property- the owners currently do not have access to the oval)
It will be cheap to drive.
Events will be Sunday from 9am-3pm or something close.
Cars will have to pass tech - but no clarification on what that is.
Tandem he mentioned needed firesuit/gloves... but didnt say cage- though I think he will require it.
There will be driver's meetings prior to driving, miss it - dont drive.
There will be rules, break them, good bye.
There will be concession open (though we usually bring our own food.
He is hoping to attract general spectactors by having promotional demos during saturday night with a few of the better drivers- who will NOT get paid, but will NOT be charged to drive it.
Track is smaller than OSW/Desoto, with a more mild bank.

As far as I know I am the point-man still, but if they keep telling us we both are it will be point-less.
He is very adamant that its HIS WAY, and he doesn't care about other venues event styles. We will see how it goes from here.

There is/should be a Facebook group "Showtime Drifting" by Friday. This will be the MAIN source of information moving forward with this track. If you want to know, get in it.
